Hi LadyT
I dont understand.
When peace talks began, a group came out called "The Real IRA"
The article in your source seems to keep mentioning the term "The New IRA"
I may have missed the news a little but im not familiar with the latter term
I will do some search just in case i sound ignorant, stupid or both
cheers
dave

Hmm, I smell some bias in your post..
The only legitimate Government of anywhere, much less Eire or Northern Ireland, is one elected by the people. As almost a century has passed since the events you have described, along with a multitude of elections, it is meaningless and ludicrous to suggest that a handful of crazy Irish criminals is the only legitimate Government. They don't govern anything and their numbers are so few that Blue Square Bet League teams can boast greater support...

Well, at least I had the cognitive ability to be able to reason why....
Originally posted by stumasonWhat makes you think that these terrorists/criminals are the legitimate anything, much less Government? The only thing that springs to mind is you're a sympathiser

That seems like a reasonable conclusion.

Then we're done here. I won't talk to someone who sympathises with callous, child murdering arseholes.

But now all we have is a bunch of cowboys running around with guns taking the law into their own hands, putting peoples lives in danger. No sane person wants it here anymore. The support for these splinter groups has dwindled. Time for us to move on.
