Northern Ireland marks 50 years since Bloody Sunday
FOX NewsSep 09, 2021
Residents in Londonderry have marked the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Northern Ireland.
A British Parachute regiment shot 14 Catholic protesters dead in the city on Jan. 30 1972 in what became a turning point in ongoing clashes known as the Troubles.
Granting amnesty to Northern Ireland veterans was undoubtedly motivated by a desire to draw a line under the tragic and traumatic events of the Troubles and help all involved move on.
The British establishment is closing ranks around those responsible for the brutal murders of civil rights protesters. Subsequent govenment cover-ups and refusals to prosecute are an insult to the victims' families.
