the PSNI (the new squeaky-clean RUC, mar dhe?) has yet to issue so much

as a

mugshot to the public, preferring instead to have the usual 'anonymous sources' mutter dark rumours about an imaginary crack Provo gang.

Instead, it appears to have seized the excuse to turn Nationalist parts

of

Northern Ireland upside down, perhaps in a nostalgic mood for the good

ol'

days...

Can you imagine if the IRA were actually *that* good?

There would have been a united Ireland 20 years ago.

This tale of "the IRA did it" requires such a massive suspension of disbelief that I'd be surprised if any person with a modicum of intelligence and an open mind (obviously, Davy Trimble excludes himself on at least one count) could take it seriously.
