Irish National Caucus welcomes today’s Congressional Hearing— Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission Hearing: “Northern Ireland: Accountability at Risk.”
Posted By: February 15, 2022
“Irish National Caucus welcomes today’s Congressional Hearing. Every Congressional Hearing is an official act of the United States Government, and as such demonstrates powerfully American concern with the proposed British government amnesty plans.
However, I think it is a pity and mistake for the Belfast Protestant campaigner against British government collusion, Raymond McCord, Sr., not to be included in the panel of witnesses.
As is well documented, and cannot be disputed, no one in Ireland North or South has done more than Raymond to expose and oppose the British government amnesty plans. He got the support of all relevant political parties, North and South, the Irish government, the Labor Unions, etc.—and did it all from a cross-community basis, in a victims-led and victims-centered Truth and Justice Movement.
