MR RICHARD
The point that I am making is quite simple, that in due course we will hear evidence as to why Mr McBride was prepared to accept that his acts were his own acts, not those of the organisation and it was so as to protect his organisation.  The point I am making in relation to this particular paragraph is quite simple, what he said at his trial is quite consistent with a man who understood that he should protect his organisation from the brand of terrorism.
