[QUOTE=âartfoley, post: 940713, member: 179â]It fits perfectly. Wheres these supposed transmitters and whats the chain of evidence.
Ill leave you with adams on the murder âI believe that the killing of Jean McConville and the secret burial of her body was wrong and a grievous injustice to her and her family.â
Good man gerry, showing up all the barstoolers on here[/QUOTE]
Yes. Iâm sure they decided to hold on to British Army transmitters for 40+ years and kept a log so as to track their location. :rolleyes:
[QUOTE=âTheUlteriorMotive, post: 940711, member: 2272â]Not that simple. Why did the IRA not claim responsibility for her murder?
If you accept legitimacy of IRA campaign are any actions it takes legitimate?[/QUOTE]
Because she was a widow of 10 children.
Exactly my point you tard. She was executed without any semblance of fair procedures and in those circumstances no reasonable person could come to the conclusion that her killing and the manner of it were justified
She married 10 children who all died?
Yes but if she was an informer then surely their argument is she is collateral damage and tough as it was it was necessary to win their war. Not claiming responsibility for it betrays that as an argument. If you accept their actions as legitimate then they need to claim responsibility for it at the time.
Why tell her children she had deserted them/run off with a British army soldier.
You are citing Brendan Hughes as your source, he also said a transmitter was found in her flat on two occasions and she admitted to being an informant. Now either Brendan Hughes is a reliable source or he is not.

The Provos were very aware of propaganda and how it could be used. They didnât claim responsibility for Columba McVeigh either as he was 17. You can see why they didnât all these years later when there is still so much rankle about Jean McConville yet other cases have been forgotten.
She was not in the IRA so what could she have informed on? Movements of known Republicans? Seems low end. Informers were generally in the IRA with detailed and specific knowledge.
Propaganda was not an issue when they tarred and feathered young girls?

And yet nowhere in that article do I see anything about the IRA claiming responsibility for it which negates your point.
The Divis was a hub of Provo activity, there was lots of valuable information she could provide in terms of tracking movements and identifying members, hangouts, meetings, especially in a time when the Brits had a terror unit operating with a shoot-to-kill policy on suspected Provos.
On being at the killing i believe hughes. However the report of nuala oloan entirely contraverts the assertion that she was a tout and on that basis and given he had a motive to still lie about it, ill believe oloans report
So you are taking some report from a civil servant 30 years after the event over the account of someone who you believe to have actually been there, privy to what went on and a witness to the actual events. You couldnât be doing any better job at portraying yourself as a simpleton.
Yes, im taking the word of a person widely respected on both sides of the divide over that of a murderer and a drug addict
Art Foley has convinced me, she deserved it.
Dumb cunt, youve already voted twice saying she deserved. No wonder you find yourself in tottis company on the fucking shortbus
Well if you donât deem them credible enough then donât use them to implicate Adams.
Hardly any surprise that Foley finds himself on the side of British dirty tricks. A regular fucking Lord Haw Haw.
When did i implicate adams?
Didnât say you did, just warning you not to.
