If I remember correctly, weren’t there IRA provocateurs who opened fire briefly on the British troops from one side, which started the shooting by the British?started the firing.

It is true that those who ended up being shot were unarmed, but if memory serves, the British soldiers were provoked by individuals who them immediately faded away, probably om order to provoke the outcome that occurred.

The IRA was a bloodthirsty lot, and they had little compunction in sacrificing innocents to achieve their aims.

Yes there is a video out there where you can clearly hear gun shots before the Army opened fire.

The IRA always used marches and riots to lure the security forces in to ambush them.

This is nothing but a witch hunt and appeasement to the Adams and McGuiness etc and to say screw you to those who have served from Britain which includes N Ireland,
