On the plus side, I think we can now safely say beyond a shadow of doubt that liberals hate Britain. What other interpretation is there for the reverence with which the BBC reports on this load of old pony?
Anti-British psychopaths led by a member of a foreign cult blew up British citizens, and this proves Britain sucks? Even from first principles, that'd be a stretch, but the logic on show makes 'I wouldn't start from here' sound like genius:
Seriously, let's check the scorecard here: police follow the lead of the elected government in 1972 and go easy on Father O'Semtex = Bad Pigs! Headcases holding public office right now = hooray for the peace process!
Apparently, there's appeasement and there's appeasement!
Meanwhile, liberals supported the IRA all the while it was murdering civilians, but now it's all moot, they claim what they actually meant was 'let justice be done though the heavens fall'.
For further evidence of humbuggery, consider the BBC's description of Sinn Fein as 'the political party closely identified with the IRA'. That's how the BBC describes them right now. In 1972 the police were under political pressure and dealing with a background of sectarian lunacy, what's the BBC's excuse?
Indeed, if there're any parallels between 1972 and modern life, they lie mainly with the BBC's determination to duck the tough questions.
All of which leads to the wider issue: for years the left in general, and the BBC in particular, depicted Ulster Unionists as crazed bigots with some wacky, irrational fear of Irish Catholicism. Now we know the truth: the Catholic Church in Ireland was exactly what the Unionists said it was. True, the bowler hat thing is kind of weird, and the Pope probably isn't the Anti-Christ after all, but objecting to being ruled by people who think True Christianity means murder and ethnic cleansing, well, that used to be what the Left claimed to stand for.
But that was in the old days, before the Left was born again and liberals learned to accept the joy of hating Britain into their lives.

Al Hutchinson's report, published on Tuesday, found that by acquiescing to a deal between the government and the Catholic Church to move Fr Chesney to a parish in the Irish Republic, the Royal Ulster Constabulary was guilty of a "collusive act".Hey, think how the bombers feel: they missed out on the chance to become Ministers of the Crown like Machine Gun McGuinness and pals.
He said this had compromised the investigation and the decision "failed those who were murdered, injured or bereaved" in the bombing.

Ah!, but then Catholics (including the clerics) got lots of victimhood points. Now you get points for being Irish but none for being a Catholic. In fact being a Catholic priest gets you negative points.
'Now we know the truth: the Catholic Church in Ireland was exactly what the Unionists said it was.'
No you don't, and it wasn't. Just because the BBC said the Unionists were lying red-faced bigots doesn't mean they weren't.
And what about the 'Reverend' Ian Paisley? That horse-faced protestant cunt spent decades frolicking with Loyalist murderers.
Ordained???
Paisley invented his own bloody church!!
Paisley openly admits his hatred of Catholics so don't preach about 'bigotry'.
'He never associated with terrorists the way Adams et al'
So what the hell does that mean?
There's as much proof on Paisley as there is on Gerry Adams - but then Paisley is the same breed and creed as the British overlords.
And by the way I'm no fan of Adams the master-terrorist, either.
