		Since this henious deed relatives' and friends of the 10 Protestant workmen murdered by the IRA in South Armagh mark the anniversary of the massacre by laying floral tributes at Kingsmill.
		It is interesting to note that a police dossier carefully prepared on the Kingsmills massacre has recently come to light.
		The Tullyvallen massacre, another terrible atrocity, was thought to be the work of some group calling itself the South Armagh Republican Action Group; but that, too, was undoubtedly a cover name for a gang of cross-border PIRA terrorists.

		Though the Catholic Revolt began in Ulster on 23 October 1641 with the widespread massacre of Protestant settlers in that province, the flames of revolution did not reach Tipperary until December when St. Leger, the Deputy of Munster, marched to Clonmel with a strong military force.
		Kingsmill of Ballyowen near Cashel, were stolen by 'idle fellows from Eliogarty'.
		Eventually a tradition of careers in the military establishments was formed...and as the years went by the Irish Diaspora became less discriminating as commissions in the British service were as eagerly sought after as those in the the regiments of Britain's enemies.

		Without ignoring the impact the Northern Ireland troubles has had on the area, MacDonald juxtaposes this with the history and culture of the Fews region and the efforts to build cross-community bridges and develop rural tourism and farming.
		Examining the British security presence and local hostility to it MacDonald explores events like the kidnapping of Robert Nairac in 1977, the Kingsmill Massacre, the killing of John Patrick Green - which threatened to crack the 1975 IRA ceasefire and Cardinal O'Fiach's intervention in the 1980s 'dirty protest'.
		A journalist by trade, MacDonald also relates how he personally was refused permission to visit prisoners in the H-Blocks, who were willing to 'sacrifice a family visit so the outside world would know what was happening'.

		When I responded to your original point about the Kingsmill Massacre I was challenging what I regarded as a historical myth.
		Sectarian killings did not lessen because of that massacre.
		To perpetuate that myth whether you approval or condemn the action, is to leave the door open for some idiot in future to justify similar actions by reference to actions that the Provisionals or the Catholic Reaction Force carried out.

		Paisley’s “evidence” is instantly rejected by Alan Black, the sole survivor of the massacre, who immediately goes to the Reavey’s house to publicly stand with them and affirm their innocence.
		The 6 members of the Reavey and O’Dowd familys were massacred on the day before the Kingsmill massacre.
		The Kingsmill massacre did happen after the murders of the Reavey and O’Dowd families probably and unforgiveably in retaliation.

		Frazer says he has little faith in the IRA cease-fire and believes pro-Catholic paramilitaries could resume their campaign of violence at any time because they retain a secret arsenal of firearms and explosives.
		Frazer also wants the 1976 Kingsmill massacre, in which 10 Protestant workmen were killed and one injured by the South Armagh Republican Action Force — regarded as a cover name for the IRA — to be recognized as a war crime.
		The massacre was one of the most shocking incidents of the Troubles, and left the Protestant community deeply traumatized.

		The five nationalists were massacred in Grahams bookies shop on the Ormeau Road — it is one reason why the community rose up and determined that the Orange Order would not march down the Ormeau Road again, without the Orange order first meeting the residents of that road.
		One of those Frazer and FAIR claim as a victim is Robert McConnell of the UDR (a regiment of the British Army) and the UVF (a unionist paramilitary organisations) who was involved in the killing of the Catholic Reavey brothers the day prior to the Kingsmill Massacre of 10 Protestants in 1975.
		Frazer's web site includes reference to a speech made by Ian Paisley in which Paisley said under parliamentary privilege that Eugene Reavey, another brother of the dead Reaveys, was responsible for the Kingsmill massacre.

		Mr Blair warned Mr Hague that he was being "dragged along" by people who did not wish the peace agreement well and said: "I do question the motives of some of them." It is believed he had in mind Andrew Mackay, the Tory spokesman on Northern Ireland.
		Ian Paisley, leader of the Democratic Unionist Party, later used a debate on Ulster to read from what he claimed was a police document listing the names of alleged IRA men said to be linked with the Kingsmill massacre in 1976 in which 10 Protestant mill workers were killed.
		Tory MPs threatened last week to name the people believed to be responsible for the Omagh bombing but backed off after being told it such a move could prejudice a trial.

		First, although it's a gripping read and each paragraph seems to follow from the previous one, on a chapter-by-chapter scale it's a bit disorganized.
		One chapter, dealing with the Kingsmill massacre and other events over the course of several years, is entitled "A long-awaited day", but never identifies which day in particular it's talking about.
		Second, it's all about military operations by the IRA in South Armagh and doesn't attempt to deal with the internal politics of Sinn Fein or the IRA.

		I don't recall the Kingsmill massacre, but I do remember being very affected by the Darkley massacre.
		I think that a big part of the problem is that a lot of people seem to need something to affect them personally before they take a view on it (or that seems to be expected norm).

		Perhaps the most shocking, because it was perpetrated in the realm of the sacred, was the massacre that occurred at Darkley Pentecostal Church.
		The "Poppy Day Massacre" is perhaps the single worst incident in the history of the troubles if indeed we can single out one single atrocity amongst the catalogue of those perpetrated by the IRA.
		The attack was so vicious and so nakedly sectarian that many within the catholic community who had sympathized with the IRA came out in open criticism of the organization.
