This is a spin off from the recent thread below - Zechariah_8_13 suggested it was posted now on F.R. even though it is 'old' news.

Only too pleased to be able to do so. I do not think this has been posted before ( but I stand ready to be corrected).

The IRA has long been involved in helping PLO bombers and also in the Philippines working with the Abu Sayef terrorists in that area.

Roadside bombs used to kill British troops in Iraq are thought to have been created with the help of Irish bombers.

The bombs don't ask whether a potential victim is British before going boom; this stuff has to be hurting America even more than Britain. What beef does the IRA have with America? Why do they want to tempt the eagle's reprisal?

Continuity IRA terrorists have visited Iran and Syria to sell bomb-making secrets to Hezbollah and Al Qaeda.

Roadside bombs used to kill British troops in Iraq are thought to have been created with the help of Irish bombers.

British students are being recruited for Iran-backed terror camps in South Africa.

Renegade former British special forces' soldiers are being lured by Islamic terror groups to pass on their secrets at terror training camps.

People do not do suicide bombings and other terrorist things for any sort of a cause; they do them because they're ****ed-up people. This is not surprising, given that realization.

Amazing and very disturbing. That's called sharpening the axe for the executioner.

Wonder which catherdrals the IRA wants converted to mosques first in Ireland and which stadiums reconfirgured for better viewin of the stoning women?

Oh and forget the beer, whiskey and pubs guys. Gone, done nada.

The Islamic octopus, and it's tentacles extend everywhere. Islamics always coming up with new things that go boom and kill infidels via stealth. Islam has it's own fixed assets and once they (Mecca etc.) are nuked there will be no more Islam except for a few stragglers on the run. Then Iran changes Zoroastrian Persia and Arabians revert from Islamic paganism to a more benign desert paganism

If American, these guys should be hunted down and shot on sight, world wide. See how they like their own buds tracking them down to Costa Rica, Brazil or where ever they try to hide. Executive order, extreme prejudice. Guys would line up to off them.

I could very well be wrong, but I always thought the IRA were kinda lackluster. I know Irish nationalist in the early 20th century were pretty strong, but when I think of the IRA, I think of a group more violent than ETA, but only slightly more successful. I know Chechens are supposed to be working with our enemies. That seems more scary than IRA folk. Of course, the disparity in casualties inflicted could be due to the superior security apparatus of the British compared to the Russians.

This O'Hallaran hopes all members of the IRA rot in hell. [Actually, I extend this wish to include all terrorists everywhere.]

special forces' soldiers-turned-mercenaries from Britain and the US who are willing to sell their deadly expertise to the highest bidder

...uh, if that were true, they'd be after bin laden... the bid, I believe, is $50 million... nope, I think they're just a-holes and like to do what a-holes do...

Why are they surprised by this? The IRA - Islamic terrorist alliance has been operating for years.
