Subject: RE: BS: Have a Glorious Twelfth! (Drumcree Parade)
I know what The Irish Times said and have said it doesn't matter who started it - unlike you I haven't taken sides
I have also said that this is only a small part of the cycle of violence that is as old as the Six County State itself and is a direct result of political situation pertaining there
Trying to dissacociate this violence from its political cases in order to blame 'the other side' and in particular, children, is as despicable as any of your arguments - every bit as spineless as blaming a handful of soldiers rather than the officers who were, or should have been responsible for the act of murder of 14 demonstrators on Bloody Sunday
The overall cause of both is a result of the political situation still existing in the state and directly caused by the annual provocation that takes place there
You have seen a description of that provocation AND YOU STILL REMAIN SILENT - which is no different than supporting, it as you always have.
THE END
