Of course, by contrast S O Buadhaigh wrote:

Einde also pointed out that what I wrote was a matter of much discussion
in Ireland.

Poor Luko, he can't deal with the fact that Irish republicans and
socialists are routinely discussing the question of police agents in the
Provos, so he ignores the fact that this is common currency on the
republican and socialist left and instead responds solely to me,
accusing me of "playing the game of the cops".  

This has got to be a new low in the form of "argument" used here by Luko
and Gould.
