Thread Name: BS: Martin McGuinness (1950-2017) (Sinn Fein)
Subject: RE: BS: Martin McGuinness
Just heard a moving interview with a man who lost his son in the Warrington bomb
He praised McGuinness for the work he did on the Peace process and ended by saying "Of course, you might claim that in his early days, so was Mandela and many of those who won states Israel their freedom.
I suppose people will go to any lengths to free their country, if that's what they believed in".
I remember a similar statement being made by that gentle man who lost his daughter in the Omagh bombing
Would that we all had the same humanity and ability to forgive.
