The 30 January 1972 in Derry, dell city’ Northern Ireland, the 1st Battalion of the parachute regiment of the British army fired against a crowd of demonstrators for civil rights, by attacking 26. Tredicidi died soon, the fourteenth died a few days later from his injuries. It was Sunday and this tragic event went down in history as Bloody Sunday. Behind this Act there is a bitter conflict between the two main dell’ Northern Ireland or the Unionists British and Protestant wire array on one side and the Republicans Irish and Catholic wire across. The first faction descended from British colonialists occupied the Irish soil from the 16th century and numerically were two-thirds of the Northern Irish space. They held political and economic control of that area. L’ the other faction was the remaining third of Northern Ireland, But even the majority of Ireland. In 1970 He was born an armed group called IRA, Irish Republic Army, which ran guerrilla Northern Irish police and British army. The latter defended the unionists while l’ IRA defending Catholics. In this land of bloody fight had sent police to arrest and hold in custody without trial those stained by acts rioters using a measure called Internment. This situation of refusal before the law did move the protest of Derry, a peaceful protest, but over in the blood due to the disproportionate response of the British paratroopers. For years the leaders of that’ Act remained unpunished. A first Board, chaired by Lord Widgery and wanted by the British Government, acquitted British army leaders involved. Then a second Commission of inquiry, chaired by Lord Saville, with the help of 900 witnesses and years of difficult investigations came to recognize the responsibility of the 1st Battalion of the parachute regiment of the British army, and that the victims were incapable of causing damage to the English military. Prime Minister Cameron said that it was an act of unfair and unjustifiable. Only in 2015 It was the first arrest of one of English military blamed for killing one of the victims. Bloody Sunday instead of quelling the protest he encouraged and strengthened the IRA and confrontations in later years. In 1983 U2 released the song "Sunday Bloody Sunday" to remind everyone that tragic Sunday and to ensure that the rhetoric of “Hopefully not happen again″ you face reality soon.
