Subject: RE: BS: IRA ends armed campaign
Listening and reading with interest. As for those in the Irish Republic not being interested in Irish unity ! I spent the best part of the year going around these counties and believe me, anyone would be proud at the numbers we see there. And our speakers are not having to ask the people to support us in our wish for unity, it comes from the floor. Christ, even one local priest said he would be pleased such numbers in his chapel of a Sunday. Take it from the desire is there. Some of the most sucessful active service units were from the Irish republic, we didn't have to go down and arm lock them. Yet again voices at the keyboards, we are on the ground and I am not making it up. Don't stress me today above all days, I am taking in the news that the Royal Irish Regiment home battalions are being disbanded. Another scalp thank you, B Specials 1920-70 Ulster defence Regiment 1970 -92.Royal Irish Constabulary 1922 - 2001. The Royal Irish Regiment 1992 - 2005.Thanks Mr. Blair you made us promises three weeks ago and you are proving a man of your word.
