Two Belfast Provo-isms and some great truths learned from contemporaries and the BBC

 "If you feel instinctively that a judge or jury is against you from the outset of a case,it is because your solicitor or barrister has tipped them off before the case commenced that you were either a dubious sort of person or of bad character...."

To which the reply is,"If you call a spade a spade,you should be made to use one."

....

"If psychiatric measures are invoked against you,it is because your family and a relative want to regulate your behaviour or access to means of communication...."

Not so,in our times with consciousness-altering drugs openly on sale without prescription,you have fallen into a trap and been poisoned by a police agent for MI 5 or the American Government. Those people are two-a-penny since the Fall of the Berlin Wall. The East German police were the only people who knew their old female 'tricks' learned from the Middle Ages.

.....

.....

Some great truths:

Firstly,if Protestants want to be properly treated by Catholics,they should vote for the Official Unionists and not the DUP or armed gangs regardless of where they reside.

....

Secondly,if Catholics want to be properly treated by the British Government,they should vote Sinn Fein in the Westminster and Stormont Assembly elections unless they are indebted to a political representative by virtue of long-standing personal and family links, particularly so if that representative believes in human rights and the prosecution of British soldiers and armed criminals.

Dissident republicans? Vigilantees?

 The CIRA are only an armed gang at this stage of history as are the INLA. Both gangs are active participants in the drugs trade and the suborning of false witnesses to undermine the rule of law and to disrupt the court system..

The Catholic Church will always be a champion of the poor and misbegotten....

....

If you want to get anything done in the North of Ireland,you have to go to the Orange Order because they run the North....

In England and Scotland,if you want to get anything done,you have to go to a tradesman or businessman. They run those countries.

In the South,if you want to get anything done,you have to go to a politician. They run the South...

In the US and Canada,if you want to get anything done, you must approach a member of the intelligentsia,be they journalists or teachers or medical profession...

Import-export.

 In December 2004, credit strapped and bankrupt Germany offered to pay for my 'grand plan' of July-August 1988 (which embraced German  Unity) with 44 tonnes of TNT2.

At that point,out of revulsion,I intended to finish the job off in the City of London.

In June 2005 the Germans learned that I planned to detonate the promised 44 tonnes of TNT 2 outside the BundesNachrictenDienst on the Reeperbahn in Hamburg. I was arrested and deported under the Law for the Protection of the Constitution as a threat to the security of the state and a beggar since there were no witnesses who came forward to give evidence against me and I had not claimed social security.

......

While it is reassuring that a contractual obligation was finally met on 29 December 2015 and the explosives were delivered according to Germany's wishes-there was no meeting of minds on delivery in November -December 2004-the explosives are not likely to be used by any republican mainstream or splinter organisation since they are not in their possession and are stored safely and carefully guarded by those who learned the hard way not to invite sedition or disorder in a neighbouring jurisdiction with money, weapons and beer parties.

While I make no secret of the fact that I gave the only intelligent Irishman's response to the Mitchell Plan, both "No" and "Yes" voters in the plebiscite are equally bound by its effect which was for the end to all armed actions against the British presence in Ireland. It does to remember that the Mitchell Plan was agreed overwhelming by a majority,North and South.

A recasting of " The Fool" by Pauric Pearse (1913) in July-August 1988. A corrective to empty philosophising about Ireland's recent burst of economic growth....

 "Since the wise men have not spoken,

"So speak I who am only a fool..."

On the subject matter,namely the plan to upset the apple cart in Eastern Europe,the 1988 'world plan' of my authorship....

The change had been long in gestation and every country but one had dissented from the 'Moscow line' at some time in living memory..

All things must pass is a good summary of historical materialism.

The sequi to my 'play'

Ireland's capitalist expansion was based on US investment in the European digital economy. Ireland was the operating base. Development hinged on technical transfers from Europe.

 American investors facilitated the Irish investment boom. The boom is grounded in highly-leveraged investments and loose native banking practices. 

....

Why the dearth of real insights before the Crash?

In the eighties,policy formation was starved of insights by a lack of intelligent thinking about banking and finance. 

The curtailment of real debate was engineered by the Irish Central Bank, taking  its cue from Thatcher and the Jews of the City of London and the cretins in the Department of Finance.

Ignoramuses all,we say of Free State economists such as 'Blomberg' Tansey and the lamentable Cliff Taylor and intellectual dwarves tutored by UCD.

  Blame must also be levied at those Irish religious who called for political intervention in school curriculums. Similarly, the university authorities choice of student textbooks. Those student learning materials were based on unscientific means and forms of analysis and misleading, outdated conceptions worthy of Mc Manus's hedge school in Kinawley in the 1830's.

I the indigent fool and itinerant scholar,played only a bit-part in Ireland's transformation. The Communists, Establishment  journalists and bureaucracy's roles,none whatsoever.

Society. Progress

Disregard all claims of real social progress in terms of levelling up since 1989. There has been none. Only middle and large property holders and the grifters who deal in other people's chattels have benefitted from what are no real reductions in income disparities.

Not true,I hear you say!

Go down to the Quays and bridges of Dublin to see the huddled masses left behind by the Free State rush of blood to the head and the outcome of mawkish nationalism  generated by that dangerous,conniving,low-life tramp and tinker,Bertie Ahern. A GOBSHITE,if ever there was one!

Friends and foes of the democratic upheaval

Only the Germans were in favour of my plan for a new,refreshed and DEMOCRATIC European Union but on their own superstate model,not my regional independence and interdependence model.

The Germans won out over me and Europe won out over the Germans with a centralised superstate. That is a colossus with only a limitted measure of democracy and no real enforceable rights,a MONSTER in other words.

Like the American cinematic caricature of trade rivalries,that being Star Wars, we are in the British Isles crushed between an American Empire and what became a polyglot superstate,the Confederation.

China?

Don't make me laugh! China is taking a long hike backwards into a misty island-state in a hostile ocean of foreign and dangerous predators in all their multiplicity.

The US though it welcomed the outcome of Eastern democratisation tried to sabotage it at every step,foremost amongst its actions  being those of the CIA/Communist Party of Ireland,their agents being the Maguires of New York. The Mc Gwires are people whose loyalty lies to an 1890's conception of socialism,neither communitarian nor democratic but syndicalist. Theirs is a dead-in-the-water variant of society based on Italian syndicalism and Irish nationalism.

The games of the CIA in Ireland were only made possible by nationalist mouthpieces in both Sinn Fein and Fianna Fail and the Irish Army.

"Anyone who voted for Sinn Fein or the SDLP candidates after...

 "...May 1981 or gave them money for their activities was living in Dreamland or enchanted by stories of a past long gone and hadn't their heads properly screwed on at all. They're only a nuisance and most of the Provos are no different.."

Today,some naive fools think that Sinn Fein's  and the IRA's ringleaders and their fellow travellers of the past can be rescued from prescient obscurity and peace be enthroned for ever.

Sadly, history moves ever onward and the former leaders of both groups are doomed to obscurity by media fiat and changing social conditions and the economic facts of life.

Why,so?

The only constant is change. Time and life move ever onward and leave burning wrecks behind. In England,the Liberal Democrats were the first to be tried in the heat of internal wrangling and now it is the Conservative rich-boys who have torn their party to shreds. In the 1980's, Labour tore itself to shreds until the NEC expelled the Trotskyites around the Liverpool pamphleteers.
