Brendy: your views are so one-dimensional. I'm just as Irish and Catholic as you but I believe that simply taking one side all the time and ignoring and propagandizing down the other has absolutely no future. And I didn't call you "bandit", I merely quoted the title of a book for a guy in America.

Jimmy C: Those whirring 3 am helicopters etc, keeping peacable citizens from their sleep will not be found over Kent, wales, etc.

I'm not just anti-IRA but anti- all terrorism. In the Irish context it is so counterproductive and downright impractical. Ask Gerry Adams, that's why he's talking to Trimble, etc. VIOLENCE SOLVES NOTHING AND INDEED ONLY MAKES THINGS WORSE. Cut out the macho posturing and get round the table.
