Re: Unionist Charter | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:31:29 -0000

Pat I am not a violent Republican ,I believe we must find concensus with our neighbours how ever this will not be reached while the British Government hand a veto to unionists and the unonists know that they dont have to negotiate properly while the British still occupy this part of the Island .
The people in the south may not want us but you can pick your friend but you cant pick your reliatives ,we belong to the Island of Ireland I am as much Irish as any Dubliner or Donegal man .
As for our troubles the people of the north fought for your independance and some died for the same .
we were sold out then by Free Staters just as we are being sold out now by Sinn Fein. so after our sacrifice for your liberty the least you can do is at least look on me as a fellow Irishman .
and yes the world is moving on so why dont you do your best to make sure your fellow Irishman is not left in a manufactured sectarian state.

I heard on the news that Mark Durkan is to stand down as leader of the SDLP , why dont your parties merge then Adams could have an even bigger ego , after all Sinn Fein have become the SDLP and the SDLP have now started to call themselves Republicans.

Ryan , A bit long winded for most but in sumation I think I am correct to say Sinn Fein have lost themselves in power and are now become what we fought against before and after partition.
The only diference in them and the free state forces just after partition is that the free staters never did accept partition , not only have Sinn Fein accepted it they are activly promoting it by selling
Northern Ireland PLC .
When you say Sinn Fein have contradictory positions , that is putting it mildly ,they tell their supporters so many lies they actualy start believing the lies themselves.

Re: RNU must explain latest threat to the community – Gerry Kelly | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 03:27:58 -0000

Gerry as far as I can see the person from RNU was making a promise and not a threat , but I suppose that would not have been dramatic enough for you or your party.
I do agree that multiagency meetings are a great idea for our communities but I dont agree the an unreconstructed sectarian police force should be present at these meetings, they are still recruiting our youth as informers ,they are still firing leathal plastic bullets at our children and they are still colliding with loyalists.
As for residents groups , if Sinn Fein continue to install your own people to drive these groups only in your direction then they arent representative of all the people they purport to represent

Micheal , You dont get the point ,Sinn Fein people love trotting out that line " I only get an industrial wage " , well I earn considerably more than an "industrial wage " and unlike a lot of provos I cant afford a holiday house in the Algarve or Donegal.
Dont be fooled by this nonsence

Re: Attacks on community should not be tolerated - McCartney | Sinn Féin

Brian , the republic proclaimed in 1916 has never been realised since 6 of 32 are still under British rule so how can you protect something you never had .
As for popular support my da and Adams da were not popular in the 40s ,50s, or 60s when they tried to reinvigorate the struggle they were actually looked on with distain from most and even excomunicated by the church, but that did not stop them because the republican struugle will continue until that certain day when the brits declare their intention to withdraw and let us negotiate an Ireland for all its people.
What has happened now is that Sinn Fein have been out negotiated by unionists and are now part of the problem having lost their way ,now administering British rule rather than opposing it.
The republican movement is greater than a few families it is an ideal that wont fade until the brits leave , and that is where Sinn Fein get it wrong also, they believe the have ownership of the title "IRA"
that title belongs to those who are willing.

seany1 — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 09:53:51 -0000

Antaine , I agree totally ,at the present armed struggle is not a valid way forward [but that is not condemning anyone who chooses to use it as such],British withdrawal can only be achieved when we Irish republicans and nationalist unite with one voice and expose the British lie that they have no strategic military or selfish interest in our country .we must demand a time frame for their removal ,only then will unnionists enter into proper negotiations as to the way forward.
At present we have British direct rule with what is just a talking shop at Stormont with no real power ,and a sectarian assembly that by its very nature cant really advance our situation ,all that can happen is we are in stalemate with unionists having the prime position where they dont have to move in any direction that removes their veto .
Sinn Fein have given up on most of their principles on a nod and a wink that if they do they might actually get something in return ,but what have we actually got ,they deilered articles 2&3 in return for the good friday agreement which we all got to vote for and which was renegotiated at St Andrews which we never got to vote for.
They have accepted and actively support the RUC/PSNI and therefore the british presence ,they have called Irish Republicans TRAITORS for resisting the British occupation of this part of our country.
they have given their full support to a sectarian militia who have in recent weeks and months used teargas ,water cannon and leathal plastic bullets on our young people, whos crime was to stand against the forceful routing of an Orange march through their area .
Sinn Fein must accept that their "latest phase " of the struggle has failed to advance our cause one iota and remove themselves from administering british rule in the occupied six counties and meet us all once more as Republicans with strength in our unity and a clear voice that Britain must leave us to agree an Ireland where all its citizens are equal and have a voice .an Ireland where all of its citizens have ownership .
As for those people in the 26 counties who you say dont want us ,after we sort out the problem of removing the Brits we must then set about rebuilding this part of Ireland to once again make it a feasible part of the Irish nation.

We will not officially see our national flag fly in the north until the brits leave , and for those people who still believe the lies coming fron Sinn Fein ,wake up and rise up the provos are being used as puppets by the british puppet masters only doing what they are alowed to do.
the GFA which we all had a vote for, was renegotiated by the DUP at St Andrews ,we never got to vote for any ammendments.
therefore the GFA is now null and void and should no longer be refered to.
As for the stormont government ! what government can be brought to a halt and closed down unilaterally by a foriegn government?
the answer is that stormont is only a puppet show .
IF SINN FEIN CONTINUE ON THEIR PRESENT PATH ADMINISTERING BRITSH RULE THEY CAN NO LONGER CLAIM TO BE PART OF THE REPUBLICAN FAMILY

IF THE RUC HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN THEMSELVES HOW CAN YOU AND YOUR PARTY STILL GIVE THEM YOUR TOTAL SUPPORT. THEY WILL NOT CHANGE AND YOU CANT MAKE THEM. THEY ARE AND WILL BE A SECTARIAN FORCE UNTIL THE BRITS LEAVE.
JUST HAVE A LOOK AT THE WAY THEY ARE TREATING REPUBLICANS IN DERRY AND ARMAGH AND BE HONEST WITH YOURSELVES THEY ARE A BRITISH MILITIA DELIVERING BRITISH RULE AND YOUR PARTY IS HELPING THEM

Re: Loyalist Mob enter Banbridge residential area to remove Tri-colours | Sinn Féin

In the 60s Paisley came on to the Falls road to take down a tricolour backed by the RUC , today the UDA come into our streets to take down tricolours Backed by the RUC the only difference between then and now ,Sinn Fein support them.
Sinn fein told us we would have parity of esteem now this councillor is telling us we shouldnt fly our flag for the sake of peace.your party sold out everything in the GFA now you even want to sell our flag too. whats next will you be asking me to give back my Irish passport?
You should be ashamed to use the name of SINN FEIN .

Until the british government announce a date for their departure Gerry can talk all he wants ,because until unnionism are forced to negotiate a settlement and join the rest of the island to live as EQUAL co-inhabitants , then unnionism does not have to leave their trenches.
Lets get real Gerry the brits are pulling your strings and leading you all on a merry dance.

Re: McCartney calls on 32CSM to reconsider protest plans | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 16:25:32 -0000

Much as I respect Raymond McCartney and the personal sacrifices he has made ,I dont think he or his party have the right to ask any Republican not to protest against Internment [especialy this weekly protest] while his party actively support the government that is implimenting the same .It is about time you and your party start listening to grass roots instead of cuddling up to your new best buddies.
Have you learned nothing from the election results in the south as one of your own reps put it you are not relevant and thats the way you are going to be here..
Now lets see you join the protests instead of distancing yourselves from our community.

Re: Disappointment at Parades Commission decision on ABOD parade – Cllr McClenaghan | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 02:51:21 -0000

Micheal ,applying your logic should we have sat in our homes when Bombay st was burning ,should we have sat in our homes when catholics were being gerimandered and denied housing ,should we have stayed in our homes while 10 brave Irish men died on hunger strike.
Maybe during these occasions you did sit at home and watch while thousands of brave people went to the front line and stood up for your rights.
As for power sharing ,what power have they got and what is actualy being shared all I see being shared is so-called industrial wages and massive expenses.
This is not a power sharing government it is an executive, still controlled by Westminister,
remember on every occasion the executive was closed down it was the brits alone who implimented closure much to the dismay and protestations of the free state , Sinn Fein and SDLP
Finally "let our elected reps deal with it" ?? if they are blaming the people of Ardoyne for violence that has been instagated by the RUC and the Orange ,well who are they "dealing with it "on behalf of?.....
Ibelieve if you lie with dogs you get up with fleas

Re: Disappointment at Parades Commission decision on ABOD parade – Cllr McClenaghan | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 16:14:15 -0000

Micheal ,what you dont seem to realise is that the people of Ardoyne were gathering for a peaceful protest when the RUC dragged and beat them of the road ,the riot as you seen it was started by the RUC .
Sinn Fein are'nt in an awkward position at all, all they have to do is to stay out of the way after all if they will not tell the truth then they are part of the problem.
As for democracy ,within Sinn Fein if you dont tow the party line then you are kicked out ,IS THAT DEMOCRACY?

Re: Adams Open Letter to Orange Order | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 02:55:30 -0000

While in other aspects of life I may not agree with "Craftywatcher" ,I do agree with him in this case Adams , to put it lightly ,is condecending looking down on people from his ivory tower ,but thats the way he has been for a number of years now ,Adams and the SF leadership now stand together in their own wee bubble shrugging of any suggestion that they have lost touch with grass roots ,Well just have a look at their once loyal workers in the South now leaving in their droves ,with the same happening here in the north maybe some day soon they will smell the coffee,
but I do believe its now too late ,following the statements from McGuiness and O Dowd that Irish Republicans are now TRAITORS, you and your party are in the mire ,it has gotten to the point were the brits arent even trying to infiltrate your party anymore because you are so far up their ass that you are now part of the British presence .
Your day has come and has now passed!

Well Margaret the orange now feel more welcome than ever to coattrail through Ardoyne after your party stood firmly against the people of Ardoyne on the 13 July and condemned every republican and demonised every Republican grouping ,instead of laying the blame firmly where it belongs ,with the RUC and The Orange.
Its about time your party got off its knees and stood with the rest of us once again, look at what you are doing to the struggle for self determination and freedom you are even fracturing your relationship with the SDLP [Ourselves alone]

Re: Sinn Féin react to revelation that PSNI spent £300,000 on informants | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 12:10:55 -0000

why should ordinary informants not be paid ,as your party members will testify it is an honourable profession being an informer and they are entitled to payment just the same as yourselves.

Re: ‘They need to justify their actions to the people of Ardoyne’ Kelly | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 03:45:33 -0000

Micheal
If you feel the need to state your credentials ,I too am a life long Republican from Fainna to Army to political activist , I have been a direct victim of RUC collusion and have also been a POW.
I am not a reactionary , I do believe the rioting really only creates hardship for our people but I wont condemn our people for it ,for they are not to blame .
Violence will always flare up were people feel marginalised or when they feel inequality ,and you cant tell me that the people of Ardoyne dont feel both .
As for Sinn Fein , as you state they are elected but to what , as I and a lot of people view it ,its a British assembly that is and will be only allowed to do what the Brits want them to.
Sinn Fein keep telling people that those involved in "The dissedents" are anti GFA what they fail to mention is, there is no GFA ,it was renegotiated at St Andrews ,So where does that leave "Democracy".
You state you dont believe in starting something unless you can finish it .
I was at meetings preceasefire in which the provo leadership told us there was nothing on the table and they didnt know where it would all lead but they thought it was worth trying ,well if that was true they didnt even know what they were starting so how could they know they could finish it
I am not a member of any political or military group and for the last number of years all I have asked is that the Provo leadership listen to grass roots [which they have not done ] and let the party be led from bottom up and not as a dictatorship as it is now with any decenting voice being marginalised.
I do believe that we can progress but that everyone must be on board and everyone must be listened to.
I would also like to say I totally condemn any physical attacks on members of Sinn Fein .

seany1 — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 03:00:40 -0000

Micheal ,I disagree these attacks are not attacks on the peace process because there is no peace process, all we have is a stalling process were the brits and unionists are stalling our drive for a united 32 county republic and Sinn fein by administering British rule in our country are part of that stalling process.
The RUC in their actions attacking our community are the organisation to blame for the Ardoyne riots they are the people who hemmed the Ardoyne people in all day, they are the people who readied water canon and plastic bullets they are the people forced an Orange march through the area and Sinn Fein by attacking local people for their actions are hipocrites and Traitors.

Re: Serious concerns expressed after PSNI shooting | Sinn Féin

seany1 — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 02:43:29 -0000

I too would like to see the RUC tackling criminality from whatever source , but it seems if its loyalist crims they get the softly ,softly approach, whereas catholics as always feel the full force of their military might.
Shooting someone in the upperbody while he is in a back garden with clearly nowhere to go with a helicopter flying overhead onboard are heatseeking imagry ,if you ever watch the show cops on camera they never have to shoot anyone.

Ooops it seems shoot to kill is still here RUC ,PSNI still a british police force ,still working to the british agenda still using leathal force against the Nationalist connunity, what a pity they could not find their guns to save Kevin McDade ,even some of the plastic bullets they used in Ardoyne may have saved his life ,But why would they shoot at their own we are their enemy!

Brian you just dont get it , there is no power sharing government all we have is a sharade created by the brits . The only people with the power is the brits and to prove this watch SF and DUP run to them every time they want something , all they are doing is stringing us along and forcing republicanism up a cul de sac, as for the good friday agreement ,it was renegotiated at St Andrews and no-one got a vote .
I think its time that republicans withdrew suport from Sinn Fein until they get back on line with our principals ,the brits should declare their intent to withdraw and then we can truly negotiate a peacful settlement.

Well you have just made another successful trip to the states ,how many bulging envelopes were secreted to help with your party funds and pay you all your industrial wage, an industrial wage that is so indutrious that it enables the selected chosen faithful to buy second and third homes and build holiday homes for those hard working people in SF.
