It's frightening to see them bandying it about just to suit a present, completely unrelated agenda.

There were a couple of unionist nutters calling for British troops to be brought back to the streets of the north last week despite the PSNI being an armed police force. Very dangerous posturing just to try to stick it to 'them'uns'.

I suppose any bomb victim Fred. Ridiculous to think otherwise.

I am sick of BBC news, SKY news, all week IRA, IRA,IRA, . There not talking about Irish famine? our the the UDA,unionist terrorists,?

Because if they're on the side of the British they're not terrorists. Bombing London is bad but groups bombing Dublin's not important enough. The biggest loss of life in a single day in the troubles and there was collusion from the British security forces.

Fred Holroyd, British army captain said this of the bombings:

"the bombings were part of a pattern of collusion between elements of the security forces in Northern Ireland and loyalist paramilitaries"

M15 themselves reported that 85% of the UDA's targeting information was supplied by security forces. The UDA wasn't made illegal until 1994 by the way.

So the British media and government can go on and on about the IRA but I don't take them seriously. A lot of it is uneducated Brits with zero idea of the blood on their country's hands whining about the IRA. A group which gained massive support because of their policies, Bloody Sunday and the development of a segregated state in Northern Ireland.

I was chatting to to a guy here about the north and I mentioned the lack of democracy for Catholics and he said "you're talking about a few centuries ago right?". Zero clue about what is essentially his own history.

Why would a telephone call cause chaos?

In relatively free societies you can't murder or lock up 'dissidents' so you need to use propaganda.

But like all those murdeed in British terror attacks in Iraq and elsewhere.

Deaths during the troubles is around 3000 people. Civilian deaths during the illegal Iraq war was 155,923. Seriously Britain feck off with the IRA. They gained support because of your policies and sectarian states. You have no moral high ground.

People saying the IRA only killed such and such ...please that is horrible? How many times do you have to kill for it to be bad?

And Ireland went on about 1916 and the famine for ages so go ahead britain ...enjoy.

Persephone kindness

Although the Jim Davidson crowd and Irish jokes galore...can cop on though.

Monaghan man (44) convicted of IRA membership

New IRA bomb plot foiled after 6kg of Semtex is seized in city

I'm thinking that the BBC and SkyNews are are mentioning the IRA lately because the IRA are up to their old tricks again of blowing sh|t up.

Only now, they'll be linked to ISIS, and will probably get carpetbombed to the stone age.

so you fail to see any correlation between Saturday night's attack and the Balcombe street gang, who did pretty much the exact same thing. Attacked innocent people in pubs and restaurants?

can you not see it, or do you not want to see it?

Or the deaths of over 100k civilians in Iraq. Can you see it or you do not want to see it. 100k innocent civilians. I wouldn't defend bombings and the deaths of innocent people.

Deluded.

steddyeddy

Oh by the way I don't agree with bombing innocent civilians. My view is that the British created a situation where violence was going to happen.

Targetting soldiers is a better way to engage IMO. In fairness to McGuinness he steered the IRA towards military targets.

I completely agree with the actions of the old IRA. They were fighting imperialism. Then again the British media even compare them to ISIS. They can't even respect our freedom fighters who won our independence.

I think Fred means all people who use bombs are the same unless they're British.
