Philadelphia, Boston, NYC & Washington D. C. ABC leaders released a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken seeking his action to hold the UK accountable for its 30 year (1968-1998) killing spree of British Subject/Irish citizens in Northern Ireland. British Command Paper #498 proposals were specifically intended to cover-up State targeted collusion murders with loyalist bigots. Britain’s no investigation, no arrest or trial murder of Sinn Fein elected officials and supporters has no precedent in a modern democracy claiming to support the rule of law.
Chairman John Corcoran noted that former UK Defense Minister & Brexiteer Liam Fox once declared that: “The UK is one of the few countries in the EU that doesn’t need to bury its past.” The proposals in Command Paper # 498 do just that. Fox refused to cooperate with the Irish government in investigating the British Army role in the no-warning bombings of Dublin/Monaghan and his successor Ben Wallace demands impunity for Army collusion killings with loyalists in N. I. “If the New Atlantic Charter is to mean anything, the British must end the cover-up now, acknowledge their lawless deeds and aid the families of victims with truth and justice.”
Barbie Brexiteer Liz Truss is Secretary Blinken’s opposite number in the UK. The former Trade Secretary ‘forgot’ to inform Parliament on three separate occasions of prohibited arms sales to Saudi Arabia’s butcher Crown Prince Mohammad bin-Salman. She is presently undermining the GFA and the Northern Ireland Protocol. Is that the kind of respect, truth and trust the U. S. Congress and the Department of State can expect from the British government?
“Very problematic for the American people,” continued Boston attorney Jim Foley, “are the Annual Human Rights Report sections on the UK. They make no reference to the work of N. I. Police Ombudsman Maguire and Anderson or the tactics of obstruction and the policy of impunity for security services. The recent Tom Lanto Human Rights Commission hearing conducted by Co-Chairs Chris Smith (NJ) and Jim McGovern (MA) must be the beginning of holding not only the British but the U. S. Department of State accountable. The British could never have succeeded in burying their legacy of lying for so long without the complicitly of Foggy Bottom.”
