Sir, - It is sickening and deeply disturbing to see the honourable name "Oglaigh na hEireann", the Irish title for our defence forces, dragged in the mud by a minority of headless, fascist morons. That offensive misappropriation is an infringing offence in itself. The hijacked title should never be blandly accorded to these little brainless, visionless Nazis, even in reportage.
The people of the island have spoken in a referendum. Any attempt to bring down the Good Friday Agreement, overwhelmingly endorsed by the Irish people, is flying in the face of democracy. Will the O Bradaighs, the Sandses, the Paisleys, the Pattons, the Robinsons and the paras of all paradigms accept the will of the people democratically expressed? - Yours, etc., J.P. Duggan,
