Sir, - Your paper reported Bertie Ahern as saying (July 19th) that the last IRA
ceasefire was "sincere and genuine". What about the nine people murdered by the
IRA during the ceasefire? What about the beatings and the "practice" murders and bombings? So much for a "sincere and genuine" ceasefire. So much for Fianna
Fáil rhetoric. - Yours, etc., A. Hartnett, Glasheen Road, Cork.
