Examination of the comments of John Reid, Secretary of State Northern Ireland, about preventing Northern Ireland becoming a 'cold house' for Protestants.

From the BBC Web Site: "Kevin Magee's report looks at what is going on inside the loyalist paramilitary Ulster Defence Association as concern is expressed in the wider unionist community that Northern Ireland must not become "a cold place for Protestants". In spite of years of political negotiations and talk of ceasefires, the UDA continues its stock in trade of extortion, beatings and sectarian murder. The UDA has created a climate of fear where, if the writing on the wall is to be believed, every Catholic is regarded as a target. The programme reports that the organisation's six area commanders follow no co-ordinated strategy and it is the hawks who are presently in the ascendancy."

From the BBC Web Site: "Spotlight talks to members of the Arab and Jewish communities in Northern Ireland about the bloody Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Reporter Barbara McCann concludes that some members of these two communities in the province appear to have taken sides in the Middle East conflict. In 1948, three years after the Holocaust, the State of Israel was proclaimed in Palestine, finally giving Jews a homeland. But, for many of the Palestinians living there, it meant a future in exile or feeling like foreigners in their own land. Both sides want their own recognised and separate states and this apparently insoluble international problem has resulted in years of conflict and war."

Examination of the internal Church of Ireland debate around the Orange Order's use of Drumcree church.

From the BBC Web Site: "This programme looks at the recurring crisis at Drumcree in County Armagh which has created a rift within the Church of Ireland about its relationship with the Orange Order. As reporter Vincent Kearney explains, the Order is not the only organisation to have been traumatised by the dispute - the Church has also been damaged. And there is a fierce debate amongst its members about what it should do. Some want the doors of Drumcree church to be closed on the Orange Order. Others say that would be unchristian, and a grave mistake. Many are concerned that the Church has become identified with a protest which has frequently been hijacked by loyalist paramilitaries and erupted into violence."
