Raymond Gilmour was a member of (successively) the IRA, INLA, and again IRA who was an undercover agent for the RUC and became a supergrass in 1982. This stencil in London Road near the New Gate is perhaps caused by his complaint against the intelligence services (BBC).

Here are various walls supporting Stephen Murney, an éırígí (web) activist currently in prison since December 2012 on terrorism charges (BBC-NI).
The first is in Hugo Street, to which an éırígí star was later added;
the second (from March) is on Divis Street;
the third, next to the outstretched arms of Jim Larkin, is under the advertising hoarding in Northumberland Street – in November, Larkin and the banner were replaced with the stencils in the two following images.
The final image is from the Andersonstown Road.

“They think that they have pacified Ireland, they think they have purchased half of us and intimidated the other half … [They think that they have foreseen everything, think that they have provided against everything;] but the fools, the fools, the fools! …. [they have left us our Fenian dead, and while Ireland holds these graves, Ireland unfree shall never be at peace]” The closing words of Patrick Pearse’s oration at the Dublin graveside of Jeremiah O’Donavan Rossa in 1915. His remains had been repatriated from the United States to Ireland.

“End internment, 1971-2012. www.eırıgı.org.” Imprisonment without trial was introduced in Northern Ireland on August 9th, 1971.
