I was quite surprised at the reaction of the Report by Nuala O'Loan on Collusion and the murder of innocent people during the dreadful Troubles in the North of Ireland.

My surprise is like that of the Haughey Repoirt and corruption, it proves that inspite of the fact that we all know, denial takes over.

Some years ago, Nuala O'Loan gave a report on the 1998 Omagh bombing. Her reporr then was thorough and very well investigated. Afterwards, Ronnie Flanagan, the then Chief Constable of the RUC, when he said in public 'I will commit suicide if one single statement of this report is true'. At that time Nuala O'Loan criticised the handling by the RUC before and after the Omagh bombing. Nuala O'Loan had come across serious evidence that the RUC ignored vital information which may have prevented the attack.
Do not forget that the Gardai Special Branch have serious matters to answer on this matter too. read full story / add a comment

The Irish Primary School Principals have press-released asking Parents
of Primary school-children not to contribute cash to the upkeep and building
funds of their schools in September 2007.

This is because they would like the State to meet the exorbitant costs
of mantaining and renovating of schools. Each year we are asked to
contribute money through fund-raising drives, 'voluntary' contributions
and sales (raffles, bread sales, shows) and we do.

Last Tuesday in his State of the Union address, Bush was explicit about the future of the US war machine in Iraq and further afield : "to design and establish a volunteer civilian reserve corps. Such a corps would function much like our military reserve. It would ease the burden on the Armed Forces by allowing us to hire civilians with critical skills to serve on missions abroad when America needs them". However, this force, this outsourcing of privateers is already doing its lethal work in Iraq and Afghanistan, read full story / add a comment

The recent Special Branch buck passing fiasco is proof that the PSNI is far from reformed.

As relatives of those murdered by UVF serial killers under the thumb of Special branch have found out,, Special branch are still in no mood for admitting culpability in murder.

Hugh Orde has said it wouldn't happen on his watch, but under his watch, Johnny Adair's 'C' company were allowed free reign to murder unchallenged. read full story / add a comment
