Subtle Alchemies IV: Miasma, the Stain of Spilled Blood

The concluding episode of Subtle Alchemies. Herein, I discuss the ideal / innocent victim / victim-perpetrator paradigm as well as looking at the cowardly murders of Edgar Graham and Sean Brown. Killed for who they were perceived to be representative of. Also, the murder of RUC officer Jonathan (Jon) Reid.An in-depth series of episodes revisiting subjects such as asset-handling, intelligence streams, RUC SB, MI5 et al, are planned for the new year. Works citedMcKittrick, D., Kelters, S., Feeney, B., Thornton, C., and  McVea, D., (eds), Lost Lives (updated and revised), Mainstream Publishing, Edinburgh and London, 2007Orwell, G., Homage to Catalonia, Penguin Classic, 2000         Click here if you’d like to send me a comment or question.
