County Down Grand Orange Lodge at its Meeting on Saturday
condemned the removal of two security watchtowers in South
Armagh.
We must question the motives of those who continually call
for the removal of the watchtowers.
They are solely for the protection of all who live and work
in the area.
The only people who have anything to fear from the watchtowers
are those whose intentions are to cause death and destruction.
County Down Orangemen cannot understand how those responsible
for our security, could recommend measures, that reduce the
capacity of the security forces to defend the community.
It is obvious to all that the terrorist threat remains and
law-abiding citizens cannot but feel more vulnerable.
We seek assurances from security forces representatives that
the safety of those citizens has not been compromised.
