James ‘Josie’ Connolly Ógra Shinn Féin in Castlederg held a successful book launch of the recent Ógra publication, ‘Awaiting The Lark’. The launch coincided with the presence of the hunger strike exhibition on Saturday 16th September in Aghyaran.
Local chairperson, Eunan Carlin chaired the proceedings. Also present were Derry Republican Charlie McMenamin, who wrote for the book and Ógra National Organiser Barry McColgan, Ógra Shinn Féin Uladh Organiser Andrea O’Kane and West Tyrone ÓSF chairperson Barry McNally

Barry McNally gave a brief background to ‘Awaiting the lark’ and explained how it developed from an idea of a book looking a the effect of the hunger strike in Tyrone to a national publication reflected the views and feelings of people nationwide in regards the 1981 hunger strike.

Charlie McMenamin, Andrea O’Kane and Barry McColgan then read excerpts from the book.

The event was concluded with a reading of the names and dates of deaths of the 1981 Hunger strikers by local Ógra activist Stephen McGahen.

Josie Connolly believed in armed struggle. He believed in blowing up cops/UDR men and Brits. He would never have accepted an internal settlement.
Why are these pro-Stormont monkeys hijacking his memory to further their aims. It's no different to the Fianna Failers claiming Breen, Barry or Brugha.
Give it up lads. Poor Josie is probably turning in his grave.

Most people see through the lie that Sinn Fein are still a Republican party with Unity as their main objective. In fact they are no different to De Valera's Fianna Fail who when they got into Government rapidly forgot about a United Ireland. The Sticks did the same.
Sinn Fein have made fools of themselves begging to be allowed into a Paisley led Government and you can be sure that when they get in they'll not want to be kicked out again. So this talk of a United Ireland will gradually fade into the background as they rigorously go about proving that they can be just as efficient at running N.Ireland as the Unionists.

Activity, Positivity and strategy is what SF are about, Apathy, negativity and arguing with SF strategy is what Dissadents are about.

Seriously - there is no movement even a percentage of the strenght of SF, all there suppossed 'strategies' aren't practicul, are completely detached from society, they are completely irrelevant, who the f**k knows what 32CSM, RSF, IRSP actually do, outside of the world of the internet, what do they do, are they active in communities - No, are they active in trade unions - No, are they actively engaging in a armed 'war' against the British - No, do they have any electoral support - No, do they have support from the community which manifests itself in big protests and support for their campaigns - No, do they have any influence on community, student bodies, trade unions, councils etc, anything that actually exerts pressure on the Brits and the Free Staters - No!

The answer to all of the above for SF - YES!

Stop criticising SF, they are actively pursuing their strategy with vigour, time will tell if they are right. What are you's doing (in the real world that is - not the comfortable battlefield of internet land)?

Onwards to Freedom!

Sinn Féin all the way!

Sinn Fein active in Trade Unions? What about their association with the Anti-Union Micheal O' Leary's Ryan air?
Do they have any electoral support? The SDLP used to say that about Sinn Fein and when SF got that support they became just as bad as the SDLP. Don't forget that Fianna Fail has more electoral support than SF does that make THEM good Republicans?
Now a days What big campaigns does SF have? Get us into Government under Paisley.
Exert pressure on the Brits and Free Staters! WHAT PRESSURE? It's SF who are being pressurised into the acceptance of Unionist rule.

Present your strategy you negative bitter twisted yahoo! What are you doing phil, didn't hear any constructive answers or criticisms there phil, just the same old usual SF bashing.

People like you......................................................

Armchair, keyboard rebels!

Ok what is Sinn Fein's Strategy for achieving a United Ireland after they are allowed into a Paisley led Government?

Typical of a Shinner to whine about Sinn Fein bashing when they thrived on doing that to the SDLP. The reason your opponents keep on attacking your bogged down party is because so many good and brave Volunteers have given their lives for what? Seats in a Unionist controlled Government administering Brit Rule.

Strategy Phil???????????????

People like Jim Lynagh, Gerry Harte, Mairead Farrell and Francis Hughes would have made short work of a fool like you!

Your sitting in the arm chair doing nothing!

SF pursue a stategy that is delivering! It has support from the Republican community, both electorally and then manifesting itself on the streets as seen at annual Easter Sunday Commemorations, Marches and Protests.

We are guided by the people, we are of the people, and with the people! You are stuck on your keyboard you wag!

I refuse to engage with you any further until you present an alternate realistic strategy?

I wonder what Frank Hughes would have made of a certain call by a Shinner for those who planted a bomb to be brought to justice?

What is Sinn Fein delivering? OK so they took votes from the SDLP but where did it get them? No further than the SDLP got in 1974, a few brief moments in a Stormont Government before the Paisleyites kicked them out.

I knew that you couldn't answer the question about achieving an United Ireland from Stormont because SF just doesn't have the answer.

An alternate realistic strategy to WHAT? The acceptance of a northern Parliament with Paisley at the helm?
Mind boggling!!!!!!!!!!!!!
