I am a great supporter of the IRA.
If you are British and want to talk about the problem in Ireland with respect, then I too will show respect.
But if anybody puts me down right away, then I will react and go FUCK YOURSELF. It doesn't matter who you are.
If you are Irish and was born in Ireland and have a problem with me being American. Then I understand why you are angry. You may think I have no business in Irish affairs, but it wont effect my thoughts and love towards Ireland. As I said before, I will understand if any person born in Ireland has a problem with me.
Force Research Unit (FRU). One of the British armys most secret units, which infiltrated Loyalist paramilitary gangs.
Ulster Defence Regiment (UDR). The UDR was formed in 1970 to replace the disgraced B Specials police reserve. It recruited exclusively in Northern Ireland and eventually became almost 100 percent Protestant. It was merged with another military unit in 1992 to form the Royal Irish Regiment. Its battalions are being disbanded.
Brian Nelson. FRU agent who passed names and addresses of Catholics to Loyalist gangs. He was arrested in 1992. Two counts of murder against him were dropped. Nelson got a ten-year sentence for conspiracy to murder.
Ulster Defence Association (UDA). Loyalist paramilitary group, which organised pogroms against Catholics at the beginning of the Troubles.
Ulster Freedom Fighters (UFF). Another Loyalist murder gang which operated under the cover of the UDA.
Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC). Northern Irelands overwhelmingly Protestant police force. It has been renamed the Police Service of Northern Ireland. Special branch is an arm of the police in Northern Ireland.
Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF). A loyalist paramilitary group formed in 1966.
Murder was allowed and organised to protect the sectarian state
Britains role in the 30-year war in Northern Ireland was as much based on lies and brutality as the invasion and occupation of Iraq.
Far from keeping two warring sides apart, the British state either allowed or organised the murder of large numbers of mainly Catholic citizens.
From the late 1970s, various British governments backed a secret unit of the army, the Force Research Unit (FRU), along with the special branch of the RUC, supplied names, addresses and photographs of Catholic targets to Loyalist paramilitaries.
The key person supplying the information was British army agent Brian Nelson.
He infiltrated the Ulster Defence Association (UDA), the biggest Loyalist paramilitary group.
His information was responsible for the murder of at least 30 Catholics.
These included many who had no connection to the IRA, including the Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane.
Pat Finucane was murdered by the Loyalist Ulster Freedom Fighters (UFF), the UDAs death squad, in 1989.
One of his killers, Ken Barrett, was released from prison last week.
He said Brian Nelson had handed him information.
Jack Grantham, a former FRU handler, later described Nelsons role in using the UFF as an extension of the operational capability of the British army.
By that I mean refining their targeting, increasing their operational efficiency by re-arming them and using them to target known subversives which fitted the criteria and other type of person that the FRU wanted eliminating.
As Pat Finucanes son Michael Finucane says, The system worked exactly as intended, and in the British governments eyes it worked perfectly. The policy in Northern Ireland was about a government assassinating its own people.
The FRU was led by colonel Gordon Kerr.
He is now rumoured to be involved in intelligence work in occupied Iraq, as befits one of the most powerful men in British military intelligence.
