Again, not sure why you are bringing that up as if its got anything to do with my post.

I suggest reading your post again.

I don't need to read it again. I wrote it..

You are posting from an anglo/occidental viewpoint.

China is not "the international bogeyman". It is the bogeyman of countries allied with the US locus.

Not sure what it's got to do with the thread.
Not sure of the details regarding soldier F either. Someone might have more knowledge but my first instinct is that if you want justice you should be looking higher up the command chain.

I put it here as a reply to the post by Newfhouse...the chance of getting convictions of anyone higher up are slim,even more now our government passed the Legacy bill.But for the families of the victims who have been fighting/campaigning for more than 50 years for some justice it's long overdue.

Prosecuting soldier F has little to do with justice.
Go for his commanding officer or better still those who sent the Paras in as a 'peacekeeping force'.

They're all dead. Protected during their lifetimes.

People who were boy soldiers at the time are all that's left.

One of the unforeseen downsides of this is that it'll give more opportunities for self-adoration and self-aggrandisement to Johnny Mercer

You might think differently if it was a family member of yours.

They've been trying for the past 50 years, It took over 30 years and incredible guts and determination just to get the Bloody Sunday enquiry.
But your right this thread isn't the place for this....I won't post on it here again.

To be fair to Bob, I think his point is not that soldiers should not face justice, but that really it should be the officers who gave the order to fire who should be first in the Dock.

I have some sympathy with this. There is no way those soldiers would have opened fire without being ordered to.

Very true, as might Soldier F's family

Or the family of the 29 murdered in the Omagh massacre. None have been brought to justice (though a civil case was brought and won)
