Letter to various leaders

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | press release author Tuesday May 30, 2006 15:14author by John Black - noneauthor email belfastnorthernirelandblue at yahoo dot co dot uk Report this post to the editors

Telling Sinn Fein where to get off.

I have sent the following letter to the various leaders involved with the Peace Process in Northern Ireland. I am asking for an explaination, why the people of Ulster are being forced into allowing known terrorists, to help govern the country that they have tried to destroy for thirty years. As yet I have not received a reply from any of them. Is the question to difficult to answer or maybe there isn't one.

Hi

I thought you might like to read a letter I have sent to various people, President George Bush, Tony Blair, David Cameron, Berti Ahern, the D.U.P., U.U.P. and Sinn Fein, amongst others.

RE: Northern Ireland Assembly
THREE HEADLINES IN THE NEWSPAPERS

SHOCK ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE WHITE HOUSE, PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSH, HAS
APPOINTED OSAMA BIN LADEN AS HIS SECRETARY OF DEFENCE.

SHOCK ANNOUNCEMENT FROM 10 DOWNING STREET, THE PRIME MINISTER, TONY
BLAIR HAS APPOINTED ABU-MUSAH AL-ZARQAWI AS HIS DEFENCE SECRETARY.

SHOCK ANNOUNCEMENT FROM STORMONT, IT HAS BEEN AGREED THAT MARTIN
McGUINNESS IS APPOINTED AS MINISTER OF EDUCATION

Could anyone tell me which is the odd one out? All three men are well
known terrorists, leading their own illegal groups of ruthless armed
men. They are all guilty of directing the aims of their individual
organisations in terror and all three, has the blood of many innocent men,
women and children on their hands.

Yes you've guessed right. It's the third headline; Martin McGuinness
doesn't have a beard. Only kidding. The first two are beyond the
realms of fantasy. How ever the third headline is a fact. It happened.
Now the same Director of Terrorism, is actually looking to become the
Deputy First Minister in the Northern Ireland assembly. All this with the
backing of both the British and Irish Prime Ministers and their
governments.

Why has this been allowed to happen? No other civilised country in the
world, would put up with this nonsense. So why is it being forced on
to the good people of Ulster and pressure being put on the Democratic
Unionist Party, to engage in talks with known terrorists.

How can someone who has tried to destroy our country, our way of life,
our culture, and heritage, to the point of taking up weapons,
slaughtering men, women and children and bombing our towns and cities into
rubble, suddenly change their minds and say they now want to help govern
it. It can't be done; it's a contradiction of terms.

While they are advocating participating in government, they continue to
make inflammatory speeches, saying a United Ireland is achievable in
their lifetimes.

To achieve a place around the negotiating table and to take a minor
role in government, thirty years, the same number of years, they subjected
the people to their campaign of violence, without any I.R.A. activity,
paramilitary or criminal. Then and only then, another thirty years,
when all those men and women who took part in that violence, are dead and
buried, before they can take a major role in running our Province.

It's about time somebody spelt it out to Adams and his merry men, that
the only this can work, is to agree to the above time scale. Unionists
stop pussyfooting around and tell them , it would be an insult to all
the innocent people, murdered by these so-called peacemakers, to allow
any of them near the Assembly

The time has come to stand up and be counted. The D.U.P. are now our
last line of defence, against the republican threat to our whole way of
life.

Yours truly

John

Is Black your real surname? I ask because the UFF used the name Captain Black when they were claiming responsibility for murdering Catholics. Are you not at all bothered that you have been ruled all of your life by British Governments who have committed murder on an industrial scale internationally? Is it a case of kill a couple of thousand people and you are a terrorist but kill millions and you are a statesman?

The telling sentence is- Before they can have a major role in running our province- kind of puts a lot of people in their proper place dont you think. fact is that sooner or later and hopefully sooner, world events will force a solution on not only Northern I reland but the Middle East and so much of Africa.Basically anywhere that the English managed to get into and screw up royally, pardon the pun.

You state that power sharing will destroy "our country" Define "our"

I think that John is taking a very one sided view . He is looking at the world through blue tinted specticles.
