Provos 'Protecting Informer'

[Risteard]

Whilst John O’Dowd was quick to claim that ‘agents provocateur’ are behind Republican activity in North Armagh without offering any evidence, it has emerged that the Provisional Movement have been protecting an informer – whom they had discovered a considerable time ago – from exposure.

The man is a former Provisional prisoner from the Fermanagh area. He was recruited as an informer before his incarceration, and continued to operate in the same capacity within Long Kesh and after his release until his eventual exposure. Following his release he worked in the Provisionals’ Lisnaskea office.

A spokesperson for Republican Sinn Féin asked: “Why are the Provos protecting an informer whilst simultaneously engaging in black propaganda against those who continue to uphold traditional Republican values? They claim to oppose British parades whilst actively supporting British forces, and now it has emerged that they are cynically protecting agents who were active within their own ranks. It must be asked how many others they are likewise protecting?

“As an organisation, the Provos are unparalleled in their ability to embrace and implement British policy in Ireland.”

Those bloody Brits.

Given that Gerry Adams has his Ard Fheis speeches written for him by the British government, I wonder does the term "informer" have any meaning in his group at all. If so, then given that Adams has called on all Irish citizens to become British Crown informers and collaborators, then I take it that the discovery of an informer in their ranks is a cause for celebration.

What annoys some people most is that Gerry Adams is able to increase his own ratings at each election also that of his party, and thats what count, the people are with him.

Roll the clock back 20 years and substitute John Hume for Gerry Adams. The shinners today are as far from achieving unity as Hume was then or RSF would be 20 years from now.
We need a new beginning in Irish Republicanism. That which stems from 20thC physical force is corrupted and outmanouvered beyond repair.

I would have thought that Éirigi would have been the organisation for you then, as they dont seem to support armed action, nor do they recognise partitionist assemblies.

The statement asks how many others they are likewise protecting.

It wasn't meant as a commentary on the statement but more on the issue generally. There's nothing left to throw at PSF that would produce any gain.
