Attacks on PSF members Counter Productive.

32 County Sovereignty Movement
11/5/2009

The 32 County Sovereignty Movement categorically deny that the litany of attacks on homes of PSF members and their property, culminating in Sunday nights attack on the home of Mitchell McLaughlin in Derry, are the work of anti agreement republicans. We also condemn, without reservation, attacks on monuments to our republican dead and other acts of wanton vandalism on republican monuments and state that those involved are guilty of crimes against the republican community.
Attacks on members of PSF, their homes or their offices are wrong and counter productive. The 32 County Sovereignty Movement are of the opinion that these attacks are being orchestrated by a dirty tricks department working in the state’s interest and being carried out by criminal elements.
These attacks do nothing to further the cause of republican separatism and serve only to polarise and divide republicans and republican communities. These attacks are taking place at a time when our members and supporters are winning the argument for republicanism against reformism, these attacks on PSF only deflect attention on their failure to protect the republican position and we welcome open, democratic debate on this issue rather than recrimination and tit for tat attacks that conveniently prevent debate from taking place.
