New IRA terror group forms
IrishCentral.com ^ | 12/13/2009 | Patrick Roberts

Posted on 12/13/2009 2:46:48 PM PST by noozguy1

A new dissent Republican group may be forming in Northern Ireland. The organization would include dissidents that have defected from the Continuity IRA and the Real IRA.

The group will not have a name, with the deliberate aim of confusing members of the security forces.

insurgents
LOL

yea right.

They do it for money and power and if anyone thinks other wise then they are very naive.
They use the poorer not so educated folk to get backing and make them think they are some kind of an army.

It was sad to see that some in MA had thought of them as some kind of freedom fighters.

Yep. Some of them were priests and nuns.

When the Pope sent Bobby Sands a rosary, I was very close to leaving the Church forever.

Remember -- the Pope forgave the man who attempted to assassinate him. Sending Bobby Sands a Rosary was a good thing for Sands. Hopefully he used it before he died....

I worked at a business on the corner of Dot Ave and Old Colony Ave. Right in the projects. It was like being on another planet.

when they were killed by these cowards I think it was either 92 or 91 in a place called Newry near the border.

It's one thing for an individual to forgive a man who tried to kill him. It's quite another for a leader to give comfort to a scumbag who killed or attempted to kill hundreds of innocent civilians.

It is the equivalent of Ronald Reagan forgiving John Hinckley, then offering support to Bobby Sands.

Agreed

most Irish hate the ira but for some reason there are a few misguided Americans who think of them as hero’s and that they are liked.

I rememebr meeting two guys from N Ireland and one was catholic and one prod.
We all hung out together and one day this American could not understand why we all hung out.
He was the kind of guy who drank Guiness because he though of himself as Irish(I’m sure you know the kind)

The Catholic guy told me that the reason he left over there was because he wanted to get away from that kind of bigotry and ignorance

I think some forget how the Kennedys too were very close to this kind of terrorist scum.

They always met gerry adams and Martin McGuiness, they helped to get them two visa’s and complained when Bush clamped down on their funding from here.

You need a flow chart or a family tree to keep track of the IRA groups, I swear.

I remember. The Boston media treated Gerry Adams like a legitimate head of state.

they did
he had a meeting at Fanuiel hall(sp) and I went to listen to his crap and OMG.
I left after 10 mins sickened by his crap.

He was surrounded by his ira thugs and terrorists and they all played the victim card very well.

It’s like Beck has said, while everyone is watching one hand the other is doing something you are not supposed to see.

Here he was playing the poor soul while taking in money to buy bombs from the middle east and Libya along with guns to keep power and their drug trade

They use to go around the bars on a fri and sat night and collect money for the PLO and IRA,always struck me as kinda weird.
Yeah i know the kind moved to London for a few years and had many prod friends it was not a issue,could not do that in Eire,it would get you beaten up for consorting with the enemy.
My mothers side of the family love to burn the union-jack outside the British embassy,father told me son stay away from that side of the family,13 boys,6 girls on my mums side they are a huge clan in Dublin now, prolly a couple of hundreds now...

That is why i am here!

Evil begets evil. Northern Ireland was formed in 1922 for the sole purpose of the domination of the Protestant religion in that region. It was an evil society. I do not condone any killing of innocents but it always intrigues me that people are blind to the oppression that Catholics suffered under this Northern Irish rule. Unfortunately, when people are desparate they will seek desparate means. Do some research as the IRA are not the only villains in this tradegy. The RUC, British Army, UVF, UDA, etc., killed innocent people and committed atrocities. Look up Bloody Sunday, the Dublin and Monoghan bombings, internment, etc. Until we can acknowlegde the evil from both sides, nothing will change.

You sound the same as a Muslim apologist.
