Britain must come clean on CR gas Long Kesh prisoners exposed in 1974 In the wake of the tragedy in Moscow, in which scores of hostages were killed by a nerve gas pumped into a theatre by Russian forces attempting to end a siege by Chechen rebels, this article by Coiste na nIarchimí's JIM McCANN on the British Army's use of CR gas against republican and loyalist prisoners in Long Kesh in 1974 is timely indeed. In the year 2000 alone, British arms manufacturers sold £3 billion worth of arms to countries all over the world; such as Israel (£12.5m), Iran £12m), India (£64.5m), Pakistan (£6m), Oman (£96m), Turkey (£188m), China (£51m), Malaysia (£138.5) the list goes on and includes most, if not all, of the most sadistic regimes on earth.

Invitation to Sinn Fein Tommy McKearney Speaking on Sunday's Breakfast With Frost programme, Ulster Unionist leader David Trimble said the only thing, which would avert suspension, was the resignation of Martin McGuinness from the Stormont executive. He added that if, "Martin McGuinness was a man of integrity, he would resign, and there would then be no suspension." This interview contains a more significant message than is normally found among the usual hectoring and bandying of insults that usually passes for political debate among Northern Irish politicians. By specifically mentioning Martin McGuiness and not naming Bairbre de Brun during the course of his conversation with David Frost, David Trimble is quite clearly sending an invitation-wrapped-in-a-caution to the Sinn Fein movement.
