“...sanctity of human life...”

Did this belief of hers in the Sanctity of Human Life also include the US Prisoners in North Vietnam?

No, they didnt.

The IRA was formed in 1916 to fight the British. The only name of a fighting force that fought with the British in WW1 that was co-opted later by terrorists was the 36th Ulster Division, the ‘UVF’, who fifty years later had that name sullied by a Protestant Irish terror/murder gang.

Catholics in Ireland fought as part of the 16th Irish Division. And a great division that was.
