Danny Morrison nails it. "The statement represents an ominous development and a major deterioration in the peace process," says Danny Morrison, a republican writer and former IRA militant. "Republican frustration and anger has been building.... There is a feeling that each and every time republicans have made concessions, the goalposts are shifted by unionists, often with the support or tolerance of the two governments" of Britain and Ireland. All this hoo ha isn't really about the IRA, but the rise in popularity of Sinn Fein. Its electoral mandate in the Six Counties has surpassed that of the SDLP. Sinn Fein candidates won five seats in the last election, giving them influence in the South for the first time in sixty years. Attacks on Sinn Fein in the election's aftermath were hysterical. They are on the verge of a major breakthrough and the political establishment and mainstream opinion makers are in a state of shock, they're pulling out all the stops.
