Adams: on unionism

John Farmer interviews Gerry Adams for the first time in twenty years, this time they are in Manhattan. He notices a change from their last meeting:

"...some of the hard edge one heard 20 years ago seems softened. He may or may not have been a gunman, but Adams is a politician now -- with a politician's sensitivity to the requirement for patience, even for an understanding of the other side."

Update: However, not everyone in the US is impressed. The New York Post editorialises - via Hawk Girl.
