Campbells murder a man in whose home police had found 64 kilograms of explosives 2 grenades and over 5000 rounds of assorted ammunition had named jackson as his accomplice. However police failed to arrest jackson meanwhile he is of liberty to murder part campbell. Jackson of being a member of the Ulster Defense regiment then the largest regiment in the british army. He was later involved in the massacre of the Miami Showband in july 975 when 3 band members were killed by members of the klan and gang as they attempted to plant a bomb on the musicians boss. Boy list paramilitaries horace boyle and Wesley Somerville were killed instantly as the bomb exploded premise surely. Well the Ulster Defense regiment was the largest regiment in the british army it was geographically recruit it here and the north of ireland and it only served here in the north of ireland it was essentially a counterinsurgency unit that was set up the big end of the troubles. That itself took over from the discredit the specials which was a special place philip thought it existed since the. 1920 s. And it was clear from the outset that the u. D. R. Was set up to recruit from within the loyalist unionist community. They were almost entirely drawn from within the community. Declassified documents from british sources from the Prime Ministers Office from the ministry of defense secretary of States Office make it quite shockingly clear that from the perspective of the British Government it was acceptable to recruit so into the regiment who was an octave loyalist paramilitary who was a member of a loyalist paramilitary group. Theres no doubt that the creation of the else the defense regiment was influence for the british show me boy the experience in the empire these kinds of locally right regimens what controls and commanded by british offices and as any intrinsic pauls in the chain of command bridge me were common through all of the counterinsurgency campaigns there was a real and genuine high at the instigation of the regiments that it would be truly crossed me to see would be nonsectarian in character but it became apparent very quickly that that was not going to be the case and the british army was willing to live with the consequences which was that this would be in many ways a sectarian regiment. Many people from little in this community joined the regiment to get weapons training and to state the weapons and according to the official documents that we funded the u. D. R. It was the largest Single Source of modern weapons flowing to the loyalist paramilitary groups it was a recipe for disaster. And one of the things we noticed whenever we started to do the research was the large numbers of gongs that were disappearing from both our you see and u. D. R. Armory and places like plan u. T. R. Various this is like territory along. It was our volunteer force and. To name but a few. Now we have a pictorial of just the devastating effect that one of these. This is 9 millimeter starting submachine gong stolen from. On the 20th 24th a man 1991 and subsequently used to kill a lot of people and seriously injured numerous other people and the attacks were these are the people that i. Was with the charge also shows as is who was used in these columns and here we can see that some of the people who were involved in these in these columns were also members of the r. T. C. On the u. D. R. And we can also see as i said who all was killed on one of those people who was killed and one of the force that acts with us was used was with my own father who was killed and on the farms over a bridge. Behind. We do know as a matter of homes as a matter of. Looking for problems and terrorists that is the domain of the eye you see the r. U. C. The police was created in the early 1920 s. At the same time as the state of north there it was created and it reflected the contested nature of the state it was almost 93 percent drawn from one community and as a both part time element on a full time element there was a militarized force from the outset it was framed on the colonial model of British Police and thats how the very fraught and fractious relationship with the. Nationalist community. As a Nonviolent Civil Rights Movement korean force in the late 1960 s. It was the reaction of the r. U. C. To the. Attacks on the 1st civil rights marches by the police that actually energies the movement. Of people unless. The fuse for the conflict at the time. Then in the 1960 s. And 1969 in particular we had a situation where there was coordinated loyalist attacks protectee on the catholic population of belfast tens of thousands forced to flee their homes the irish army set up refugee camps along the border which put up the refugees flee in the north a mob was striking about these attacks was that the r. U. C. The Police Actually took part in the attacks on the Catholic Community and belfast at the time. So instead of preventing them they were active participants in the burning of whole streets in belfast at the time. On the 5th of june 1906 the gang attack to small rural pope called the rock bar near keady kind. Of approaching the pope they shot a local man called mick mcgrath as he left the building. They then detonated a nail bomb which failed to explode. What was striking about this particular attack was that all those involved were members of the local police force the r. U. C. With some on duty as the attack took place. And summing up and sentencing these Police Officers the lord chief justice went so far as to claim and i quote that they were trying to rid the land of pestilence but thats the kind of language that nazi shoes but use. A very important landmark for the campaign and and 999 was the fact that we acquired they offered a bit of john wayne was. A former sergeant and they are you see he had been convicted of the merger a man called william strathairn and he had served 7 years in prison. Prepared enough. It became available to us in the spring of 9099. 00. For the 1st time they realized that the job of monaghan bombings was linked to so many other attacks north of the border. To the miami show. And the cast of. The merger of john francis all of which took place in the republic. In february on judge baron who was conducting the inquiries into the. Mesh with john we are in paris. John we are in paris at the same time. And i know. We arranged for the pathan open center to mate with them at that time and. I think that the significance of the meeting with were we were able to. Be able to test the evidence there. We spent several days with them put different parts of the jigsaw together. Thanks to him and thanks to all their evidence it was because. Of course he was central to the killing. Member of our special patrol Group Special patrol probe was a section of the or you see it there would have been. The antiterrorist squad the death but the riots of the store bones. We did not deal with all of them really Police Shootings 2 distracted men. Who liked that type of auction so it would have attracted officers who would tended to to be more militant than the ordinary policeman. Was approached by Gary Armstrong in that so they explained to me god we should take the war to the are your instead of setting box it was i think a lot of peoples belief that the all youre in a was being a lot to operate without much opposition much endurance they explained to me they had already started this by. Gone bomb attack on the route bar outside. The os me if i would be interested in joining what they were doing. I told them i would need to know more about it yes of course i would be interested but they did explain to me that the was quite a number of people involved. After without her meeting was arranged. To her was there. Lawrence explained to me it was on the right he should tell me about a lot of jobs had been gone up until that. Surcharge dublin monaghan bombings. Release. Bridge. Bar bombing and shooting. The Russian State Television Propaganda Machine propaganda outlet propaganda tools we are in an information war. That can change the world tomorrow.

Why have you not shut down our t. V. On you tube its a Propaganda Machine mr walker. Chose seemed wrong when all quotes just dont hold. Any gold that hes yet to say proud these days he comes to advocate and engagement equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. The chrono virus that hour has proven this point because even though all the while on the why lives are cho and deliveries of critical parts are not happening stop the funding that cheap money is is created out of nothing to create the simulation going. On. Some of the are you see man we are names were involved over many years and a number of fatal bombings and shootings alongside paramilitaries in the ostrava all interior force they include are you see man William Mcarthur a selfconfessed killer. Also r. U. C. Reserve constable Lawrence Mcclure police to be one of the gangs most experienced bomb makers who was convicted of causing an explosion and possession of firearms at the rock bar for which are ever the only received a suspended sentence or you see constable ian mitchell was also convicted of causing an explosion at the rock bar and possession of firearms but similarly only received a suspended sentence Gerry Armstrong who were also names escaped any conviction in the rock bar attack a lower the Historical Enquiries Team a police unit set up to investigate historical murders says he was clearly a principal of fandor in a later book penned by armstrong after his release from prison he clearly details his role in the rock bar attack in a chapter called on fulfilled potential. Between the middle of night in 72 when the gang really started its work until the end of 975 thats less than 3 years the gang had killed 89 people. In one month alone in april 9075 fast person they killed was dorothy trainer a protestant woman walking home with a catholic husband through portadown. Within 3 days theyd killed Martin Mcveigh who was murdered as he cycled home from work in the same town portadown a couple of weeks later they blew up a Little Cottage that was being renovated killing 2 brothers and a sister and the sisters unborn baby girl. And by the end of the month theyd also killed a man called when boyle who had been sitting at his Kitchen Table looking at photographs of his newborn baby girl so there in just one month in one small geographical area you had 4 separate attacks in which 7 people were killed these attacks were remorseless and they ratcheted up the pressure until the end of 975 when a completely new development took place. As with previous attacks the modus operandi of the gang was to strike 2 targets almost simultaneously. In a white Cross Country the revie family sat down to watch a popular t. V. Show when gunmen entered the family home 24 year old john martin was hit as he sat in his chair while 22 year old brian was shot in the back trying to escape into a nearby bedroom. Anthony the youngest brother dived underneath the bed for cover before the gunmen sprayed the bed with bullets. A little while later on they heard them through the front door. Come on the bed. Brian who is in the bible as. Are you he was dead. Them all up in the. John mark he would lie on in a pearl of blood on a. On a new year with all the dead. At around the same time gunmen burst into the home of the foundling only 17 miles away in bali dog and country done. Again the intention was to wipe out an entire family. As they rushed their way into the house they opened fire in barney wood who was hits a number of times his brother joe who attempted to charge the gunman was killed instantly. But i was shot 1st and may our. Spun me around and. On day by the time i knew. The body was dead. Because a i he was in the ring at every were in. But i crawled out into the hallway. Back to body was left and there to get a well as an intensive care of course and was there for a week. The doctor here marar not mourning it. Has the years should be real hey if things are banned according to logic if you shouldnt be here. Because of a ball of go and step for your heart. For noble perjury and then there were days. There was nether both nor gristle nor muscle to stop what but a target 90 percent sure. Took a kidney with. As the smoke settled 3 members of the old guard family into revie brothers lay dead 17 year old anthony revie died later in hospital. Patient from the mens killings was swift brutal. The following evening a minibus of textile workers was stopped by members of the ira in kings mills not far from the review home where the killings had taken place the night. Before. These pictures tell the story of the horror that followed. Up to 20 gunman surrounded the minibus its catholic driver taken to safety the protestants onboard moaned on mercilessly. Policemen who arrived shortly afterwards told of bodies piled on top of one another. The gore and the personal effects give a hint of a conic. When we met joan weir and powerless one of the burning questions we had is why he and the others in the gang and not retaliated for the. As for was chilling he told us there was a plan and the plan mostly attack a Primary School to kill all the children in the school to kill the teachers we asked him why it didnt go ahead and he tours because the u. V. s leadership in belfast believed that the plan came from Army Headquarters came from military intelligence and a been planted the military intelligence wanted the situation to spiral out of control and this was too much for the e. V. F. And they refused to go ahead even for them it was a step too far. The plot. That was decided on. Was to shoot top. Of school. In police. Just on the outskirts of leaks. So we say sure dont screw curing show the procedure the screw children teachers yes. Yes. Do you believe there is a loser in the. Yes i do indeed yes i do indeed. Move. If thats hard hop and. I think there is nearly died. There would have been a shocking retaliation. From the republican side. Retaliation from the republican side. To it would have eventually. In a fairly short time i should say they told us quite the contrary into. Proper. A civil war situation and i think the contrary was almost already in a civil war situation but if that happened. Even the moderates. On both sides were going to have to take sides on the was going to be. There was going to be a serious serious civil war. We had a meeting with the chief constable the most Senior Police officer and the p s i accompanied by an assistant chief constable at their headquarters and we asked them. What they intended to but the fact that a former Police Sergeant William Mcarthur out of that it publicly that he was also part of the plan to kill 30 children out of scope and their teachers. There was a pause they looked at each other and they told us that nothing had been dont know intention of doing anything. He wasnt to be arrested. To be reinvestigated nothing would happen. And i think at that moment after we left. We talked about it and we realized that where else in europe would a former Police Officer plan to kill a large number of children and a School Former employer would say that he had no plans to reinterview him as a result. Of dunning street in london the british Prime Minister Harold Wilson was faced with what he called himself an apocalyptic crisis. And was spinning out of control. War could not be ruled out. Amongst the options he considered were a dried withdraw and Self Government if the people of the north were on governable he could not govern them. In an atmosphere of near panic wilson called a council of war at his official country retreat checkers. In the peaceful buckinghamshire countryside. Also present was the secretary of state for defense. And the secretary of state for Northern Ireland greece on the Security Side the team was headed by so david house the general officer commanding northern arent. Well wilson attempted to control the worsening situation the hawks within British Military intelligence hoped for a different outcome. Where all out war could be waged on the ira. In the meantime gang were slaughtering anyone but republican targets. So we asked ourselves why why these people and we drew up 2 lists one was of people who were unlucky enough to be caught up in indiscriminate car bombs and the other this was a people who were targeted or watched chased hunted at their work or at their home and we discovered to our surprise that every single one of those bar one. Self starters people were making something of their lives they were ordinary people and then we asked ourselves why why these people. And the theory we came to was that frank kitson in his classic manual of counterinsurgency operations rhodes that if you cant catch the fish either by rod or net then poison the water and author areas that these ordinary people were targeted to persuade other ordinary people to repudiate the ira a to withdraw support from the ira course didnt work had the opposite effect violence begets violence if people cant trust the law they would take the law into their own hands it was completely counterproductive as well as illegal and immoral i think the stage weve reached as a longer stand. But it meant. The legal cooperation. Cooperation between. Members of the Security Forces loyalist paramilitary groups sometimes us help an individual level and sometimes as happened on a more structural level directly in the 1980 s. And ninetys. There was no actual crime of collusion in this jurisdiction but clearly it revolved a number of criminal arcs by Police Officers and or soldiers and its been a phenomenon throughout the troubles and we find collusion in many countries we find government shoes and soup gunning so hes deniable 3rd forces in order to carry a current or insurgency but not to deniable way. I think the rule of loyalist paramilitaries here was very summary they did what the Security Forces felt that they couldnt do because and theory they were point by the rule of law and so they could use deniable 3rd forces to do it for the. Politicians to. Put themselves on the line. To get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Or some want to. Have to be right to be for us as a white woman for freedom or cant be good for. Industry always in the water that our. Nuclear become a battleground in the u. S. People are demanding the shut down of a local plant from my yankee right now my focus because its a very dangerous. Power plant the owner is attempting to run the reactor beyond its operational limit this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass on wheres the power in this country where is it going is it moving more towards corporate interests or is. More in the idea of traditional. People this case demonstrates that struggle in the very real. Struggle. The point is should we actually be charging for it because this is. Because its a benefit to the person. And thats the audiology education about 30 or 40 years ago but the perspective of education was originally that education is a benefit to society in general i wouldnt want to live in a society without. Seeing a benefit in ignoring the public means that were ignoring that the skill bias we need for a Sophisticated Society and putting the burden of that school on the individuals and what weve turned it into is just now the trying institution. That is not the. Claims of russian meddling are back in the headlines Democratic Senators are calling on President Trump to slap still more sanctions on russia alleging moscow is interfering in the upcoming 2020 election. And historic legal hearing that begins in london to determine whether well be extradited to the us where the wiki leaks founder is wanted on. Charges his supporters claim case against him is extremely weak. But we. All say the same thing we believe. 20. 4. Single. Woman across the
