Good Column on the IRA & Tony BlairFound at Around the World via Richard Delevan: The IRA sent operatives to Colombia to train narco-terrorists in return for drugs money and faced no sanction from the British Government. The IRA organised an illegal gun running operation from Florida but paid no political price for its involvement. Indeed, the FBI was explicitly told during its inquiry not to state that the operation had in anyway been sanctioned by the IRA leadership. Throughout the past 11 years the IRA has been running extortion rackets and smuggling rings, it has robbed cigarette warehouses and laundered cash through a chain of front businesses, it has driven innocents into exile and killed dozens of individuals who have crossed its path. And the price exacted by the Blair Government for this massive, lethal, organised criminality? Nada. Nothing. Zilch. Zero.
