Subject: RE: BS: Sorry, yet another NI thread
Guest Nick you said, "If I am not mistaken, Willie Frazer lost a few family / relatives during the Troubles and of course that can make someone bitter and vengeful, especially if these things happen when you're a child and that's your whole reality, your whole view of life."

Republican families feel the same too about loosing their relatives through the troubles, but their Websites are not anti Loyalists. So far as I know from reading about Willie Frazer, he had lost his father and four other relations due to the IRA during the conflicts. So I do understand that he has been very hurt by this and I have said in some my other posts here and on other guestbooks that Willie is a victim himself, but angering the other side of the fence to him does nothing but bring hatred to Northern Ireland. It is not the road to peace blaming the IRA for everything. As I have said before I feel all sides of the fence here all played a part in the conflicts, which would includes all the IRAs, all the Loyalists & Unionists paramilitaries, and also the British Army. We are all to blame, but we all need peace for the future of Ireland so the children do not have to go through what their parents and other ancestors went through. I think that the Willie Frazer's & co are affraid of Irish unity with an Irish rule and they feel that they need to fight against it at all costs to prevent Ireland becoming together as one.
