Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Sinn Fein and their youth troop have no right to celebrate Booby Sands memory,Booby Sands died for a United Ireland and Prisoner of War status,two things the provisionals have sold out and campaign against
Even Bobby Sands family have withdrew their support for SF,on the grounds they sold out his memory
Anti republican Persistence, Would be a more Appropriate name for the past letter, Raymond mc Cartney will be speaking at this years Fergal O'Hanlon Memorial Lecture, perhaps you will wish to discuss present Republican Opinion with him in our Questions and answers section ,Otherwise Do something Positive for yourself that commerates these Brave Volunteers And dont be trying to stop the Determination of Irelands Youth in Commerating 1916 and 1981 in the Educational and informative way that No Hunger striker Family or Easter Rising Family Do Or Have a Problem with.
Republicans who represent what is true of the movement,would not support or help a party which is opportunist,careerist and supports British rule in Ireland,what did Bobby Sands die for.political status and a united ireland,two things sinn Fein and their youth group campaign against.
Sinn Fein signed the GFA which supports British rule,freestatism and criminalises POWs,all for a more 'constitutional Northern Ireland',pardon me but bollox
Real Republicans will continue to fight the good fight for a united Ireland and socialism
Gerry Adams is a modern day Michael Collins,a man who continues the cycle of treachery
Up the real faction of the IRA
Up Oglaigh na hEireann
i believe that sinn fein should not only answer the youth's question of "who was bobby sands", but the youth in turn should ask "what did bobby sands die for". i wonder if the hunger strikers really died for sinn fein to be part of stormont, part of the british crown's payroll, the surrender of the provos, the current sinn fein's attitude of "there are no republican prisoners today", the high-ranking sin fein touts, and the removing of articles 2 and 3 of the constitution.......all being sold as the way for irish freedom when the fact remains that there are more british soldiers in the north than there is in iraq and sinn fein pulls in millions of pounds into their political macine's bank account.
If Irish republicans write into indymedia slating 'the provisional movement' for their tactics i believe they must produce a viable alternative to politics.
the real or continuity IRA have so far failed to do this.
they lack support leadership and creditability and apart from their postings on indymedia and other such websites, they are doing nothing constructive to struggle for a 32 county democratic socialist republic.
so in order to voice a complaint, point out hypocrisy, or attempt to announce that one will not blindly "trust the leadership" of any political party......one must instantly produce an alternative to be able to make such opionions? to question motives? to think independently outside the box? if that is the case, then half of indymedia ireland should be erased as invalid, without leadership, without following etc.
