Sinn Fein - Continuing the Struggle

Sinn Féin is a political party in Ireland. Originating in the Sinn Féin organisation founded in 1905 by Arthur Griffith, it took its current form in 1970 after a split within the party. Sinn Féin is led by Gerry Adams. It is the major party of Irish republicanism and its political ideology is left wing. The party has historically been associated with the Provisional IRA. The name is Irish for "ourselves" or "we ourselves", although it is frequently mistranslated as "ourselves alone".

Sinn Féin is currently the second-largest party in the Northern Ireland Assembly, where it has four ministerial posts (including deputy First Minister) in the power-sharing Northern Ireland Executive. It is the fifth-largest party in Dáil Éireann, the lower house of the Oireachtas, the parliament of the Republic of Ireland. In the 2009 European Parliamentary elections the party's candidate in Northern Ireland, Bairbre de Brún, topped the poll, the first time for Sinn Féin in any Northern Ireland election.

[pppearse]

Listen up ok. I did not say that I support so called "dissidents" however, Ours is not the politics of condemnation. So if dozens of people want to fight then I will not condemn them. I will however condemn the traitor party Sinn Fein who betrayed hundreds of people not to mention selling their country and the greatest guerilla army ever seen the PIRA
