The point being the police named individuals and took action against them. IMO it was a disgrace which deserves a full apology to all concerned. We have to get away from this untouchable attitude, no natter who it is that breaks the law has to be caught. Holding people above suspicion because they are the favourite terrorist organisation is wrong. "And the government knew all about these non-existent stocks of WMDs in Iraq?" Sure they knew, they knew they were wrong, but to suggest TB has any agenda on this issue is wrong. TB wants to dump NI like a hot stone, why has he given SF so many chances. SF/IRA wants to be part of a democracy and part of that not holding yourself above the law or being your own law maker. The bottom line is that loyalist would not have the intelligence to know the details that the robbers knew. If you think that loyalists can walk Poleglass and Twinbrook unnoticed you are seriously wrong. I can understand how people can be sceptical of the government but only to a point.
