Further sanctions the US government could use against Sinn Féin include denying visas to the party's leaders - some of whom plan to attend a White House reception marking St Patrick's day next month - although government officials on both sides of the Atlantic fear that over-tough action risks undermining the peace process and would end any hopes of the IRA decommissioning its weapons

Its a terrorist group!!!!

Over-tough not to invite them to the White House??? Its a terrorist group!!!

I've lived for so long with the threat of bombs and bomb alerts in London. I've lived with reading the headlines about people being killed at the Baltic Exchange and other IRA bomb sites. This is justice - I hope Sinn Fein / IRA are strangled to death by the world's revulsion.
