Oh well, an apology from Cameron is almost as good as justice
BRITISH PM APOLOGISES FOR THE ‘UNJUSTIFIED AND UNJUSTIFIABLE’
British Prime Minister David Cameron has apologised to the families of those killed by the “unjustified and unjustifiable” actions of British paratroopers on Bloody Sunday.
Following the publication of the long-awaited Saville report, which found that the 13 people shot dead in Derry’s Bogside on 30 January 1972 were innocent, unarmed civilians, Mr Cameron said the British Government was “ultimately responsible”.
“And for that, on behalf of the Government – indeed on behalf of our country – I am deeply sorry,” he added.
Mr Cameron also paid tribute to the campaign to uncover the truth mounted by the families of victims of Bloody Sunday.
“Nothing can bring back those that were killed but I hope, as one relative has put it, the truth coming out can help set people free.”
In a statement, a spokesman for the Public Prosecution Service said: “The decision whether any individual will face prosecution arising out of the Saville Report is solely for the Public Prosecution Service acting independently in accordance with the Test for Prosecution.”
“The Director of Public Prosecutions, together with the Chief Constable, will consider the Report to determine the nature and extent of any police enquiries and investigations which may be required to enable informed decisions as to prosecution to be taken.” </em>
How hard can it be to try them all for murder? And then give them the same treatment they gave the Irish.
