Ill ask the question.

Did the IRA have legitimate reason to bomb England?

Silly question.

All terrorists think their aims are justified.

In regards to the IRA read up on Irish and also Scottish history it's not hard to find sources of information on the web.

Give me your reasoning

I don't need to.

You can find out these things for yourself.

Plus it's dragging up tulip memories of getting on well with two people and them getting on well with each other but being from different sides of the divide they knew while they could go out drinking, play football etc with each other in England even though they lived 3 miles from each other In NI they couldn't meet up there.

Depends who you're asking. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

I used to lived in the most republican area of the north of Ireland.

I found your comment "In regards to the IRA read up on Irish and also Scottish history it's not hard to find sources of information on the web." humorous to say the least.

The IRA only let the British into the area I lived in after the cease fire. then that was the place the cease fire was broken when they shot 2 police in the head.

Now that is my history, let's get down to the politics...

Catholics were given substantially less voting rights than protestants from the constitution. When they had a rights march in Derry the paras shot 14 people dead, unarmed civilians, they then placed explosives in their personage as to excuse their actions.

One thing I am really proud of seeing Cameron doing is making a full apology for it.

THe IRA got them back at warrentpoint and they made it known that it was revenge.

My point is that if you treat people like tulip they will come back and hit you.

Thatcher actually resolved the Irish problem by the anglo irish agreement. She never gets credit for that.

The people currently trying to blow us up haven't been treated like tulip.

[stek]

Wat was the point of endless troubles and blowing people up when as we are now, we are all largely borderless and EU and one big Country now?
