I have stated on more than one occasion on this site my desire to pursue peace in MY country and welcomed July's statement that the war is over. I have stated on this site regret at the loss of life during the armed struggle. I have stated on this site I have no support for dissident Republican groups. I have stated on this site that the murder of Robert McCarntney was wrong. What the hell more from me do you want ? All I get is events of 30 years ago being thrown in my face and although I state regret and have echoed the apology, still it's not enough. Regarding your remark about a cynical campaign Keith, is your friend here the only victim ? Has he stated his regret ? If anyone makes verbal attacks on the Provisionals I will retaliate. I suppose now I am at fault for being a Republican.
