Is it a bit like the People's Front of Judea / Judean People's Front?

The BBC has a good article describing when they were all formed.

Pretty much apart from the violence being tragically real.

Which is why it was funny when it was written (Monty Python, not the whole Irish thing)

Na, they gave up years ago, taken over by the Provisional IRA. Just to confuse things.

Go on, admit it. You just made that up !

There is however, a Fractional IRA, and it's rumoured that there is a Fictional IRA.

There is even, allegedly, an LIRA, who are the Italian division.

Not very much difference at all, if the past couple of days are anything to go by.

They both split off from the PIRA at different times, for the same reason (wanted to keep on fighting). I think there was a bit in the original IRA constitution that says that any IRA faction that joins in peace talks isn't a legitimate faction any more, which is how these groups claim a bit of legitimacy, but they've got hardly any support.
