GT let's not forget the crimes that the Brits have committed in Ireland and it could be argued that the IRAs actions have actually forced dialogue between the opposing sides.

'britain never did "give in" to the IRA'

and the Irish DID give in to the British. Why?

Because they beat the shit out of them until they did.

re The Israeli/Palestinian conflict. The Palestinians never did give in to the Israeli terrorists did they?

Yeah I think most Brits wanted out of NI, after all it wasn't really the Brits fight, just two religous factions wanting to harm eachother. Way I see it is let em go for it. Then when they've ed up their own country let em all go to the States as refugees. Ha ha, after all there is a massive amount of Irish there. Hey I wonder if Osama Bin Laden is feeling like a cornered animal? Maybe the US is hoping that if they beat the shit out of Al qaida they will give in?

WAR - HUH - WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING - SAY IT AGAIN.

What I mean is basically it stemmed from the Catholics and Protestants wanting to kill eachother, and then the Brits chuck their army in there to "keep the peace", shoulda jus let em get on with it. But do correct me if I'm wrong.

the protestants are 'brits' who were shipped
over to disposess the irish of their land mate.
There's a lot more to it than that, but I can't be
arsed.

To be honest, I think the UK govt would love to
get rid of NI - it costs the taxpayer a fortune
and I really can't see spain invading
nowadays. But if you give it back to the Irish,
then the protestants will kick off. catch 22.

The English were in Ireland causing problems well before the reformation and they created the religious problem there also,due to settling hordes of protestants in Ulster(initially thought up by James the 6th/1st).
