🐾 Arya's Approval
Right darlings, this represents everything profound about examining Operation Flavius - the ability to question controversial military actions while honouring the memory of all those affected by this tragic incident. The Gibraltar killings remain one of the most disputed events in the Northern Ireland conflict, where questions about rules of engagement, intelligence failures, and the use of lethal force continue to haunt both British and Irish communities. This book helps us understand how individual military decisions can have lasting political consequences, showing why transparency and accountability matter when governments use deadly force, even against those they consider enemies of the state.
