Privileged ‘freedom fighting’ on a global scale

FASCINATING how so many privileged rich kids need to play at being terrorists.

Osama Bin Laden came from one of the wealthiest clans of builders/speculators in in the world. The hijackers on 9-11 were all very privileged, as is now unrepentant Provo, Rose Dugdale (RTÉ Radio 1 with John Murray, and TG4). Her Provo IRA spent its time murdering Irish people — police officers, North and South, including six gardaí, as well as hundreds of civilians.

Indeed her Provo IRA murdered more Catholics than did the UDA.

She blames the RUC but the Provo IRA killed many more.

Some ‘freedom fighters’ indeed.

And when will TG4 give us even one documentary on brave women or Catholics in the RUC, instead of yet another uncritical, indeed fawning treatment of IRA terror?

Time to challenge the systematic re-writing of history to suit the Provo chiefs and to hear all sides from our tangled past.
