UDA To Take Action If Nationalists Threaten Its 'British-ness'
"The UDA has issued a belligerent statement to mark Remembrance Day in the North, threatening to take action if nationalists threaten its "British-ness". Yesterday, the Independent Monitoring Commission suggested London set a deadline for decommissioning after "disappointing" progress. In strong contrast to last year's UDA statement, which was regarded as conciliatory, this year's is more militant. It says it remains ready to face the republican threat which, it says, is non-violent but every bit as dangerous and must be combated. It accuses republicans of racism, ignorance and bigotry. The Independent Monitoring Commission's Joe Brosnan, a former secretary of the Department of Justice in Dublin, yesterday suggested a deadline be set for loyalists to move forward and decommission.
When is someone going to call these cunts to account? The IRA have been leaned on from all angles since the Good Friday agreement, thus leading to full decommissioning - as verified by the independent monitoring body, and yet they still draw criticism and pressure from select camps as Unionist politicians continue to place obstacles and demands in the way of full devolution as it was delineated in the original agreement... all the while not one Unionist bullet has been handed over.
Enough of the double standards already.
