TO THE POINT

TO THE POINT

DEEPEST CONDOLENCES: Like most other people, we, as a family, feel helpless and useless. It matters not from whichever side of the political/religious divide any of you come from, we send you our deepest condolences.
The animals that have inflicted a life of pain and bewilderment on you, and others before you, will never be forgiven by us. No doubt somebody will misguidedly seek to appease. These are the people requiring forgiveness.
We wish you the peace that all of you seek and all the time, itself often an enemy, that you need as families to try and regain some semblance of life.
T J & D P Hurford, Cleveland, England.

TRUST ONE ANOTHER: Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with the grieving families who have lost precious loved ones, have had family members and friends maimed and injured and are suffering so inconsolably at the moment.
We must ensure that our determination to build that new society, based on love and trust of one another, not only prevails but is strengthened. We owe no less to our children, grandchildren and generations not yet born.
ANNE CARR Co-ordinator Women Together For Peace

TIMELY WORDS: I am reminded at this time of the words of James Connolly:
"Ireland without her people is nothing to me, and the man who is bubbling over with love and enthusiasm for 'Ireland' and yet can pass unmoved through out streets and witness all the wrong and suffering, the shame and degradation wrought upon the people of Ireland, aye wrought by Irishmen upon Irish men and women, without burning to end it, is, in my opinion, a fraud and a liar in his heart."
Those behind the Omagh bombing should read this carefully.
RONAN McCAY Chairperson SDLP Youth

CHALLENGE TO SINN FEIN: Is it not time Gerry Adams proved by actions that he is the political leader of a party with a peaceful democratic mandate?
The Real IRA are obviously still on the cowardly, murderous, terror train, so surely SF/IRA must totally change tracks by giving up all terrorist links in their bid for peace, naming the murderers and fullv decommissioning.
B.R. WHITE Newtownabbey.
