Half truths or worse from the IRA
This week the commission for the location of victims remains has
closed down its search in County Monaghan for the body of Gerry Evans.
The search for the remains of the disappeared has been fruitful in
some cases, hopeless in others; depending on the quality of
information passed on by the IRA.
And it is not only the families of the disappeared who have been
challenging the memory of the IRA.
Some families of those killed as informers have been talking to the
IRA and seeking information about the reasons their loved ones were
killed.
The answers are not always satisfactory here either.
I have been talking to the family of a young man shot
dead by the provisional IRA nearly 40 years ago.

I find the whole IRA-Provisional IRA confusing, as i am from an Irish heritage i obviously know certain information that has been handed down to me over the years. Posts like this which is superb by the way, help me and others understand the more pressing points from the aftermath thank you.
