borderland of south armagh an area of ireland steeped in celtic mythology where the ghosts of colon we may have been mccool and. haunt the counties many barely cairns crypt. its rugged slopes green themes and sweeping plains reach out to the fuse that cradle the resting places of 18th century poets such as arc with courage park much along the and shamus more much more of hope. a land where ancient quarrels have been settled but yet find time to reignite. there's an ironic tragedy between the beauty of this night and the dark secrets at home it's.

a follow up my mother in the late sixty's and they got married and set up home and alfonso. at the time my father was working in the rolls royce factory in belfast. until some of his war college find out he was a catholic and he had to leave. he then worked as a postman in the area for a while at this stage we were living in the some millis area of. bad there are a small number of catholic families living in the area that i am on we've been warned on a number of occasions it was time to leave it and i suppose the final straw for us was on our almost after one of our near neighbors at windowsills and mommy and daddy obviously said to stop states it was time to move out of the whole foster on the decision was taken to move on at that stage. a band from birmingham mommy wanted to move there she felt would be safer but my father left the country safe. so. so we ended up there. i suppose my

last recollections of my father are leaving to go to the hospital to visit my sister she was only 2 days old at the time. surely the last that i can remember of seeing them going out through the front door to us at them in the hospital. particularly even on my was with my father on the intention was to stop it on the spar on the way home and i was out of character is drunk with his workmates. they don't we just arrived about the same time as the gunmen. shot up the front of the bar. domain killing him almost immediately michael don't leave the bar owner sean ran into the bar none had banged the door. he was followed into the bar boy by the con man who spread the inside of the building with bullets.

hitting my father on the on the number of other individuals and seriously injuring them then threw in a bomb. hit my child only in the back of the head and killed him almost instantly. the bomb exploded. my father was probably already dead because he'd been shot and before long. i came to walk and islands in $981.00 and i found myself increasingly drawn to cases of miscarriage of justice when nobody else was taking a particular interest and also in the potential for the state to take life illegally and as a journalist you're always looking for stories that nobody else is investigating it was an ordinary sunday morning and i was reading the paper and a name sprang out of the paper. bracknell somebody called bracknell had been killed

in south. and i thought breck no that's not a south. so i managed to contact the family and went down to meet them and. witnesses from the scene. had been killed explained to his widow who was sitting in the room with me exactly what had happened and it was a shocking shocking experience it was the fast time that an bracknell as her husband had been mad i think the shock of finding out what we find. to the family really how little we know about my father's killing and he was actually responsible for it. i phoned my news desk expecting them to leap on the story and say give us everything you've got but the irrational was quite different it was oh no not enough a catholic sob story. i was just so so disappointed in her. reaction

to what i've discovered. pushed for the story to be written under the end it was. in and around this time information started to emerge about what were to be enormous loyalist attacks in the area. i suppose i didn't know much more about water top and other than the other group called the right on commando claimed responsibility for the attack. so at this time i begin to ask questions of myself about what i did or didn't know but what i actually help and i started to ask questions of local people about what they remembered about what they knew about the night and but we didn't know it really know where to go to try and find out more answers. someone mentioned to me the center in derry help families and summer situations to ourselves. i think it was 1009. 100 the office very softly spoken very friendly he was wearing a suit and we thought. there are

a are a printer and instead he began to tell us about the attack on the bar and if it is dad and what happened on the park round he was aware that there was nothing david available where we made a number of very serious allegations or collusion behavior and a number of attacks on the area. so we agreed we would look at it in detail and look at all the different attacks that happened in the area at the time it was all very new deal so. up to the point we've been active in a number of cases we've been knocked her own plautus on the. bloody sunday just as campaign was was based on the office and we agreed to call together a meeting of witnesses and the g. open and silverbridge and what just as came forward a lot of witnesses came forward. and i suppose the significance of the meeting was that you had families with evidence and information but you also had witnesses the events and the significance of this being that there were so many connections so many permutations so many leads to follow obviously these had never been followed

by official bodies are for people in authority even little it's been hugely influential moderate than we've lived thirsts you know this is something we need to do we need to take this forward and you know what happened in my home in my local was killed in the incident is connected to what happened on the road is connected the happened over just across the other kind the what happened the kneeler part that they was partial in the sense that if we were in the room we appointed 2 yet either a witness to something the how to lead a piece of evidence that connected to another one the connected turn and then what really was unfolding was the sense that there was this gang the security force people are supposed to protect people supposed to bring people there just those who are actually conducting these killings and county in the moat. you might imagine that in a normal situation they'd been they'd been asked to give statements that the police would have asked them for statements this hadn't happened and they came forward. we

began to realize some we were going to something much much bigger. as we began to research this on the talk to people in the local area many of them told us so there was actually an officer involved in the original list he was actually in charge although he was novice or very little rank that they believed was a person of integrity they believed he tried to get to the bottom of this but couldn't . he talked to the families a number of times over the years and they the families told us that he will be an absolutely fatal person for us to talk to. families of those killed in an attack on a silverbridge 24 years ago have appealed for a fresh inquiry into that atrocity. so we arranged a press conference. and appealed for him to come forward we thought at all likely

but in fact he did and he made contact with us shortly afterwards through a journalist. it was quite an extraordinary making to many ways we were accompanied by a number of family members and this police officer who still serve and made a number of statements. that made all surreal what we were looking up was actually a much wider range of attacks. was the. main thing to come out of the meeting which was the term he used permutations of the same guy were also responsible for the other attacks and so. called mccartney and august 1985 who are returning from the final. and also the bombings of me in 1074.

somebody else kind of had a hairstyle like our look like her from the back health itself and was hard. and often difficult. although at that time the pad for new consent and justice for the gotten was beginning to investigate the activities of the glen i'm going already 2 very ordinary catholic priests living in the area have done a fair amount of investigation themselves they'd even started rushing to the newspapers and trying to get the 2 governments involved because they realized that there must be a cohesive gang working in the so called murder trial carrying out these murders it had to be there were too many of them they did everything they could to highlight it after one series of 17 much as they should

a statement saying that they are you see had a 100 percent failure rate in convicting anyone for these murders and they went to dublin they went to belfast they wrote letters to the papers yet it seems that the police were just not interested. in nobody. legacy it's no good make complaints against the better battery we're using and that is why you have no go areas but there you go an ordinary other this was a friend of mine and he visited presence of course and he was very interested in what was going on and run john and we saw that there were a lot of murders in what we called a triangle going down an area right into the my over to for a gun and we were taking the list of all the stats and then i decided that we should list them publish them and publish the 1st. at the trial. of death and it was

a name that was taken up by the media because ever afterwards they talked about the murder triangle so we left it and the little information we had from relatives at the time. and published through the pub which. it went fairly quickly so we published a 2nd when the word additions to it me published a 3rd for the cup it was more editions so that became a central central document and. we noticed that so many of these murders were hot and it seemed to us that the roads were open for these murders to come in and kill people and got over and get away again.

it was an architect or shortly after 10 and i got up and went in house shirt that's . 10 men were standing on the house my 1st car spotting and i told him yeah so our attorney backed. out and told pop there was 10 men out the door left and went inside and after supper a song no way to take action to set them on the tampa and now don't say hackney is fun to know you better ask me here i'm not going meth yes. and i am a cheating age and that tone of his face so something. and nice to manhattan right through the front door.

just. so you know we talk a lot on the show many years about economy and currencies and what makes a currency usually what makes a currency a scarcity for example gold is a currency it's money because it's scarce that's the primary reason people use it as money keynesian economics or socialism is usually unworkable because the people who are organizing it think that well you can just print all the money you need you need a program print more money there's socialism for banks on wall street as was pointed out recently won a big presidential debates in a bank gets in trouble just print more money well what's the alternate scarce commodity what is the ultimate scarce commodity think about what is the ultimate scarce commodity.
