Really?

What? are you saying from the IRA's point of view it wasn't a good operation?

In a recent documentary about that day a British soldier commented to the fact that it was a well planned military attack and an all round 'good operation' for the IRA which rocked the British military to it's core.

Well we have had loads of people killed over the years by the PIRA and whatever banner they fly under just so SF can deny involvement.

Sinn Fein thread. The IRA disbanded. I know it's tough to talk current politics, but sure give it a go?

Several threads have been started over the years on British actions that were unacceptable.

Every single time without exception, not a single poster offers an excuse for them, or compares what they did to other atrocities.

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Sinn Fein/IRA threads where the victim mentality of the Irish Republican comes to the fore, and they can't see beyond that.

This is made up.
You might have people explaining why the IRA existed or why they did what they did but you seem to be twisting that and inferring it's defending blowing up children. That's pretty dishonest. Or do you have quotes?

Don't forget the New & Improved IRA who shot and killed a journalist last year.

They've more connection to FG/Lab than the IRA. They actually exist because they don't agree with or want any part of SF. They are dissidents. The kind of people FG/Lab might make a senator.

Here is one for a start where a poster calls the killing of 18 people a "good operation". You won't see any of that in a thread about British atrocities.

The only thing it did was take the shine off a good operation in Warrenpoint the same day.

It is nauseating stuff. Stop pretending it doesn't exist.

TBF, he's not defending or excusing children being blown up is he? He's referencing a specific engagement. Or are you suggesting nobody has ever commended the BA for any action they carried out?

I posted an article about a FG tax scam from 2001 and got given out to by a guy for bringing up the past and who then went onto to rant about something that happened over 40 years ago.

He is defending terrorist atrocities. As I said already, find something similar in a British thread.

You won't.

I'd almost swear that you would have posted in the same threads as the poster named "maryishere" blanch.

And he or she is top of my head, to imply there are no pro-british/Anti Irish posters on these threads is patently untrue.

No he's not. He said that particular operation was a good operation. You are mixing up support or an understanding of the IRA with 'defending terrorist atrocities'.
The IRA were not about inviting the BA for tea and scones.
It's akin to you calling Johnson, the Queen, anyone with a poppy of 'defending terrorist atrocities'. A bit silly.

Callous arrogance of FG and their support is somewhat galling....they pontificate day and night about the ira killings 40 years ago,while turning a blind eye to homeless deaths on their watch....hypocrites through and through

Qiuit with the boloxology.
Are SF responsible for the, homeless deaths in NI as they're in govt up there?
The highest death rate of homeless people in the UK and Ireland is in the north.
But you chose a cheap shot at the govt here.
Grow up. Most homeless people have serious issues.

Many people had to emigrate back in the 80s due to unemployment and made it work.

If you're not happy you could try the same.

Just a suggestion.

Very Trump sentiment that.
Maybe pointing out issues need attending and voting for different politicians might be another option or will ye all move to Argentina or the like if FG are ousted?

You grew up in it I assume?
You're metric for attaching blame for everything wrong on the govt is boloxology as is your assumption of how people feel over tragedies.
You can stick your assumption on my feelings anyway where the sun don't shine you nice fella you.
Now back to SF on the SF thread, how many murders and rapes, kidnapping and dissapearence as well as kneecap pings and other types of torture would you say they have excused in their time.
Your little faux outrage outburst doesn't fool me one bit.

Remember Jonathan Corrie?

He sold 2 houses his family bought him and ended up on the streets.

His family gave up on him.

Then he died.

I suppose you blame Leo Varadkar for his death yeah?

A) FF and the Greens are also in government now, with a FF TD having the housing portfolio.
SF are in government in the North where homelessness is much worse than in the ROI, in fact NI account for 1/4 of the UK's homelessness.

SF should not be throwing stones about homelessness when under their watch they have some of the worst homelessness in Europe.
