GuestAR - I don't believe that I have. What I have done is counter claims by yourself and Big Mick that lay all fault at the feet of the UK Government.

Den - As far as "Bloody Sunday" goes I'll wait for the report. As far as references to "murder of innocents" and utilisation of phrases such as "It doesn't matter how you package it, murder is murder." Let me answer the question posed in the title of this thread:

"True IRA?? Who are they?"

The "true" IRA are the people who were responsible for the abduction, torture and murder of Mrs Jean McConville, an innocent if ever there was one.

The "true" IRA are the people responsible for terrorising Northern Ireland for 40 years now, primarily targeting innocent civilians, any doubts? Let's talk about "Bloody Friday".

The "true" IRA have had many prefixes "Official", "Provisional", "Real" and "Continuity" all anybody has to realise is that irrespective of name they are all butchers.

Oh a question for GuestAR, Big Mick and you Den:

"Give me one example of one IRA man who has given his life saving the life of an innocent civilian in Northern Ireland"

Note: Bombers getting blown up while assembling their bombs, or who get blown up while transporting their bombs to their targets don't count.
