>Following last night's riots in the Bogside area of Derry following the

>on record.
>
>The PSNI were already in position donning full riot gear with camera
>surveillance in the area surrounding the Tower Hotel prior to the
>commemorative proceedings being drawn to a close. This was a clear attempt
>to provoke youths in the vicinity. There was one arrest that we know of by
>the time the commemoration had ended, this only served to further
>aggravate the youths who attacked the PSNI with anything at their disposal.
>
>Not once did we witness the destruction of property belonging to ordinary
>working class people but a consistent and determined young people who
>attacked their oppressor. As the riot reached it's height, materials for
>petrol bombs were seized by local members of the Provisional Movement and
>removed from the area. We view this as an unrivalled act of collaboration
>with those who occupy our country and an indication of their newly found
>positions within British rule here which they are forced to defend. It is
>not the first time they have actively assisted the PSNI and will not be the
>last by any stretch of the emagination.
>
>The PSNI were seen to load plastic bullet guns before swarming the Bogside
>estate with the assistance of an already airborne helicopter unit. They
>were attacked with fireworks at this point and found easy scapegoats in
>people not involved in the riot.
