Gerry Adams, The I.R.A., Jean McConville and the Next Irish Election

The New Yorker has a long article on the likely involvement of Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams in the disappearing of Jean McConville.  Mark Ames replies to the article here.  With a Dail election possible this fall, and Sinn Fein currently leading some polls, expect more similar stories ahead.  From spokesman for terrorists (and [almost certainly] brigade commander in the I.R.A.) in the 6 counties to Prime Minister of the Republic of Ireland?  That would be one of the stranger consequences of the Great Recession/European Depression.
