Keith's other argument has been that the teaching of Irish history has led the Irish people to hate Britain

Nope that was your take on what has been said. Certainly it probably contributed to causing some Irish people to hate Britain enough to plant bombs that killed innocent Irish and British civilians - or are you going to try and tell us that that never happened - just like you tried to tell us that there were no cross border campaigns?

Tell us all what you thought was going through the minds of those who planted the Omagh Bomb - a free united Ireland? - unfortunately the cost the "men of the gun" demand comes at far too high a price. But I forgot Jim you are all for coercing people by force of arms.

I have no intention of reopening The Famine farce again with you

Care to explain then why you continually make reference to it and try to drift the thread? There is a very good reason that you don't want to open a Famine thread of your own - your ignorance and lack of knowledge there would be demonstrated as clearly as it has been here and on numerous WWI threads.

As for facts and statistics and detail nobody, not even you, has to-date countered them or corrected them. Wonder why not? I mean if they were just "invented" proving them false would be easy wouldn't you think?
