The most powerful image that abides us the picture of Martin McGuinness laughing with his former bitter enemy Ian Paisley. i have been thinking about the article I wrote on the death of Martin McGuinness . It's quite clear how deep hatred goes.Whatever can be said Bout his past one cannot deny that his rejection if violence was a key element in persuading the provisional IRA to accept the peace settlement . Without that many more would have died. The tragedy is that the most angry and unforgiving were those with military links. I stand by the old song Universal Soldier " he's a universal soldier and he really is to blame's " you know the words and we all know the truth....The arms trade and unthinking obedience leads to the working classes of various nations slaughtering one another on battlefields across the world. Distractions like this keep our rulers in power and maintains the status quo....Wake up There was only one war that was different and that was World War 2 but even then we should not forget how many individuals of the ruling class had sympathy with fascism ....
