- John_Graham_(loyalist) abstract "John "Bunter" Graham (born c. 1945) is a longstanding prominent Ulster loyalist figure.It is unknown when Graham joined the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) but he quickly rose high in its ranks as a member of the "Brigade Staff" (Belfast leadership) to allegedly become UVF Chief of Staff in 1976. At some point in the late 1970s, he was admitted to the Mater Hospital for a short stay. Although he was watched by bodyguards, the Provisional IRA decided to assassinate him, in what they termed "Operation Bunter". However, this was prevented by the police, acting on information received from an informant.In 1983, Joseph Bennett, one of the UVF commanders, became an informant to the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC). As a result, fourteen prominent members of the UVF were imprisoned, including Graham.On 14 January 1993, Graham was hit by rifle shots, fired through the window of his home. The Irish National Liberation Army (INLA) claimed that it was responsible for the attempt on his life. The attack led to a number of other leading loyalists turning their homes into miniature fortresses for fear that they too would be targeted.Graham has been named on several occasions as the incumbent UVF Chief of Staff, and as such holding Brigadier-General rank: for example, by Pat Rabbitte, and by campaigner Raymond McCord. Investigative journalist and author Martin Dillon uses the pseudonym "Mr F." to refer to a "military commander" in the UVF, who he states was "known as Bunter". Ed Moloney in his book Voices From the Grave: Two Men's War in Ireland stated that he has held the position of UVF Chief of Staff since 1976.McCord also claimed, in a statement to the United States House Committee on Foreign Affairs, that Graham had acted as an "agent of the state".In 2000, amid a violent UDA-UVF feud, Graham was involved in talking to hardliners in the UVF and dissuading them from escalating the conflict. Under Graham's influence the UVF members who were feuding with the UDA West Belfast Brigade agreed to a truce negotiated by the group's political representatives David Ervine of the UVF-linked Progressive Unionist Party and Gary McMichael of the UDA's political arm the Ulster Democratic Party.It was reported in the Belfast Telegraph in 2011 that the UVF was planning a march on Belfast's Lisburn Road for 2012 to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Ulster Covenant which would be led by Graham. In the event a parade did take place on the Shankill Road on the anniversary although Graham was not present at the head of the march or otherwise as he was on a trip with other veteran loyalists and republicans to the Middle East to study the Arab-Israeli conflict and the lessons it might provide for Northern Ireland.".
