How many IRA bombing has there been since Sept. 11, 2001?
(Serious question...I do not know)

None. Plenty of punishment shootings though.

Well of course the PIRA is "unsavory" ... it's mostly Marxist!

I think that the last major terrorist attack committed by any part of the Republican movement was the blasts at Omagh, which killed upwards of twenty civilians.

The last person specifically targeted for assassination-to the best of my recollection-was a notorious criminal, Martin Cahill.

But you are correct, in the sense that the September 11th massacres had a lot to with Sinn Fein's ultimate acceptance that they had to decommission their arms and give up the storage depots, or face the universal scorn of the international community
