Letter: Citing war crimes when describing actions of US, Iran stance is blatant hypocrisy from Sinn Fein
A letter from Tom Nash:
Over the past days both Sinn Fein MLAs Michelle O'Neill (first minister for all) and Declan Kearney have lambasted the US for attacking Iran.
Both have cited the disregard to “the right to life”, crimes against humanity and war crimes when describing US activity. This is another example of PSF/PIRA hypocrisy.
February 17 was the 38th anniversary of the La Mon massacre when PIRA terrorists used napalm to incinerate 12 innocents and maim many others for life.
To date, the La Mon victims have been denied justice. This is but one example of a catalogue of ‘war crimes’ committed by PIRA gangsters.
During their terror campaign, PIRA were happy to use the USA for fundraising and the supply of weapons.
For example, the Barrett Light 0.50 Sniper Rifle, used by PIRA terrorists in south Armagh to kill members of the security forces, was supplied by US collaborators.
In March 1995 Gerry Adams organised a $200 PSF fundraising dinner in New York.
Among those attending was Donald Trump. During the dinner, Adams even referred to him as “my Trump card”.
Perhaps the Trump administration will now act to cut off all Sinn Fein funding in the US, as well as having a close look at the venomous treatment of Israel and support of Hamas by the Republic of Ireland (ROI). After all, it is US companies which are keeping the ROI afloat.
