Yesterday, British soldiers that murdered captured IRA men at Clonoe were officially exonerated.
Irish Government are still acquiescing to British power and assisting in the implementation of double standards.
But then Northern Nationalists never mattered to Irish Gov.

As Conor McGregor wants to raise his profile as an advocate for Ireland, let’s remember the occasion he wore a poppy, an emblem commemorating the British Army.

Weir is former RUC officer, who cooperated with producers of documentary “Unquiet Graves” covering RUC & UVF murderous campaign.
He also accused British Military Intelligence of attempting to get Glenanne Gang to attack Beleeks Primary School, to massacre children.
But no rush to investigate that.

Irish Gov’s refusal to provide prospectus for Unity, because it’s not in their electoral interests, is biggest barrier to achieving polls advocating U.I.
Most significant aspect of Lucid poll, wasn’t 41% would support Unity referendum if called THIS WEEK but 53% that aspire to UI in next 20years.

They controlled the narrative and acted with impunity.

Both Labour & Conservative Gov.s engaged in murder in the North.
It is in interests of both to continue to cover it up.
They will never admit to how RUC, MI5 & British Military, directed, advised and actively cooperated with Loyalist Paramilitaries, to achieve political objectives, using murder.

A barbary ape skull was discovered during excavations of Eamhain Mhacha outside Armagh city.
The skull was carbon dated to 390 to 20 BC.
This would suggest that even from the early Iron Age, Ireland had been trading for North African goods.
