BHigginsonNI: Ex-Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams' claim that IRA 'could have continued forever' rubbished by range of commentators.
Former Special Branch Detective Insp William Matchett said the terror group "could not have gone on another 18-months never mind forever".
EoinPoil: Adams may be right, IRA could have continued killing on limited basis with ROI a Ho Chi Minh trail,but IRA was winding down-informers,grey hairs,increased security abilities etc
bfchild66: Utter bullsh*t from terrorist Adams.
They were on their knees , losing support from grassroots "war " weary nationalists sick of the slaughter & riddled with touts .
Gerry Adams claims IRA could have gone on ‘forever’ without Good Friday Agreement
TedSmyth: Correct about Trimble. Good Friday Agreement: Gerry Adams praises David Trimble's peace bravery - BBC News
AnnTravers6: You are disgusting, Mr Adams.
IanGreenwood6: Good Friday Agreement: Gerry Adams praises David Trimble's peace bravery - BBC News
Redpolitics: Former Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams says he only realised recently how difficult it was for Ulster Unionist leader, David Trimble, to support Good Friday Agreement
RonanMcCay: Surprised to hear Gerry Adams say he didn't fully appreciate the pressure David Trimble was under post-agreement. Did he never open a paper or watch the news?
SF had their own challenges to navigate, for sure, but they did Trimble absolutely no favours. And now we have the DUP.

recovringlawyer: Going by this photo, Gerry Adams and my father are almost indistinguishable now. It's the indoor gilet that seals the deal.

Same person in my mind. Like Harold Shipman, David Kelly, and Gerry Adams.
McguinnessNyc: 1 week from tonight will be the 2nd annual MMPF dinner. Congressman Richie Neal will introduce our special guest, Gerry Adams to reflect on the work & legacy of his good friend Martin. Be sure to get your tkts by calling Amanda at 631-777-6928.
MalachyQuinn: Gerry Adams gives yet another interview that is contradicted by other interviews that he has done. Hardly shocking.
cliff_moffett: Gerry Adams says he's 75 this year & believes he will see a united Ireland before he dies. I can assure him that wont happen. The Union has over 60% approval rate in Northern Ireland. So like many republicans before him who are now 6 feet under, they didnt get to see a UI either.
Independent_ie: Gerry Adams claims IRA could have gone on ‘forever’ without Good Friday Agreement
cliff_moffett: Isn't it incredible that on the upcoming 25th Anniversary of The GFA and at such a sensitive time, the best Gerry Adams can offer is that the IRA could have lasted forever and refuses to condemn continuity IRA activity as N. Ireland terrorism threat level rises.
News_Letter: "Isn't it incredible that on the 25th Anniversary of The Belfast Agreement and at such a sensitive time, the best Mr Adams can offer is this goading claim? Where is the leadership? Where is the contrition for all the violence?"
ctaoc: No contrition. Ceal aithrí.

BBCMarkSimpson: Gerry Adams & Sir Reg Empey back in the room where the Good Friday Agreement was negotiated 25 years ago.
nicksays_summer: When Gerry Adams dies, it'd be pure craic if he released a video recorded specifically to be released at his death of him confessing to being involved with the IRA, and the collective entirety of Ireland feigns disbelief and goes, "Oh were ya now?"
Calderpeople: Before the Good Friday agreement was reached, long before, Gerry Adams had to approach the UK government, David Trimble had to get his people to the table, and people had to abandon moral certainty. When that was threatened by the UK they had to decide it would not end.

petrovdempski: GERRY ADAMS: Paying tribute to Martin six years on -
mikkipedia: BBC Witness History is so great, today I learned about the invention of dry ramen noodles, the occupation of Jersey, and an interview with the guy who did the voices of Gerry Adams and Martin McGuiness when Thatcher banned them from the airwaves, so good.
_chloebot: what would gerry adams do
hynessl: Mary Lou McDonald interview in Der SPIEGEL. Gerry Adams referred to as “civil war veteran”. I think the translation from German must be wrong, as we would refer to him as a terrorist here.
andrewbloomberg: New Gerry Adams nom de guerre just dropped
jcslattery: This is wild: during the Troubles, the British banned Gerry Adams’s voice on British media.
They could still broadcast images of him, and accurately report the contents of his remarks.
But they couldn’t transmit his *voice*. His voice had to be dubbed.
jon_agar: But someone who was keen on a BSE inquiry was Gerry Adams.
So odd to see a letter to the Prime Minister of the UK on Sinn Fein-headed letter paper. December 1997 - still four months away from Good Friday Agreement
The_Wee_Doggie: Shared Ireland board member and former SDLP councillor Brian Feeny claiming Gerry Adams was a member of the Provisional IRA...
The_Wee_Doggie: "Armed struggle.....is a necessary tactic...."
Over three thousand lives lost, tens of thousands injured, both Catholic and Protestant, a United Ireland as far away as ever...and Gerry Adams called all that pain and suffering, a necessary tactic.....
The_Wee_Doggie: "For a very brief period I thought of becoming a Priest or a Christian Brother"
"How do you orphan ten children ?...what kind of depravity is that"
"Who sent me to London, to blow it up ?"
"Who ?"
"Gerry Adams"
"For a very brief period I thought of becoming a Priest...

The_Wee_Doggie: Former Provisional IRA Chief of Staff, Sean MacStiofain describes Gerry Adams as being a member of the organisation that killed more Catholics than anyone else, the Provisional IRA....
gabrielmilland: The trouble with stuff like this is it just reminds people that nearly all the Labour front bench campaigned to put a guy into N10 who thought Gerry Adams was basically right and whose strings were pulled by lunatic tankies.
adamf2384: That Jill Scott seems canny, but could they not do what they used to do with Gerry Adams on the news in the 90samd dub her to save us from that supa dupa computa accent?

I'm listening to Léargas: A Podcast by Gerry Adams on Podbean, check it out!

“But as any student of Anglo-Irish politics will tell, it will all end in tears as all of unionism’s dalliances with the British have.”
_chloebot: what would gerry adams do
BoxingFanatic_: The Gerry Adams timer one.
The_Wee_Doggie: Recent footage of Gerry Adams in the United States at a recent Sinn Fein $2000 dollar a plate fund raising event...Gerry was said to be still hungry even after dining off the backs of Bobby Sands and the Hunger Strikers for 40 odd years....

petrovdempski: GERRY ADAMS: Irish-America's commitment to reunification still powerful
_chloebot: what would gerry adams do
Simon76_: The BBC should start overdubbing anyone from The DUP with the voice of an actor on the news, like they used to do with with Gerry Adams.
louiskasatkin: I've never understood what strategic goal the IRA had in mind to achieve by perpetrating this barbaric outrage against ordinary civilians in Warrington.Neither have psychotic scum such as Gerry Adams & his comrades in arms ever bothered to explain let alone repent of their evil.
HeyOmarComingYo: So I see Sinn Fein is trending. Time to remind the 80s kids of Gerry Adams' best quote:
"............................................................................................................................................................................................"
the_conveyancer: To preserver my anonymity I will be accepting my award by audio link, with that bloke who used to do Gerry Adams for the BBC doing the voiceover.
FOSFCanada: Another great podcast from Gerry Adams. Have a listen.
Listening to "GFA25 Gerry Kelly | St Patrick | Bono's Book" at
meatshowerky: yes. actually. that's what happens. fascism requires a reordering of civil society where racialized, politicized terror is the norm. if you let it sit there, the reordering begins.
also winston churchill was a butcher and the only thing gerry adams did wrong was stop.
padraigdurnin: I see Gerry Adams' Andytown News column really grapples with the pressing issues of the day.
suggie48598040: Gerry Adams
irishamerica: On this day in 1999, the funeral of Northern Irish human rights lawyer, Rosemary Nelson, was held. She was killed by a car bomb outside of her home in Lurgan, Co. Armagh at the age of forty. Gerry Adams talks about Nelson with Patricia Harty here:
theirishobserve: Alliance Party member, Sam Cushnahan, operated brothels across Belfast, Women and Children were trafficked into the brothels by Sam Cushnahan. Monica McWilliams referred to Sam Cushnahan as "Sammy", Sam Cushnahan with his helper, Gerry Adams Snr Raped Children in Kincora!
stateless_gypsy: Sinn Fein covertly IRA boss Gerry Adams, a fact conveniently forgot by Westminster nowadays.
ForthviewJambo: Could we not starve the Tories of the oxygen of publicity by banning their voices from being broadcast and having Gerry Adams do voice overs?
JoeEDwyer: 1983 Troops Out Movement interview with Gerry Adams - drawing parallels between working class communities in Belfast and Brixton…
R4FcMuK7k8IhUKz: While some on here mention "Davy tweed" as a "child abuser" and call Jim allister a "pedo supporter". These are the same people who class Gerry Adams as a "hero" and a "martyr" remember he knew his family members and IRA comrades were abusing children but never stopped it.....
diva_political: Coming from another country, I never saw its effect as necessarily benign, and certainly, in the news department. it has long lacked impartiality (going back to the ridiculous policy of providing a VO for Gerry Adams, in case he might - I dunno - make a case for Catholics
Time4Truth_: One of those court processes would be that taken to try to prove Gerry Adams was commander-in-chief of the IRA. We may not have long to do so, so please lend your support.

KanasRiverGuide: If you don’t believe me, look at Gerry Adams’ face.
They may be white but still against nature, not fully human. I’m sorry if this offends any of you. I joke.
But if you’re Irish, maybe you WAKE UP and save your nation from the simians that have overtaken it.
RhysMcKavanagh: It was a huge back & forth of us sharing nationalistic songs, Ian Paisley speeches, Gerry Adams memes - it almost caused a huge family feud: what started out as a funny joke got taken too far by me & my cousin Matt when we decided at our old age to act like teenage boys.

citizenjournos_: Bill Clinton has been accused of raping women. (
theirishobserve: Transition: I was one of the few within SF/PIRA who could actually write. As a member of Monaghan/East Tyrone SF/PIRA, Joe Cahill asked me to write for An Phoblacht supporting the Policy change in 1986, which would see Gerry Adams over-throw the Freestate Leadership of SF/PIRA.
_chloebot: what would gerry adams do
uk_rants: I'd live beside Godfather of Genocide & lover of goats, Gerry Adams, before I'd live beside War Criminal Tony Bliar.
Gerry's crowd have murdered/maimed people I care about & still his crimes pale in comparison to that corruption of humanity.
Why is he here? For whom does he act?
theirishobserve: Gerry Adams said, "I was satisfied Aine was telling the truth, I knew my brother Liam had raped her when she was 4, I had no further dealings with Liam"...Here is Gerry with Liam long after Liam is known to have raped Aine...Martin McGuinness also knew, here is Martin with Liam.

Gerry Adams is a cunt.
What kind of coward hides behind a kid?

christinafinn8: Richard Neal says Windsor Agreement is another example of ‘compromise’ and the ‘spirit of trying to get to the goal line’.
He says the granting of the visa for Gerry Adams in the 90s was ‘extraordinary’, saying he backed the Clintons on it.
‘It worked, it worked,’ he says.
ShriramKMurthi: 4/ What was the difference between the IRA and the Provos? What was their relationship with Sinn Féin? Who was Bobby Sands before he became famous? How were other fasters treated? And maybe most of all, who is Gerry Adams? Keefe covers it all. ↵
