Solving the "problem" requires the people who live there, to give up their resentments, their hatreds, their dislikes, and their perceptions that the other side is *evil*.

Not easy to do. It's easier to hate than to love, to resent than to like, and harder to go further than halfway toward the other.

And the Irish are particularly good at stoking the coals of past injustice.

Will things change? Not in this generation. Maybe the next, if the young get sick enough of their elders' antics.
