SOUTH TYRONE

United Kingdom

Irish nationalists achieved their goal of an independent Irish State in 1921. Some however were not satisfied, they wanted more, they wanted to rule the whole of the island. Unwilling, or unable, to coexist with the Ulster Scots of Northern Ireland, they yearned for bloody warfare, for ethnic cleansing and some even advocated genocide (some still do) These people are not Irish nationalists. These people are Irish national chauvinists, supremicists of the worst kind who seek to create some sort Gaelic 'greater Eire', a utopian 'racially pure' Irish state ecompassing the whole island. Free of 'planters' or any other dissenters, an all island republic within which all sense of Ulster's seperateness and distinctive identity would be crushed forever. Irish national chauvinism, as embodied by PIRA/SF, the 'Real' IRA or INLA/IRSP, will never triumph, Ulster will remain always. For we are separate and our culture is distinct and unique. We will never surrender, we will never be defeated. NO SURRENDER, ULSTER FUR AYE!

An Exert From the Book "The Informer" by Sean O'Callaghan former Chief of Staff of PIRA/Sinn Fein's 'Southern Command' "During this period I was involved in recruiting new PIRA volunteers. One of our main safe houses was a parochial house outside Omagh. Sometimes we used that house to initiate new members. Imagine the effect on a young uneducated country lad brought to his parochial house under cover of darkness to be inducted into the PIRA. Try telling him that the Church was not on his side. One of the local priests usually called on another house in that area where I and other PIRA men often stayed. He took great delight in asking us to relate our latest escapades. He was also forever passing on information about local Protestants: usually members or ex-members of the UDR or RUC. At least one of these was later murdered by the Provisional IRA. This was, in reality, a war against Protestants. There was a deep, ugly hatred, centuries old, behind all of this. The prods had the better farms, the better jobs that belonged by right to the Catholics, and they wanted them. If I wanted to attack a British army patrol or barracks, the local Provos wanted to shoot a part-time UDR or police reservist. They wanted to murder their neighbours. They wanted to drive the Protestants off the land and reclaim what they believed was their birthright. Gradually the reality was getting through to me. This was no romantic struggle against British imperialism but a squalid sectarian war directed against the Protestant people of Northern Ireland."
