Northern Ireland Future
Michael Collins movie - Easter Rising A united Ireland isn't a mystery of philosophy where the 100 year debate has ignored a central issue of self-defence rights.

Military history museum, e.g. Troubles museum in the North?
I'm visiting Belfast for a couple of nights in a few weeks, and he's interested in military history. So are there any good museums, perhaps a museum of the Troubles, in the North?
