Referring to the IRA as ‘boy scouts’ (in comparison to....) is utterly offensive. Offensive to anyone who has ever suffered from them, frankly anyone who simply lived through, even anyone anywhere who opposes terrorism.
Do you understand how offensive your remarks are?. Do you care?.

Irrelevant. The truth is often offensive. Can you back up your earlier claim or not?
“Offensive to anyone who has ever suffered from them, frankly anyone who simply lived through, even anyone anywhere who opposes terrorism.”
I don’t care if the truth is offensive to anyone. This just seems like your latest tactic to avoid backing up your claim. If you can’t back it up, why would you make it?
“Do you understand how offensive your remarks are?. Do you care?.”
No. I do not care in the least if my truthful comments are offensive to anyone. Anyone offended can feel free to email me and tell me they are offended. I will simply respond that offending them was not my intention, but I won’t lose any sleep over someone being offended by the truth.
Can you back up your claims or not? Stop making excuses. Stop avoiding it. Just back up what you calimed. For someone as skilled in history as you claim to be it should be child’s play.
