The political part of the trip is underway as we crossed into Northern Ireland this morning. As the photos demonstrate, there is still tension between Catholics and Protestants. Londonderry on the border with Donegal has improved itself, but Belfast remains troubled. I gave my crew a tour of the area where I first reported on "The Troubles" in the early 1980s. We went to a place called Devis Flats - an IRA stronghold where weapons were hidden in apartments. I was allowed to witness a raid on the property, and it was nasty. British soldiers and Ulster police confronted hundreds of Catholics, and mayhem ensued.
