With that I rest my case. You can't refute a solid fact!

Oh and for the record, my step-father is English. I'm actually of Irish descent, but at least I have the ability to discern a terrorist who should be on a watch list, and somebody who just really cares about their country.

I also have the ability to ignore folks who interject into matters they don't belong.

It's a great skill to have in these days of internet tough guys!

Oh and to answer your question, yes the IRA has executed their own on a number of occasions. I would say that's a terrorist group and not an Army. Lord Mountbatten was a prime example (though he wasn't Irish). HE alone was their target, but because they're an unprofessional rabble, they took out innocents along with him. I don't have respect for people like that, Irish or not!
