When is a War over?

Federal Unionism reads with scepticism the current hype in the press about arm’s decommissioning and the peace process. For the unionist establishment parties and the press, everything in the garden is now rosy because the war is over but when is a war over?

Federal Unionism-Early Sinn Fein obstinately maintains that the historic roots of discord and violence in Ireland past and present, lie in the constitution. If correctly observed, the six-counties/ N. Ireland is now constituted as being at war. There are two heads of state involved, two national flags being flown, two national anthems being sung and two national conflicting passports being travelled on. As well, the citizens of Belfast and Derry have barricaded themselves behind walls with kerbs painted in conflicting national colours. The war mentality persists in the constitution and is expressed in the murders at Mazareen and in Craigavon and in other diverse sectarian killings. The peace processes is phoney and fake.

Federal Unionism-Early Sinn Fein holds that a true genuine peace can only be found in a united Ireland context. To achieve this the U.K. constitution, which is undemocratic unwritten and imposed militarily, will have to be changed and replaced by a written democratic constitution which is acceptable to all on the Island. In this way the Island can be democratically constituted as united within a Federal Kingdom context as the Federal Kingdom of the Sovereign Nation of Ireland and Great Britain or vice versa. That is the only way Ireland can be made constitutionally stable, united and genuinely at peace. C.F. www.blogstoday.co.uk/irishproblemsolved.blog
