Aftermath of the Belturbet Bomb, County Cavan, December 28, 1972

RTÉ Investigates – Belturbet: A Bomb That Time Forgot.

RTÉ Investigates writes:

In 1972, just three days after Christmas, a no-warning car bomb killed two teenagers and injured nine others in Belturbet County.Cavan. In a special documentary RTÉ Investigates uncovers a crippling lack of trust between police services north and south, questions the political will to bring those behind the Belturbet bomb to justice, and reveals new evidence that British security forces failed to act on credible information, allowing militant loyalists to operate freely in South Fermanagh.

        Just so everyone is clear.

        You are now admitting that Sinn Fein and the IRA are equivalent?
        SF=IRA and IRA=SF

    …I always assumed that SF were the political wing of the provisional IRA…their ‘armalite in one hand and a ballot box in the other’ was a version of the realisation within the movement that ‘without a revolutionary theory you cannot have a revolutionary movement’…

    Interesting how a story concerning the British murder machine brings out a couple of Sinn Fein bashers. The war is over, folks.

      Jaysus- what I am taking from this is you’ve been on online comment fora since 2012 Giggidy?! FFS – is this your life? Sweet Jesus.

      Oh, and I have noted Charage appears to be a nasty so and so. Homophobic to boot.

      But still, 2012! Get a life.

          Seriously Giggidy. I feel sorry for you.

          I am still going to have my fun with you though! It’s all you have.

          Seriously though. Nuts.

      Oh – well now, now who is “scraping the website” – you are so inconsistent in your arguements that it is genuinely comical.
