Back issue: Christmas `Peace'
This is the time of year when the Brits go to war under the banner of ``Peace''. The leading actors in these charades of ``peace'' mongering are normally Brit Ministers, Church leaders, Peace People with heavy purses, and local ``respectable'' politicians greedily grasping for ``official'' recognition.
They all see Xmas and the New Year as a favourable hunting ground upon which to raise the cry of ``Peace''. They seek to exploit genuine desire for meaningful peace and to gain maximum advantage from the tragic bereavements and personal losses of the people.
As well as making general propaganda, specific Xmas tactics are cynically applied. Serious, but unsuccessful, attempts are made to create ill-will between the IRA prisoner, his organisation and his family.
A handful of prisoners are offered Xmas ``leave'' as part of a cat-and-mouse game designed to compromise Republicans into acknowledging the Brit right to run prison camps.
Eliza-brit the Queen of Death mouths hypocritical Xmas Day pleas for peace amongst all `her'' people. An annual ritual invented to cover-up the bloody crimes of the Brit power that she personifies.
Her glib garbage, dictated by the Westminster war-lords, is transmitted not just here, but around the globe to be hungrily consumed by Loyalists throughout her crumbling Empire. Such soothing sweetness is meant to ``pacify the natives'' from Bermuda to Ireland, be they black or white.
