A chara, - Fintan O'Toole's column of June 28th - which, I suppose, was meant to be about the search for truth - was based on a lie. I was not leader of the IRA in Derry in 1973 and much of what he states as fact is not accurate.
This is not to take away from the fact that the Feeney family deserved the truth and an unreserved apology before now or that their grief was compounded by what happened.
Republicans are trying to redress these wrongs and we support the achieving of truth and justice for all those seeking it, without exception. - Is mise,
