The owner of the public house was serving British soldiers and had received four verbal warnings for his activty. This should have been enough. When the device became unstable, the volunteer remained with it in an attempt to remove the blaster cap after the warning had been ignored by several customers. Another volunteer cleared the area. He did not leave the device and walk away and leave those within the building to it. If the owner of the building had acted in a responsible manner and accepted the verbal warnings this would not have had to take place.Regarding the 1994 ceasefire it was not PIRA that negotiated this ceasefire it was two of John Majors men that came to them. You will never know just how close the British government was to breaking in 1994, many felt at the time there should have been a greater push by PIRA. Well that was then, its a long time ago.Take the events since then as positive.
