    Great figures, where did get them? The Department of Wishful Thinking ?

    Previous polls suggest that somewhere between 25-30% of Catholics would vote to remain in the Union as opposed to rule from Dublin.

    This is why SF have not pushed on for a United Ireland border poll although they are absolutely entitled to - they fear one bad vote could put the argument to bed for 25 years.

    Taliban for me - no surrender to the US and the UK or the Soviets for that matter.

    Or womens rights, science or the idea of sexual equality.



    I don't even want to think about who would 'win' (:rolleyes:) between the two, but at their height the IRA were incredibly capable with regard military assaults. I don't actually think the God Is Great Brigade could pull off something like Warrenpoint. They might kill more , true, but I suppose that is the advantage of being in a car thats about to blow up and not across the river with a few armalites.
