People do what they want. If you do one thing and you keep doing it, you don't change. If you do something and then you do other thing then you change, and if you change you can't say that you are doing the same.
When something happens in the present that are so similar to other situations of course the memory starts to work. As it has to be.
RoB said many thinks about the Provos direction, and Billy McKee said one very interesting as he said that if they did want to go that path fine, they were no the first to do so(and as history and life teach us they were not the last) but they didn't have the right other things they did, as the surrender of weaponry to the Erin's enemies.
Here and now the situations is different and the same. It seems impossible and in theory it is impossible. But, surprise, is like that, but let explain why:
Is different because is not the same situation, context, scale and so as when the Provos treason (first of all to the Cause and the martyrs till that moment and then to the future generations because they did take from them tools that the were for the freedom of Ireland as RoB said). Now they are not saying nothing of the weapons, but if they go that way, as for sure their new friends (the only ones to be missing in the photo is the catholic church hierarchy, too much maybe?) -or whatever they are to them- will ask to, then what? Even a single particle of gunpowder given to Ireland's enemies will be what? Another example of if-you-do-one-thing-is-bad-but-if-I-do-the-same-thing-maybe-it won't-be-good-but-for-sure-not-so-bad mentality and actions?
An other thing is the fallacy that Britain and ALL their lackeys are the enemies of the Irish Republicans, of the Republican Cause. No. The first thing they are is enemies of Ireland and the Irish Nation.Then as the enemies of Ireland and the Irish Nation subsequently and instantly they are the enemies of the Republicans.
Is the same because its a giving a propaganda tool (not new, not better, not good by the way) to the enemies of Ireland and the Republican Cause. Or if you want to put it in other way, is giving a propaganda tool to the very system they say they are against.
You don't give presents and be so nice to your enemies. Or maybe the modern thing is like that. Then obviously the modern thing is fundamentally wrong and is bad.
Of course we don't have to defend here the inalienable rights of the Irish Nation and the Irish People. They are clear. The Republican have every right to defend and use them. Even from a political, tactical and strategical point of view is wise to do so and the thing to do.
The difference in doing what some people had done in the past and in the recent days, is that you will be in the headlines and you will be praise and acclaim by the enemies of the freedom of Ireland. In the other hand the ones holding up the inalienable rights of the Irish Nation and People, the defenders of Ireland, that while doing so they will became the targets of the enemies of Ireland and they will attack them.
But, to finish with this opinion, who wants to be the a friend of Ireland's enemies?
