Sean O'Callaghan claim

[edit]

In the article it says " Sean O'Callaghan describes Steenson as someone who "never took to orders".[12] How would Sean O'Callaghan know the personality of Steenson? When a) Steenson was locked up between 1975 - 1980, the height of O'Callaghans activity. b) O'Callaghan was a member of the Provisional IRA, Steenson a member of the INLA & founder of the IPLO. c) O'Callaghan operated in the IRA's rural East Tyrone Brigade, Steenson on the other hand operated in the INLA's urban Belfast Brigade, it's highly unlikely they ever had a conversation with each other.

Seamus Costello

[edit]

The IPLO didn't kill Seamus Costello, the Official IRA did.

Harry Kirkpatrick

[edit]

There is no mention in the article of Steenson's friendship with informer Harry Kirkpatrick.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 16:22, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    ""I can say without hesitation that he will remain the most evil person I have ever met. There was an aura around him that oozed pure evil, as if he was the son of Satan himself, I will never forget that evil bastard's face."[citation needed]"

should be deleted, unless we know the soldier who wrote it, what he wrote in, a book or a journal, and in what capacity the soldier met Steenson. Guest 00:38 29 September 2021
