LOUGHLINISLAND MASSACRE | U.V.F , Collusion & Press Freedom |Trevor Birney
On June 18th 1994 while watching Ireland play in the World Cup, 6 completely innocent men were slaughtered by a loyalist paramilitary gunman who sprayed the bar with an assault rifle in an act of cold blooded sectarianism.
Trevor Birney's book, "Shooting Crows" tells the storey of this tragic event, the hatred and bitterness that provide the basis for it, the history of loyalist collusion with various security forces branches, the arms shipment that the weapons came in on and the members of the 3 man team who committed the heinous m*rders.
The book also has a personal element for Trevor as he experienced firsthand some of the breaches of his press freedoms by the PSNI following the airing...

In all honesty this is old news. They use them to spy on us as faceless mercenaries. Always have always will. Now its just easier with the boats between UK and IE

War is war......no sympathy for IRA/INLA thugs

When I was a kid I saw a "Whites only, no coloreds' no irish" sign in a old building here in the states in the st louis Mo. So it wasnt even just england. My Jewish Irish mom told me they would call her and her family lepre-coons when she was a kid, a combo of leprechaun and coons (a derogatory for black people).
Millions of Irish forced to live in U.K. ? Wait a minute they were not forced were they. Now Ireland has the joys of immigration, Brits out , Africans in. I would not wish this cultural enrichment on my worst enemy. The question is you got the Brits out, can you get the African out ? Good Luck.
Giving a "facelift" too these FRU members: COLLUSION. They armed/funded/trained/protected loyalist murderers >>>FOR DECADES!!!!! And we find out more and more and more, they ran REPUBLICIAN agents also, for just as long. [managing both sides, to maintain the terrorism > who is more evil "loyalist, pure sectarian murders? Republicians, toy soldiers at least pretending and mostly targeting ARMY (unless an innocent in their community saw something or knew something > and ofc, then they had to dissappear or be made an example of) OR Force Reaction Unit: the source and continued font of sectarian murders by loyalist gangsters as proxies of the british government. >>>>>>>>>>>HOW COME YOU NEVER ASKED THESE VERMIN, WHO GAVE THEM ORDERS??? WHO DIRECTED FRU!!!!
💯 couldnt of been done without outside help ..he had to go ..for peace,s sake ..and km sure that happened other way round too
Lmao Martin was a tout gerry a tout duffy a tout never mind the gem being scap 🙄
Great interview, I'd like to ask or know if these guys are happy with immigration into Ireland, is it a benefit having a new Irish from Africa, it must be better than having the English

Great listen Very interesting 😁👍🇮🇪🙏🏻
I needed this message after everything I have been going through thank you for sharing your testimony
Mcguinness and adams were agents the british army saved adams life when he was shot
Great interview. What an amazing job Justin is doing for the innocent. Its such a tragedy that we leave so much up to government and the prison industrial complex. Get rid of government. Get rid of regulations. Have private insurance bonds against wrongful convictions funded by audited charities ( not like corrupt and politicised BLM)
Wish I could buy this book in the U.S.
The guards weren't exactly saints themselves. They colluded with the IRA.
The psychology impact on communities will last for Decades, yet society hasn't changed one bit ,the health services, people trying to get by daily to make ends meet, the British is still there and the provisionals were in Government with Thatcherism DUP. Kids have been traumatised and scared by sectarianism tribalism which will probably take decades to heal. Everything has changed and nothing has changed 😮
I seen an interview with his dad who said it was 100% a set-up with all parties ( take that anyway you want) his da said he usually took his visits on another day and he only changed the visit for the next day the night before, on a jail phone before 9pm lockup till the morning,billys da said how did any1 know billy called his da that night and changed his visit till the next day? How would it be possible for INLA to have known about the call?
The rosery bead breagead,, hence,, "he, s a hit man for the legion of mary😂I don't mean man speaking.
No man escaped portloise E Block, or D, or newish one., I'm sure I would certainly be very aware if criminal or Republican, IRA, INLA,, never got out of the loise,,, i I'm 10 mins in, I'll look a fool 😂🎉but I'm certain,, this thumbnail is clickbait, or at least an honest mistake
I've been drawn to the thumbnail, escapes from mnt joy and portloise jail,, I'm 100'/. Certain there was 'of escape from the loise 😂🎉🎉,, no fly zone, maybe Peter pringle or similar gardener in loise in 95,,but the attempted escape happened prior as did the attempted murder of IRA prisoner on E3,, via explosion,, bubbietrapped for this IRA man to move cell door, he did and an explosion Did happen,, in early 90,,s
The attempted escape I meant when someone IRA man put viable gun to cheif,,, There was a man in the loise told me,, OC of The Landen, doing 40 years,TE told me himself he couldn't touch a penny out o, 40,000. Pounds 😮, and he couldn't buy smokes, or similar

Peoples who live in the past always cause palver…
Well they the other side did.nt like his indiscriminate ways.. like people don,t do theese revengeful things for nowt.. must have had enough of innocent Protestants being murdered…

Out of "insecurity" he's a legit kick boxing champion. Everything Andrew Tate said is 100% true, I'm not a fan of him it's just the truth.
When i was at school back in the 90s history class was year 1 romans year 2 saxons year 3 normans year 4 world war 1 year 5 world war 2. We learnt a bit about india not about the conquest just about gandhi. Certainly in england back then we never learnt about ANY colonial wars which seems weird when you consider the empire covered a quarter of the globe
Apparently, a security source claimed that they were 80% certain that the men who murdered British MI5 spy Denis Donaldson were very close to Jim Lynagh, and they carried out the murder of Donaldson as revenge for Lynagh's killing at Loughgall. It was also claimed by some sources that the South Armagh blamed Donaldson for some operations being compromised, and suspected he had planted listening devices.
Rumour at the time was Lynagh and Gerry had a sexual relationship that went bad, Lynagh threatened to go to the media with the story so the big Chucky fella went to his mates in MI5 to have him removed. True story
Great listen, i just met oso last night for the first night at shankill christian fellowship and it's good to hear his life story and finding God.
absolute spoofer
A buddy of mine from N.I. was in the Royal Irish Rangers from 1970 until he retired. He turned me on to this book, which I just purchased.
The British government should have taken the gloves off a long time ago.
He made me laugh...... First time I went to Southern Ireland"legally" haha
WATP NO SURRENDER, if you want to carry on the struggle, that is your opinion and prerogative, but if you and your family members want to do it bring it on, we never give in we never forget and they never stop if that’s okay with you okay?🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧👏
Provos
When I listen to your commentary, you can have your opinion of course that you’re right, but if you want to deem Billy Wright as sectarian, you truly do not understand Billy Wright, he had too many of his family members who were living in 32 counties of Ireland, in interracial marriages, he had a passion for killing IRA members and their immediate family members? WATP NO SURRENDER 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧
Crossmaglen.... The Ghost Town...we called it ... especially wen we walked past the cemetery and the words ... royal marines graveyard painted on it ... very eeerie
Served in south Armagh in 88..89 ... Crossmaglen, barruki Sanger, Newry, fork Hill, Bessbrook, golf observation posts etc .as well as urban and rural patrols .. still think of the places now .... very scary place ...18 Yr old ... memories .......
Also I will never forget the border shooting in jonesborough ..2 high ranking RUC officers ... ill never forget that day ..... haunts me
One of many places around the world from Ralpindi to Northern Kenya, wild, rough places but resistance to foreign rule but also anti any outside interference…..
Dá SAS never fought loyalists, that's a brit fighting a brit.... No....
"the religion of peace" they say...
Watch the secret war, one volunteer, always found it strange, how Adams, macguiness,could walk the streets for 4 decades untouched,
I completed 6 tours one 2 year tour loved the cudds patrols fermanagh Tyrone armagh..... And loved marching season great punch ups 😂😂

Very interesting to hear reference being made to the firms who put themselves at risk to carry out the repair/rebuilding work at the bases & stations. MA close relative went to work as a builder with a bullet proof best and legally carried firearm and thinking back it's easy to forget the impact not just on the main players themselves, but people on the periphery also. A wrong word to the wrong person would easily have seen something like my relative be targeted. Really loving the content on this channel, something I would love to see here would be details on how the bombers were able to go from rudimentary basic devices, to the sophisticated devices that were being used as time went on. How were these skills developed?
