    This atrocity was committed under the Free State, what about atrocities committed by IRA under British government? Is the British government responsible & should they pay compensation?

    If this was true you can sure that you would have heard about it before. There would have been books, RTE documentaries, days of atonement and probably a film starring Juila Roberts.

    There are any number of similar 'atrocity' stories about the poor oul Prods who were of course harmless wee crayturs to be sure. Dacent folk.
