      If the English would have start to apologise to every country/people/nation they did wrong, the parliament would have to stop working and reading apologies for a century straight. They held roughly 25% of all people and land of this green earth as "Subjects of the crown". The world still gives alot of shit to the Germans, in case of the eastern europeans I have understandings, while the English still hold on to parts of their colonial empire, which they call overseas-territories now. Even in europe with Cyprus. I don't count Gibraltar because they were given a choice.

      When a white police shoots a hardened black criminal in the line of duty, USA, its 'racist murder'. When British law officials shot at a wild mob shooting at them and hurling stones and other damaging objects its also 'murder'. But when IRA murderers kill innocent civilians, its a 'just cause'. Criminals in the USA and many other countries now, have all the rights and the law abiding and law enforcement persons have none. Mr Cameron, your British forces are indeed the worlds best. But the British/Irish investigators of this tragedy and others are the worst.

      @BossmanFromEnds as a German I agree with you (mostly). If the carpet bombing to that degree was a military necessity and therefore thoroughly justified is debatable, but the Nazi Regime was pure evil and had to be stopped by all means. Also, yes: the German Luftwaffe did this first and Germans did way worse. To compare the British Army - even given the disgraceful and murderous actions of the Paratrooper Regiment on Bloody Sunday, let alone the brave British men fighting during WWII - with either the Wehrmacht or even the SS is uncalled for whataboutism. I also heartily agree with your above comment regarding the assassination of Mountbatten and the two teenagers. I detest the atrocities of the Provisional IRA, the Ulster Volunteer Force and the Rogues within the British Army, corrupt British policemen and judges that put innocent men and women like the Birmingham Six or the Maguire Seven away into prison likewise! I pray that the hate will wither away and there'll one day be lasting peace in Northern Ireland. God bless!

      If you want to try people, you would have to try the UK government, the IRA, the protestors shooting and throwing objects and even the whole crowd for an illegal gathering. Not the soldiers for defending themselves or dispersing the illegal gathering.The so called responsibility is nice talk. Political. That's all.

    Mr Cameron's speech is indeed politically expedient, but it says nothing about the rights of an officer of the law to defend himself or his colleagues. Those of the armed IRA did defend themselves, but they caused the unarmed protesters to be shot. They are the ones responsible for this tragedy.

    • @ianseniormorrison

      Well I hope that mr Cameron's sympathizers, and supporters of the 'apology', will reconsider their stand against law and order. October 1st 2017, Vegas, USA, clearly illustrates what happens when law enforcement personnel pussy foot with permissive behaviour. Yes the law enforcers at Derry 1972 killed 14 people of an unruly, armed, illegal gathering bolstered by the deadly IRA. The IRA are responsible for that tragedy...not the law enforcers. On Sunday last 58 innocent people as well as the killer, 59 total, lost their lives because of negligent law enforcement.Now who should be apologising to who?

      The people who held the guns were responsible for the murders. No more, no less. You can dress it up however you want to but that truth is obvious to the world. What the British Army did that day was sick. It was inexcusable. They opened fire on unarmed civilians without warning. Those people never had a chance. Many were shot in the back of head while they crawled away. On the ground. Unarmed. More were killed while they ran from the safety of cover to HELP the injured or dying. It's disgusting. It was cold blooded murder. How dare you try to shift the blame and excuse it. You're sick.

      @@melchristensen8282 Lets get certain things abundantly clear. The loss of human life is tragic. It cannot be retreived.
      Why did the results found in the investigations ,that were highlighted in Mr Cameron's apology, not lead to trials and convictions of the military-law enforcement "offenders"???
      Why did these produce a different picture from earlier years' results???
      Why did Mr Cameron speak about small arms fire from the crowd ,but negate the justification for a return of fire???
      If there is evidence of murder /manslaughter, why apologise! Should such not result in arrests; even 40 years after!! And let us not forget that the gathering, at that time, was illegal.And do not forget the a New York police officer expert in ballistics, involved in an earlier investigation, concluded that lethal fire upon the crowd must have been coming from positions other than the soldiers accused, as well. And a lady formal Irish politician who held office as a representative of the government promoted a claim that British authorities planed the affair. Indeed very conflic ting postulates.
      So Mr Cameron's apology is empty political talk. It has an expediency as far as British-Irish relations is concerned.But does it bring about justice in his local setting??? Does it promote justice worldwide??? Do you know that over 700 police officers were injured in the USA during protests, last year, 2020. Not to mention the wonton destruction of property in the billions,and the loss of, it is claimed, at least 30 lives.
      It is simple. Law enforcement is for the protection of populations. If law enforcers are not protecting, they must be replaced. If they become felons, they must be convicted. And a felon must be, proven thus.
      An apology for a crime never proven to be a crime, is a very very dangerous affair. Put away political jargon. Use investigative findings to prove, or acquit of crime. The world has enough heresay, and when it comes to life and death matters,people in authority do not apologize for their charges innocence. And if they are going to apologize for the misconduct of a law enforceing army grouping, the misconduct must first be established to have been criminal ,by a court.
      Mr Cameron is not a Judge. His apology is baseless. It promotes good inter island British Irish relations, but it does not foster a spirit of law abideing character worldwide.When criminals can count upon being bailed out of their misdeeds, and the innocent, being presumed to be guilty, by authorities who do not administer justice, you are going to have a black and blue lives matter USA. When law enforcement looks too far from potential crime, you are going to have those who are lawless causing death to 59, even 100 in a couple of minutes.
      Solid facts Mister; forget your childish accusations. This is a life and death affair.If anyone should apologize, it would be the organizers of that crowd gathering on Bloody Sunday. Being politically bent, they knew the risks the crowd would face, it being illegal. I hold firm, Mr Cameron's apology is baseless, and does nothing to promote a law abiding world community
