Intimidation of working class homes by censorship gangs. Visits by members of their thought police gang. Any alternative version of Irish events outside the British controlled media one, is censored in many different ways besides the obvious. I personally have had British spooks call me in the middle of the night, with less than subtle threats to silence me. Having failed to win the media war, mercenary gangs opt to increase the pressure off-camera, in the back streets of working class ireland through intimidation. It makes no difference, truth will out.
The existence of such a culture of British inspired censorship and intimidation has been the backdrop of traditional republicanism since it first emerged. The leadership within Provisional Sinn Féin now supported by a British controlled Irish media do not want their credentials scrutinised. Working class activists, are informed that they cannot speak in public, if deviating from the movement's pro-unionist line. The same principle is applied to republican family meetings. Activists who ask difficult questions of an Adams party speaker are 'gripped' after the event and told such behaviour is non-acceptable behaviour.
Andrew Marr, a very British columnist made the following observation:
"The gunmen in the dripping border villages aren't doing well out of this. ... The poor bloody infantry, and the poor bloody sergeants, with our council flats and farmworkers' cottages? These are the people who now matter most, and are about the only people who haven't been bribed. Everyone else benefits from the peace process."
The nationalists who participated in a Stormont government of the mid-1970s very much to the left of the present one, were labelled by the pen of Danny Morrison, writing with the pseudonym Peter Arnlis, was that they were collaborators, traitors and opportunists.
In 1987, 14-year-old Aine Adams told her Irish Uncle Gerry, that his brother, her father Liam had abused her since she was four years old. He said he believed her. "She was always a very good wee girl; I just couldn't imagine a child like her making up such a serious allegation," he said
The British controlled media in Ireland, have been praising Adams's response, of talking about his own father's abuse when they were children. The important questions from a few genuine journalists, as to what exactly he has done for his niece or to protect other potential victims, in his capacity as President of Sinn Fein and Westminster MP, so far have produced nothing noteworthy.
From evidence in the public domain so far, for 20 odd years, he did almost nothing, until Aine forced the issue by going public. She informed Adams she had proven that there was a prima facie case to answer by agreeing to a police medical examination. Instead of support, Aine was pressed to stop using the British police. In 1995, Adams insisted that all abused Catholic boys and girls should refuse to talk to the RUC because the authorities used "these issues for their own militaristic ends".
It was fair to assume on this basis, that the republican movement under Adams would do what it traditionally always did, provide armed volunteers to watch suspected paedophiles, to protect boys and girls of West Belfast, Dundalk and all republican areas. He never delivered on his promise to Aine, though. Liam Adams left Belfast and went to work as a youth worker, in republican Dundalk and then back to republican Belfast's Clonard Monastery to work with youth again.
Adams said he informed the monastery about his brother. The Clonard Youth Centre informed the Irish Times it couldn't find any record of his warning. Managers at the youth centre in Dundalk said, that neither Gerry Adams nor the local Sinn Fein branch, of which Liam was chairperson, bothered to tell any of them that he should not be working with children. When Liam Adams remarried a photographer captured a beaming Gerry at the wedding.
Aine now believed that Adams wanted to shut her up and turn his "brother into the victim". As the scandal threatened Adams's political career, most of the British controlled media in Ireland tried to potray him as a victim as well. As a result the Irish Catholic middle class praised Adams. "Shut your gob," cried one. "Gerry Adams is a good man. This is a family matter and should be dealt with inside the family."
This all comes in the wake of the resignation of 5 Bishops for exactly the same behaviour as Gerry Adams. A 60 million inquiry into child abuse that produced a huge documented account, of more than 60 years of systemic state and church savagery, of rape and abuse. A multi billion award to victims paid by Irish taxpayers not the hugely wealthy Church.
Keeping child abuse under cover has seriously damaged Irish Catholicism but like Adams it still uses language of victimhood and persecution to deflect critical questions for child protection in ireland. Despite all the documente pain, time, effort and money the country is till in almost total denial of the scale of child rape in Ireland. The 35,000 victims so far identified is only the tip of the iceberg and the hardening attitudes are similar to the attitudes of the Catholic middle class in Hitler's Holocaust Europe, approval with silence and denial.
A few ethical journalists are criticising Adams for failing to protect children and accuse him of enabling and being an accomplice to further possible abuse with a cover up. Adams and McGuinness's party has a propaganda machine at work not just covering up child rape but also covering up the fact that the British police and army riddled their party with informers and double agents during the long war. While 5 bishops may resign, Adams remains totally oblivious to the seriousness of the matter.
Adams and McGuinness believe themselves with the support of the British controlled media in Ireland, immune from any negative comment because they accepted a power-sharing agreement that had been on the table since the Sunningdale talks of 1973. Thousands of dead in the intervening years disregarded, they remain the media's darlings.
The brutalisation of generations of working-class children and youth has produced the spectacle of Adams and McGuinness, the worst elements of Irish nationalism, embracing Unionist party policy, and dividing personal power between them. Sunningdale promised republicans a political platform to achieve justice. Adams and McGuinness hijacked that platform for their own personal advancement, to raise their own profile and then smother criticisms, such as child rape by members of their party and gain personal power and wealth on the backs of the ultimate sacrifices of the many, in another 30 years of a liberation struggle that followed the agreement.
British police now warn that support for republican groups is growing. A new generation says, that Adams and McGuinness betrayed the cause of irish freedom and that they will achieve liberation. The refusal of corrupted politicians and media in Ireland in general, to tell the real story of Adams and McGuinness, permits in the meantime, the injustices and barbarity of endemic child abuse to continue. It will delay the day of liberation and protection of Ireland's most vulnerable, from the savagery of occupation and perversions of sociopathic collaborators.
Why aren't they arrested for withholding evidence? How can someone who, with full knowledge of a belief in the paedophiliac activities of their brother, be allowed to walk free? Why aren't Provisional Sinn Fein and their President to be charged with facilitating paedophilia?
It's difficult to discuss the abuse of Irish children without referring to exactly what the sick perverted b*stards did to them. They frequently buggered children (inserting their penises into the anuses of young boys, mostly). They fondled, fingered and f*cked young boys and girls.
When they were caught they were called before scumbags and moved (with the complete knowledge of ********************) to other areas where they were free to continue their vile behaviour of child abuse, buggery, beatings, fingerings (both anal and vaginal), and they are still free with their enablers help to rape children.
Their enablers allowed them to move with full knowledge of their appalling behaviour, from area to area enabling them to continue with their sick paedophiliac activities. And the likes of McGuinness dares defend those enablers? McGuinness expects us to believe that he knew nothing of it, when every dog on a Muirhevnamor street knew it. They all should be locked up for life. If their friends in the British Police won't do it, then the Gardai should arrest them. Adams "the pervert-enabler' said he believed his brother was guilty and allowed him to roam the youth clubs in republican areas., facilitated perversions that he believed happened and they still haven't called for him to resign and now McGuinness excuses it ? Freaks like these have the country the way it is. Shame on all of them.
There is also organised sex rings, everyone is forgetting about those too. We know that organised child abuse is a frequent feature of paedophilia with a level of dictatorial control and secrecy and collusion enacted by the various parties to this in Ireland over the decades, it is simply not credible that this did not become organised how else did they get references to work in youth clubs. Where child abuse exists there is immediate danger to the life of children and the connection between child rape and child murder is always taken as a given possibility wherever child rape occurs in society when the issue of shame and secrecy occur. The determined refusal of the apologists for Gerry Adams to make the connection in the contemporary narrative of these events is preposterous.
There is a very high likelihood of organised paedophilia rings involving members of civil society as well as the clergy in Ireland in all of this. What we are watching in most of the media and politics at the moment is a whitewash, a whitewash every bit the same as the closing of ranks and collusion around the horrific events themselves. This is the irish middle class in action, they too are scum of the highest order.
Ask yourself this ? If you knew of a man who was abusing children and then moved him to another district (where he was looking after children) what would you expect us to believe when he re-offended? You would be directly responsible and up before the courts. Apparently not if you're a man who was a former republican, now asking people to accept the same British Police, who wouldn't prosecute you or your brother, into republican areas. Those lot who cannot see it, sicken me, the truth is beyond them. I am no legal expert, but surely there is law against knowingly covering up a crime you believe happened(several heinous crimes). It is time that people stood up and insisted that Adams is subject to the same laws as the rest of us.
Bottom line even after decades none of these perverted b*stards have been brought to justice by either Adams or McGuinness. They are simply complicit in the denial that has led to where Ireland is now. They can defend paedophile-enablers all they like but until such time that complete gobshytes like McGuinness admit there is a massive child rape problem, children will continue to be raped, abused and murdered. Proud of themselves ? Frankly I personally think they don't care about anything that gets in the way of their blind lust for personal power.
A short time ago, the British police in occupied Ireland turned on Sunday Tribune editor Suzanne Breen. Breen was threatened with arrest and imprisonment unless she delivered her notes of all her contacts with republicans.The badgering of Breen, while her phone was already tapped by the British was a sign of panic.
