The stickies made more money out of the US dollar than the yanks did, all thanks to the printing press in China.....De Rossa is a coot, ask him who bombed the Para barracks in the UK 1972, when they managed to kill a couple of priests and a few cleaners............   they sure did, wasnt all printed in china, printed in cork and in gardiner place in dublin. they also had guys involved with passports and driving licenses. they made the provos look like boys been honest.   de rossa is nothing but a **** in my opinion! i could go on but ybig isnt a place to talk about the sticks

The story is that DeRossa rang the warning in, but because of his studder, by the time he got it out the yoke had gone of,,,,,,,


But of course this is all here say, time to move on

The IRAs Disappeared on Tomorrow night on RTE. Will Adams be f**ked politically? Surely there'll be a move to oust him completely as leader at this stage?

Obviously what he says with re to Sinn Fein is all good honest truthfulness and well considered statements.

I'm sure Hughes's comments will be lapped up though by the loyalist/unionist community and the majority in the south as it fits a certain agenda down in the 26.

When one member of an organisation is ratting out another member of an organisation (particularly post-humusly) then I think it has to be taken with a pinch of salt.

People will jump on this but I think they would be foolish to take the views of anti agreement republicans as gospel

Yeah because the leader of a political party being involved in a murder will get huge coverage because it fits "a certain agenda"   Think about what you are trying to say for a second. Imagine Ed Milliband, John Boehner or Michael Martin being linked to a murder? When Big Gerry is linked to a murder, any furore "fits a certain agenda".Â

Stupid comparison comparing leaders from stable democracies to one who led a party through and out of a bloody civil conflict.

Imagine one of the 20th centuries greatest leaders Nelson Mandela being linked to a murder!!

In any piece of evidence the veracity needs to be examined and evaluated and part of this is evaluating the source and their reliability, motivation, biase etc. it is legitimate to have genuine concerns in this case. I don't support SF but i have heard some of the sh*t concocted here in Derry by anti agreement republicans against sf members so I know they have an agenda and a policy of damaging SF to further that agenda

Don't get me wrong I'm not pro Sinn Fein by any stretch of the imagination but I just find it sickening that whatever they try to do is met with claims of 'yous boys are former terrorists and not to be trusted' but that when Hughes speaks, who is from the very same background and was involved in the very same conflict his word is taken as gospel......It's taken as gospel because it fits an agenda.

The north was a messed up place from the 60s right through to the 90s and Sinn Fein have come out of it with lots of support and a mandate based on non-violence, dialogue and working towards a united Ireland through peaceful means.

Fair enough if people don't want the united Ireland thing but to constantly lambast Sinn Fein and to jump on quotes from someone who was pro violence and quite frankly a bit mad in order to use it as 'proof' about how bad Gerry Adams is/was is hyprotical, sad and counterproductive.
