I suggest that should the horrors which I have attempted to outline tonight. have been committed by any nation other than Great Britain. we would have long since imposed sanctions against it. Francis Gildernew is only one person caught up in our national indifference to the cruelty being perpetrated upon the Catholic minority in Northern Ireland. We. as a nation which in 1966 waived in nearly 2 million illegal aliens who had committed just as much or more fraud than he Is accused of. should cease harassing and attempting to deport a hardworking man like Francis Gildernew. We cannot survive as the envied land of a second chance if we allow our own system of justice to be brutalized and made indifferent to human suffering. I for one. believe that the Americans I know do not want our land to become blind to the concept of mercy or calloused toward the suffering of others.
