Just back from picking up the grandson! Now! What was I on about? I've studied this biz for a few decades and it's obvious the major players have been........ Various government agencies, various army departments, and agents of other lands, as well as various dumb scratter groups such as the Nationalist and Loyalist paramilitaries. We won't find out what exactly happened due to the secrecy surrounding the events.

We're edging closer to finding out though.  BBC are increasingly showing more of these types of documentaries, highlighting the side of the Irish Nationalist/Catholic that no one wanted to listen to before.

 

The British Government have issued two apologies so far for Bloody Sunday and one as late as yesterday relating to the killing of a catholic school girl by a british soldier.  So yes, in one respect whilst the full truth maybe taking some time to come out, at least there waves being made and misguided accounts that we all knew were totally wrong, are now being changed.

The Irish Government have also requested an apology for the original Bloody Sunday as well.

The Government have more to do than merely apologise but, they have to clear peoples names who were initially treated as criminals but were unarmed when killed.
