CLARIFICATION
ON LAST ISSUE OF NATIONALIST WEEK -ULSTER AND REPUBLICANISM
Some
folk are asking for clarification of the main article in last week's
issue of Nationalist Week on the "Man behind the Wire" first paragraph.
The BPP
in suggesting the Republican song being used to represent our own White
Nationalist prisoners did not mean in any way to endorse Sinn Fein/IRA
Marxist Republicanism nor did we wish to encourage anyone to enter
Republican bars to listen to the song. We were trying to highlight the
plight of our own prisoners of conscience both Loyalist and White
Nationalist. There is actually a Loyalist version of the song "Men
Behind the Wire" and this can be found on YouTube by clicking here.
(This is a link of course and we think dates back to around 1973,
so view it as a historical piece of work of interest to all observers
of Ulster Loyalism) Apologies to anyone whom this
article's first paragraph has caused some misunderstanding.
