We can only make peace with our enemies, which is why Lord Tebbit will never be a statesman.......

Tebbit is an example of the sort of intransigent English arrogance at the heart of centuries of Irish oppression.
-
And a man who's wife was left in a wheelchair by an IRA bomb.
-
Had we not had centuries of English mistreated, by people of his mindset, in Ireland it would not have happened.
-
That's not a justification for disabling an innocent woman.
-
Nor was the murder of civilians in Croke Park by The Black and Tans.
-
As I said, I'm under no illusions about the behaviour of the govt/unionists. But I don't see any justification.
-
McGuiness moved on. The danger of dwelling on the past is that nothing changes

But it was the British who were like the Germans. The British invaded Ireland.

Lord Tebbit would therefore have preferred another couple of decades of killing? He also forgets murders were done on both sides.
-
to at least empathise with Tebbit's feelings.
-
2/2 ...during the violence, including relatives of British soldiers. I think that describes empathy.
-
And Tebbit is free to tell him where to go, and I don't blame him.
-
I agree he is free to say it, and I don't blame him either. But bitterness increases chances of resumption.
-
Which is why you don't put him in charge of peace talks or negotiations,he's not an objective voice.

Tebbit suffered at the hands of the IRA so he has my sympathy and he is a bitter & twisted old Nazi himself so he has my sympathy.
