[edit] Problems with this article

1) It isn't just republicans who call Derry that. The SDLP don't call it Londonderry either.

2) McGlinchey left the INLA before he was murdered. He remained a member of the IRSP however.

3) The Droppin Well bomb's victims weren't all RUC and civilians. British Army members were killed as well.

4) This article should emphasize McGlinchey's decision to put the INLA under "direct military rule," which worked for a time but eventually helped tear the movement apart. For instance it helped turn Harry Kirkpatrick supergrass.

[edit] Sources?

I'm quite concerned about this article and what information it is based on. It's virtually a carbon-copy of this [1] site. While I'm sure the information is factually correct it is a breach of copyright to make a direct copy of protected material.GiollaUidir 22:07, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
