The bombing of New Forge RUC rest centre in the South of Belfast

 In 1984-5 after an attempt to recruit me as an informer by the government harem (MI 5) agent, Jennifer Mc Curry,I decided to retaliate against the police who she enlisted to conduct open surveillance on my student lodgings.

I took an interest in Thatctcer's inflammatory rhetoric to the effect that "there must be no hiding place for terrorists in the Irish Republic or anywhere else".

I decided to reciprocate RUC harassment with an attack on their vehicles outside my lodgings. I communicated this plan to Dave Mc Auley of Lower Falls Sinn Fein.

In the event,no such operation went ahead but Newry was mortared after the end of surveillance by liveried RUC landrovers. Nine police officers were reported dead.

Near where the MI 5 hooker lived was the rest centre for the police force.

I suggested that we bring a mortar up the Lagan Canal towpath on a trolley and fire it into the New Forge building.

I cannot remember if this attack went ahead.

...

In my final briefings I told Jim Wray to either bomb or mortar the New Forge building.

 As I recall the building was attacked and serious damage was caused.

I recall that my bon MOT, possibly carried in An Phoblacht was that " Briefings there should be no resting place for terrorists."
