  3. Totally agree. The IRA playing the perpetual victim card, when their murderous brutality is sidelined. Many of the crimes, like the Remembrance Day Bombing in Enniskillen in 1987 when 11 people were murdered by the IRA continue to be uninvestigated.

  4. IRA ? These cowardly soldiers murdered unarmed UK civilians by shooting them in the back, the civilians have nothing to do with the IRA. But nothing should either have be done or should have been because the IRA existed?

    Should nothing happen to a police officer who murders an innocent civilian because a random gang of diamond thieves still haven’t been caught ?

    Never have I read such a sicking article trying to excuse war crimes and smear the victims by associating them with the IRA, the lowest of the low are soldiers who commit war crimes and those that cover up and defend them.

    Fortunately Soldier F is now an old man, it is pleasing and we can all take satisfaction in knowing he has been rightly hounded about being a murdering coward nearly his whole life, may it continue for his remaining years as it is well known who he is, it’s the least this serial killers victims deserve.

  5. Ah yeah demanding justice for the cold blooded murder of 13 unarmed civilians,  6 of which were not even adults yet, is ‘IRA sympathising” . Hope soldier F gets cancer of the ass

  6. This has nothing to do with the IRA and everything to do with Soldier F and the unit he was a part of massacring civilians that had nothing to do with the IRA, and the British government covering for them. But sure, let’s just call people who don’t think that is acceptable terrorist sympathisers, suppose it worked well enough for the Israelis, at least for a while.

  7. Saw an advert on TV for something about the troubles and it had an amazing quote.

    “I love Ireland too, but I don’t think it’s worth killing people over”

    And thats how I feel about it.

  8. During the troubles more than 3,500 people were killed, of whom 52% were civilians, 32% were members of the British security forces, and 16% were members of paramilitary groups. Responsibility for deaths were divided between: republican paramilitaries 60%, loyalists 30%, and security forces 10%. Civilian casualties were caused by: loyalists 48%, republicans 39%, and the security forces 10%.

    Despite republicans being responsible for 60% of overall deaths, loyalist/British forces were responsible for 58% civilian deaths.

  9. It is depressing how far the Telegraph has fallen. It used to be a high-quality centre-right broadsheet with balanced news, alongside objective and informed opinion/analysis. I read it every day for many, many years.

    Now it’s just…..full of this agitator shite.

  10. Terrorist sympathisers need to be jailed…let’s not get it twisted. If someone is celebrating isis we jail them

  11. The reality is that the so-called “Troubles” were just another British colonial war, like the campaigns in Palestine, Malaya, Kenya, Cyprus, Aden, Oman.

  12. Totally agree,they were no better than Isis or Hamas,maiming and murdering people just going about their lives.

  14. No party to that conflict were saints.

    But it is a perfectly valid argument to point out how the demands for accountability have, especially recently, been almost exclusively pushed in one direction.

  15. Ah. The Unionist loving Torygraph posting their own bile with a biased agenda. Is anyone surprised? Just yesterday they were predicting a Reform whitewash in the Welsh by election. Once again the Unionists caught with their keks down. Deflect. Deflect. Dither. Delay. Deflect.

  16. The Brits will use their last breath to throw hate at the Irish. Country on its knees and population depleting they’ve a lot of energy for Ireland don’t they? Ye got caught rotten lads just own up.
