"Jim, the IRA was fighting for a united Ireland, not a war against Protestantism."
Same thing
Protestantism enforced laws excluding Catholics from having any influence in Northern Ireland theirs was a holy war
It was no different in any way to what is now happening in Muslim countries, or in Israel, for that matter, those in charge are using religion to gain and hold office.
In both cases, it is power that is the driving force, not religion.
The Zealots, in both cases, may take their religion to extremes, but in the end, it is wealth and influence which is the driving force.
Your fanatical hatred of Muslims is beyond belief
