As a certain Mr Anthony Blair would say, "It's time to move on". Sadly, whilst he might say that, there are there are many thousands of others who can't, or won't, do that.

There are many dead, maimed and traumatised on both sides of this sorry equation ... and many of them show no inclination to give up "The Struggle".

In some respects, it remains the UK's local Afghanistan. It only needs a few extremists, on either side of the tragic fences, to kick the whole thing off again. And Mr Adams' investigation is a perfect 'cause'.

How sad. Justice, long overdue, may make things worse instead of better ... which is why I fear this will just fizzle out as being "too difficult"
