Regarding the McCartney murder you refer to the IRA men taking him out kill him. Those involved in this action were not acting as a unit of the Provisional Irish Republican Army, please stop putting it across as if they were. Regarding the statement, many have mixed views about it. But we all have to stand by the leadership's decision. It's a sad time for many tonight, when they recall the loss of loved ones. And that's on all sides. Much thought went into this statement and it's the combined views of all active service units who have been involved in today's outcome for the past two months.It is over make no doubt about that. I watch with interest as the UVF & UDA both said they exist because of the Republican threat through an armed struggle. There is a serious turf war going on at present here between them over control of drug ridden areas. approx 36 families connected to those involved have been put out of their homes in the past eight days.Many may not agree with me, but I feel we had a just cause over the past 35 years. I lived here all my life and can remember in the 1960's catholics not being allowed to own a house, get work or a vote. The British government ingored these basic rights and from that grew a generation that fought for it.I am not going into the debate of, this one died and that one died. We all lost great friends and none of us were without fault. Sad we had to rise to this, but that's the way it was.
