I just made the mistake of Googling Raqqi and then going to images!
Truly horrific ........................... you have been warned!
These 'people' must be stopped.

Slime.

P.S. I cannot over stress how disgusting some of the images are.

Raqqa you mean but yes very disturbing indeed. Beatings, crucifixions, beheadings and mass shootings into pre-prepared open graves.

These people need stopped, they are murdering more innocents than carpet bombing strategic targets ever could.

You say snidey. I say consistent.

I can bring more evidence that the CIA knew there were no WMD that he can that Adams and McGuinness are responsible for hundreds of deaths.

But you can't deny that Martin McGuinness was 2nd in command of the IRA in Derry in the late 60's and early 70's. And its hard to believe that someone can reach that position by making tea and discussing knitting patterns. There's more than enough evidence of what McGuinness has been involved in, and its understandable, though unpalatable, why he's not been persued in the courts.

Gerry Adams is harder to pin down, as he was heavily involved with Sinn Fein from very early on. However, many people have spoken of his direct involvement with the IRA's army council and the decision by that council to kidnap and kill the 16 "disappeared."

Whichever way its coloured, I'll always believe they were full on members of the IRA, and there's more than enough evidence to support that. But in terms of the peace process over there, their arrest and conviction would only kick things off again.

???????? Are you on about Syrian/Russion alliance using barrel bombs which could at a stretch be described as a form of carpet bombing or the Yank coalition alliance who are using precision individually fired weapon systems.

Do the targets for these precision bombs have signs like "ISIS Command and Control Centre" written on their roofs? I suspect that IS will hide their operations centres among the civilian population to ensure that they get good publicity from collateral damage! :mmm:

The statement was about carpet bombing, I presume you understand the concept. What has your post to do with carpet bombing.

I don't think Val was suggesting carpet bombing is being used

Sinn Fein also started to make noises that they had distanced themselves from the IRA and then up popped Adams & McGuinness, to men it appears who were responsible for hundreds of civilian dead, as leading members of Sinn Fein.

Right or wrong there were lots of dead on both sides of that divide.
I think you should now let this go and be grateful that folk like Corbyn and Mowlem brokered a means of peace.
You sound like a man who wishes the 'troubles' to continue.

Was Corbyn the one who actually "brokered" the peace deal ?

His name certainly didn't stick out during the Peace Process
 
I think that although relevant, we should leave The Irish Troubles out of this discussion,
Tis a topic that is still raw with many and has kicked off in the past on here.

Lets keep it current

Thanks
