    The flip side...

    The difference is, one side created the other. We wouldn't have had a 30 year war in North, if we didn't have a discriminatory Orange statelet that oppressed and treated the nationalist community like dirt for decades. We wouldn't be on the verge of a third intifada, if we didn't have war mongering Zionist loons like Netanyahu, running the Israeli government and shredding any chance of peace since the early Nineties. If there's one thing history has shown us and that is, armed resistance and violence is always an inevitable and very unfortunate consequence of brutal oppression. Whether it be The B Specials & RUC and their pogroms in the North, or the savagery of IDF in the Occupied Territories. The response is invariable always the same the world over.

    For further information read http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ireland-Palestine-Question-1948-2004-Shatter/dp/0716533499

    (Note it is not written by Alan Shatter only the forward is! :D)

    It charts the evolution of Ireland's attitude towards Israel and Palestine, trying to toe the line and getting caught in the middle!

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    It was amazing meandering through the Falls Road and Shankill Road and hearing the stories from someone who grew up in the troubles. I couldn't believe the height of the peace wall. I'd highly recommend it for sure.

    So after 30 years of murder (mostly carried out by the IRA btw) in the modern troubles you couldn't believe the height of the peace wall. Lol.

    republicans and hamas have nothing in common with isis. infact republicans and hamas don't have anything in common apart from fighting terrorist states willing to butcher and slaughter at every opportunity, and destroy every opportunity for a peaceful solution to the original issue

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    loyalists and BA butchers killed more people then the IRA. they also had a way way higher kill of civilians which were deliberate, unlike the IRA'S mostly accidental killings

    Lol. I'm sure Sands was just thinking on the hunger strike ..... You know if only I go with this charade, drunken Irish republicans in Iran can sit and have a free burger and a taxi ride home all by saying "babiizzzz sanzzzzxxx".

    The vast majority of the PIRA's killings were of BA/UDR/RUC scum. The vast majority of the BA/UDR/RUC and their proxies 'loyalists' victims were innocent Catholic civilians. Don't you just hate it when the statistics cut through bullshit?

    So the IRA didn't carry out more murders in the modern day troubles then? Is that what you are saying Tom?? Come on now, let the statistics speak for themselves. How many peoples did the IRA kill?? Say against the number killed by the British army? Come on now don't be shy.

    The UDR regiment of the British Army were recruited from the dregs of the 'unionist' community - many of them were illiterate degenerates who formed the B-Special needs. The UDR supplied loyalist murder squads with weapons and murderers. Do you have a problem with facts Tim?

    Btw booby sands a famous hero???????? Come on now. Apart from having a burger bar in bastion of democracy Iran named after him and a few other token gestures. (No doubt some sort of annual banquet (lol) in Irish American heartlands each year) who really cares. Not many nowadays.

    Would you say that the brave IRA men who killed the 2 wee boys outside a McDonald's in Warrington were butchers then Tom? Do you have a problem with facts??? Still waiting on your answer. How many PEOPLE did the BA kill as opposed to your heroes the IRA in the modern Northern Ireland troubles???? More or less?????

    No, I like facts. Your lies will be exposed by facts.

    How many innocent people were killed by the BA/UDR/RUC and their 'loyalist' proxies is it? Far far more than the PIRA killed. I know the statistics.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,020 ✭✭✭BlaasForRafa


    No, I like facts. Your lies will be exposed by facts.

    So two kids weren't murdered in Warrington then? Maybe you'd better contact their parents and inform them of that.

    And while you're at it I suppose a bunch of civilians weren't murdered in Enniskillen in 1987?

    TNot really bizarre when you think about it though. Hard line Republicans, Hamas and the likes of the radical Islamic group ISIS.

    Nodin, as a seasoned 'and self proclaimed' IRA supporter you must come to terms with the "Extreme" flip side!

    I love it when modern day provo supporters love to taint themselves as the 'good' guys while knowingly they supported murder of children and civilians and members of the Irish Army and Gardai.....

    That's because we have to accept that these things happen during times of war...blah blah blah, and that it's better just to forget about the nasty stuff and not ask inconvenient questions for the sake of keeping the peace...blah blah blah

    Gerry is actually one of the good guys it turns out...Or words to that effect.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 607 ✭✭✭sonny.knowles


    You have no credibility. You conveniently forget all the sectarianism, discrimination, imprisonment without trial, and murder that caused the troubles. You're also an apologist for British colonialism and the brutality that accompanied it.

    You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

    Shinnerbots in the house.

    Not only in the house but sitting drunk, Celtic shirt tied around their head, crying as they watch the Wind that shakes the Barley on repeat play. Someone should really throw that half eaten "babby sanddzzz" burger from last night in the bin though.

    "Our revenge will be babby sanddzzz burgers and the expanding waistlines of our children"

    If we only we could grow a lemon that combined that level of anger with natural bitterness.......

    Why is that so hard to believe? My generation and many others came along after the worst of the troubles. We don't hold that bitterness. Have to admit the mural to Steve 'Top Gun' McKeag was disgusting. How would any decent citizen want that in their community? Celebrating the life of a man who killed so many innocents to this day, I could only look on in disgust. How is the North supposed to truly move forward with ****e like that painted on walls? It made me realise some truly don't want to.

    "BA/UDR/RUC scum"

    Yes Nodin, there is some amount of hatred and bitterness going on here..... You thanked the above post. Smacks of selective outrage on your part. Hello Mr Pot, let me introduce you to Mr Kettle.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,796 ✭✭✭Azalea


    Shinnerbots in the house.
    That is the most original intelligent interesting post ever.

    So is this always to be the approach? any time mention of loyalist and security forces atrocities are brought up, LordSutch, Berserker and timthumbni will downplay them and ensure to point out the other side were as bad - or worse, even though the other side aren't being talked about (maybe, if pushed, a token feeble "I've no time for loyalists").
    Ditto in relation to Israeli military atrocities.

    But they didn't post about the other side being as bad in that thread about the IRA army council. :confused:

    Nothing selective about it. If you think the above weren't legitmate targets then god love yer innocence.

    Anything to say on topic or is this just a Sunday Shinner Bash?
