Re.: Stevens Report to be finally published



This syndrome is so familiar it ought to have a name.
Death Squads and the right in Central America.
The pied noirs in Algeria.
The paramilitaries in Colombia.
Now Ireland.
It ought to have a name, and a brief definition,
because a pattern is clear:
the imperialists always use "irregular forces"
to vanguard repressive apparatus,
but deny it while it is happening
until the time is long gone when anything could be done about it.
It claims "that was then, this is now, things are different,
you know we fight for liberty."
And then they do it again.
