The question one has to ask about the Guildford Four and the Maguire Seven (and one or two other supposed IRA atrocities) is that if they weren't responsible then who was? Answers on a postcard to the Inc c/o Box 500.
The result of the liquid bomb plot, 911, 7/7 et al is to have permitted the government to impose Big Brother on us. As an example, a few days ago I transferred a small sum of money to France - less than £500 - as a deposit for a family holiday next year to celebrate our Fortieth wedding anniversary. My bank insisted on being given a reason for the transfer, under money laundering laws. A polite struggle ensued. On principle I declined to give the reason, but it became obvious that the payment would not be made (or worse, would be returned at extra cost). Eventually I gave a reason that was neither the truth nor a lie. I don't like being put in this position. How I spend my money is my affair and not for my bank or the government to contemplate. Especially when the sum involved clearly cannot be for money laundering due to the small amount transferred.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
