This meticulously researched book uses previously secret official
documents to explore the tangled web of relationships between the
top echelons of the British establishment, incl Cabinet ministers,
senior civil servants, police/military officers and intelligence
services with loyalist paramilitaries of the UDA & UVF
throughout the 1970s and early 1980s. Covert British Army units,
mass sectarian screening, propaganda 'dirty tricks,' arming
sectarian killers and a point-blank refusal over the worst two
decades of the conflict, to outlaw the largest loyalist killer gang
in Northern Ireland. It shows how tactics such as curfew and
internment were imposed on the nationalist population in Northern
Ireland and how London misled the European Commission over
internment's one-sided nature. It focuses particularly on the
British Government's refusal to proscribe the UDA for two decades -
probably the most serious abdication of the rule of law in the
entire conflict. Previously classified documents show a clear
pattern of official denial, at the highest levels of government, of
the extent and impact of the loyalist assassination campaign.
