Head of Northern Ireland Police Says We Must Negotiate with al Qaeda

Talk about stupid. Read what Hugh Orde, chief of the Police Service of Northern Ireland, has to say:



A police chief was slapped down by the Government yesterday for suggesting Britain could open talks with Al Qaeda.
Sir Hugh Orde, head of the Police Service of Northern Ireland, said he knew of no terror campaign that had not ended with negotiation.
And he said his 30 years spent tackling the IRA had convinced him that security work and arrests were not enough to defeat terrorists.

What a raving idiot!

UPDATE: I have learned that Hugh Orde is a political appointment of the Labour party. He was sent to Northern Ireland to run the police service at the behest of Sinn Fein.
