Another Historic Day
I sort of sad that I'm not in the country to get some sense of the buzz about this. I am glad that this is getting more internal recognition though. Even if people don't understand the specifics; any story of peace winning over terrorism is worth making news about.

Was'nt much of a buzz about it as you would think Mick-san.
The minute we all heard the statement we all said
"Paisley will find some excuse not to accept it"
and sure enough he did'nt accept it.
Claiming that the 2 clergy men, one a catholic priest, the other a methodist (NOT CURCH OF IRELAND, ULSTER SAYS NO!), where "not reliable characters"
The final arms commision will be due out in january...and this will undoubtedly show the IRA have put arms beyond use....and the unionists will either have to concede that the IRA is gone and form government...or completely abandon the agreement.
"Paisley will find some excuse not to accept it"
I wasn't expecting different; but at least one side is moving forward, and the rest will have to do something or risk being left behind.
