Dear "anon",
Hard to know where to start with this drivel.
1. Republicans know more than most that the RUC special branch and the garda special branch have long been in cosy collaboration.
2. "What happened to the policy of calling for the disbandment of the RUC/PSNI!!!"? SF wants community policing controlled by, and accountable to, the local people. Clearly there is no role for the reconstructed RUC in this regard, and SF has led the argument against it.
3. Sinn Fein do not support the PSNI.
4. Sinn Fein does not support the Garda Special Branch.
5. The Omagh bombing has left many serious questions unanswered. Given the shoddy planning of that operation the dogs on the fucking street (and least a few of which were PSNI/RUC/Garda doggies) knew the riRa were up to something
6. The omagh bombing suited the agenda of the brits, and it is likely they had a hand in allowing it to happen.
7. This whole fiasco demonstrates to a wider audience the corruption inherent in the special branches, and it therefore in Republicans interests to ask embarassing questions.

Next time, please try to think things through, instead of believing everything you read in Saoirse.
