...please don't let Ireland rewind 20 years. This has to stop now.

I really, really hope this is just a "flash in the pan".

Really bad news otherwise.

Sorry if thats the case....just watching the news and logged on here, just wanted to say something.

Now you've made this post it WILL stop.

Ucof · 14 Mar 2009 at 23:05

Yeah.
Its ridiculous.

All the people throwing stuff seem to be chav kids who weren't even alive when the worst of the violence was happening originally

I really hope this stops too.

Don't listen to the GD pricks....

It is just that, it’s just an aberration, some very sad people trying to stop the un-changeable, peace has and will prevail.

Quite coincidental for me that i'd just finished reading Andy McNabs 'Brute Force' before this happened :-S

Sigh, any more of this and they will get exactly what they've been campaigning to not have any more ... British troops on the streets.

I say we just send in the SAS to assassinate all the IRA

That's the thing though, there is no IRA, this is just some chavs causing trouble.

The IRA that killed the soldiers, whatever they call themselves now? Continuous or smth...

Though killing all the chavs (in the whole of the UK please) is also a step forward.

Great idea. That definitely won't cause IRA recruitment numbers to sky rocket.

Would be worse than Gitmo. At least they didn't actually execute all the supposed terrorists.

If they are all dead who is there to recruit people?

It wasn't the IRA who killed the soldiers. As I've already said, the IRA no longer exists

It was somesort of breakaway group I think?

Yep because the SAS are so good they will definitely kill them all.

rypt · 14 Mar 2009 at 23:48

The Continuity IRA, a republican splinter group that does not accept the Good Friday Agreement

They have IRA in the title so ...
besides all the previous IRAs have been breakaways (ie Real IRA and Provisional IRA)

SAS are still the world's best special forces and still routinely train the "best of the best" American special forces
