Photo Essay Summer in Northern Ireland means the Orange Order Marching Season, which brings an increase in Sectarian violence, most of it perpetrated on Catholic residents by Loyalist paramilitary. A constant barrage of bombs and projectiles are thrown over the Interface walls at their homes and thousands of police and army troops and unequal measures of surveillance will be in their communities. I spent 10 days in the Catholic neighborhood of Ardoyne in North Belfast.

Jump To Comment: 1I don't suppose you spoke to any prodestants during your visit? Its a shame to have such a one sided view, no mention of the workers who were shot while putting up the boardings or any attacks on the other side. If nothing else it cheapens the whole thing. We have to oppose sectarianism on all sides or else we are part of the problem. To completely ignore the attacks on prodestants which even Sinn Fein do not do just isn't good enough. All sectarianism is bad, there is no hierarcy of victims (as the shinners would put it).
