The Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland has issued a statement
about sectarian attacks on Catholic churches, and another
arson attack on Greenisland Orange Hall in Belfast.
"We condemn without reservation these sectarian attacks
which are designed to create community tension.
"The people who attack our property or those who attack
catholic churches must be handed over to the police. Their
actions are despicable and must be condemned by everyone.
"The people who attack catholic churches do not speak
for the Protestant community.
"There are evil people on all sides in the community
who want to cause strife and create havoc but it is up to
the law-abiding population to make sure they do not have their
way."
