The IRA needs to stop being an unserious terrorist organisation. What does putting bombs in bins accomplish? Serialsly.

Again religion splits a nation. This all comes down to the Catholic Irish vs. the protestant Irish, and the IRA are a bunch of retards who want to unite them via violence. IRA is a bunch of racists anyways.

And that split was caused by a fat man going too far to get a divorce, because the Pope wouldn't let him. Isn't history funny?

We have no idea what happened. It doesn't matter if it's war, killing someone should never be a bragging right.

They're both stupid fucks for fighting over religion, especially when both sides are already Christian.
We will never run out of excuses to kill each other.

Maritime combat operations are not murder, neither is self defense, although some stupid gay countries like japan and now the UK believe so.
Everyone should just shut the fuck up and stop fighting over some chubby bastard from hundreds of years ago who wanted some other whore as a wife and get together for a drink at the god damn pub.
Fuck religion.

No, but I do support the UDA, UVF and any loyalist paramilitary which exists to protect the loyalist community in Ulster and has helped to end the conflict. I understand that there are a lot of Americans (specifically those which claim to have descended from Irish families, which equates to three quarters of the US population), who find the idea of "fighting evil British oppressors" and all that shit to be virtuous and just. These people have not had to live in fear for decades, and really do not understand what the situation is and has been. It's all ignorant nonsense.Idiots ITT can run around calling British soldiers "murderers" and shit, which I find laughable looking at the thousands of unnecessary civilian casualties the USA has caused in the past few years (and is still causing as we speak).

That's not a spook, it's a member of the UVF. They were a loyalist paramilitary who fought republican paramilitaries such as the IRA during the troubles.

They didn't fight because of religion, they fought because of their beliefs. It was a coincidence that both sides followed different religions.

doubt it. we've been fighting since forever. it's not like we'd find any less reason to fight if we suddenly all became atheists.

What part don't you understand? Princes needed land and Europe was full. They expanded into the traditional land of the Roman Empire, whom Christendom (i.e. European civilization) considered itself an heir to.

It is a nationalistic conflict, not a religious one.
My country does not have a state religion. The concepts of the "Old World" seem very strange to us.

Nobody in their right mind supports the IRA. Only people like Depressionman, who purposefully choose the unpopular side of an argument and then try to defend it by using shitty logic and circular arguments.
