The first victim is the Truth

Rating: 1/10 (28 January 2002)

Here we go again...another piece of one sided political propaganda which fails to give a realistic rounded view of this incident when IRA terrorists shot at British troops under cover of a local riot.
There is little mention of this perspective, this would hardly suit the political agenda which this film waves loudly. There is no discussion of the events leading up to this incident ie that large numbers of police and innocent civilians had been bombed and killed by terrorists under similar circumstances.
The so called civil rights march also included people calling these terrorists, political prisoners, presumably they would believe that those Al Queda prisoners in Cuba are political prisoners also.
The film ignores the facts in the search for emotional fairytale land. A poor film which deserves to be called a party political broadcast. 1/10.
