So poor old Pat Doherty was wheeled out to condemn the nasty Republicans. This used to be the role of the Stoops.

Howyis ! Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness appealed for anyone with information to assist the police. The Sinn Fein MP for the area Pat Doherty described it as an "absolute outrage". "We have moved on - there is no turning back to the old days," he said. I bet Marty wishes he could still phone Mo Mowlam - to pass-on info on those responsible , rather than asking her to clear him to pass through a BA checkpoint : sure he's a Brit minister now and those same 'checkpoint-charlie' BA soldiers would be guarding him ! And 'Ten Cars' Doherty should realise that the "old days" ie the Brit military and political presence on this isle , are still festering here . We can't "move on" until they 'Move Out' ! Slan Anois ! Ireland.

I must commend those Volunteers involved. Ireland Unfree Shall Never Be At Peace.

Howya BCB ! Yeah , same here : it's an operation that I have no problem with . Slan Anois ! Ireland.

pat doherty is and has been a suspected tout for many a year i wouldn't worry too much as to what he's got to say about this attack on the british police force in the occupied 6 counties mo chairde give it time and it will be proven ric..ruc..psni..abcdefg..it dont matter what they call themselves,,they are the eyes and ears of british rule in ireland and if so called nationalist people in our country want to get paid to be foolish enough to uphold"law and order"on behalf of britain......in our country, then absoloutely..they deserve what they get its plain and simple better luck to them lads next time

McGuinness visits officer injured in bomb attack
www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk McGuinness visits officer injured in bomb attack By Claire Weir Martin McGuinness has paid a hospital visit to the Catholic police officer injured in a bomb attack. The Deputy First Minister called at the bedside of the officer — who suffered serious leg injuries when a bomb blew up under his car on Monday night. A spokesman for Mr McGuinness today confirmed that a visit had taken place at Altnagelvin Hospital but would not elaborate. He said: "It was a private matter." The former IRA chief's move came as condemnation continued to grow following the attack at Spamount, near Castlederg, which is being blamed on dissident republicans. A top ranking policewoman has said the officer, believed to be from Omagh, could have been killed if members of the public had not intervened and dragged him from the flaming vehicle. Assistant Chief Constable Judith Gillespie added that it was too early to say which dissident grouping had planted the under-car device. ACC Gillespie said that when she visited her colleague in hospital, he had seemed in "good spirits" but had very serious leg injuries following the explosion. "He was based in Enniskillen and was on his way to perform night duty in Enniskillen. Nobody should be attacked in this way," she said. "He has serious leg injuries and will take some time to recover. He has had surgery and it is expected that he will make a full recovery. "He is in good spirits but he needs rest and care and our thoughts are with him and his family. He will be affected both physically and mentally but he is very determined to get back to work." ACC Gillespie said that the PSNI will be working hard to develop intelligence surrounding such attacks. "These incidents have been happening throughout the province and we will not in any way be deterred from our duties. The Chief Constable has already stated that dissident republicans have the capacity to mount attacks, " she said. She added that security is kept in constant review and, while it was too early to say how and where the bomb was attached to the car, she confirmed that it was an under-car type device. ACC Gillespie said the PSNI would continue to protect the streets in a high-profile and visible manner and would not be retreating behind walls. She also thanked those who helped pull the officer from the car. "I shudder to think what might have happened, he had a very, very fortunate escape. The car he was in was absolutely gutted and chances are that if he hadn't been pulled out he could have been much more seriously hurt or he could have died." One of the first people to arrive on the scene was local man Tommy Sproule who said that he and other members of the public helped move the injured officer a safe distance away from the vehicle, just moments before it erupted in flames. "If we hadn't moved him, he was only about two metres from the boot of the car, his injuries would have been a lot worse than what they were," he said. Mr Sproule said that the officer, whose leg was cut almost to the bone, feared it had been blown off altogether. http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/atex-imports/article3701479.ece © Belfast Telegraph

The four men were arrested at a number of locations around Co Tyrone. They are being questioned in Antrim police station.

The Provies coming out in force to condemn this attack didn't particularly surprise me; they're as much of a joke as the SDLP in that respect. Overall, a fine assault on the programme of normalisation currently being implemented.
