Is this letter not libellous?

Dont expect decency or truth from the likes of that sectarian paper !!

Just be fair about the whole thing, I won't expect them from Gerry Adams either.

why  -what did he say or do to merit your last post?

Oh not a thing. I don't know what came over me, to be honest, since everybody knows that Gerry Adams is the first name on the lips of the nation when decency and truth come up for discussion. He's a Mother Theresa in a beret. Sorry about that.

thats a good bit ott for an 'answer' to that hardy to be frank.
It is out of left field and shows that in your dislike of the guy you fail to heep between the ditches.
While I am no fan of his (for my own reasons), I will try to keep it as objective as possible - unlike most on here !

obv there are plenty of people who have been taken in by the propaganda and also now believe that Adams was an active member of the IRA when all really know he hadnt the bottle for it

Maybe "plenty of people" don't think that active membership was in any way courageous in the first place?

irrelevent to the point as per usual

Not at all. You're saying he couldn't have been in the IRA because he "hadn't the bottle", implying that membership requires courage.
I don't know how much "bottle" is/was required, nor do I know whether Gerry Adams would have it or not (you seem to know that he doesn't/didn't).

...see my prev reply to you...


actually if you have nothing of note to contribute other than irrelevent ridiculousness - why not stay out of these threads ?

So you think that saying someone has no "bottle" is objective?
Subjective surely.

Why would I?
And please explain to me how my reply is irrelevant. As it was a direct response to one of your posts, was your post not relevant?

Does this answer anyones question as to why Adams doesn't admit membership?
