It is unfortunate that it took so long and cost so much money to arrive at the report and its acceptance of blame. However, I commend the British government for persisting, gathering the facts, and putting forth the apology. Bloody Sunday was really a tragic day for not only the victims and their family but everyone involved in Northern Ireland. The violence spiraled further out of control and led both communities toward unspeakable and cruel acts. An eye for an eye mentality made everyone blind. While hardly comparable in scale- I pray that those in the Middle East would be able to learn some lessons from this tragic chapter and work toward a peaceful resolution in their conflict.
