You are either willfully ignorant or deliberately obtuse. Supposedly the British Army was brought in to protect the Catholics from the protestant paramilitaries, yet they immediately sided with the unionists and provided them with military weapons and intelligence services. The whole British military sided with the unionists thugs and that was the plan from the beginning.
And I dont believe my assertion was that Catholics in the Republic only treated protestants with decency because they were a minority. My contention is that very small minorities are not seen as a threat, and therefore are ignored.
Your justification is pointless. The protestants in the Republic were treated with decency while the Catholics in the north have always been treated poorly by the British and that is because of how they viewed each other.
The British have always had a superiority complex. Funny coming from a country that practically invented flamboyant homosexuality so much so that it is referred to as the English Disease.
If you're going to believe that the British Government had a deliberate policy like that then this discussion is pointless. There is nothing I can say that will change your mind. All I will say is that when I postulated to an ex-soldier friend of mine that the British Army would be more sympathetic to the Unionists, he said that the Unionists did go through phases when they were very pro-army, but then something would happen, the army would arrest some protestant paramilitaries or something, and it would be back to being insulted and having things thrown at them. He then said something very profound that I have always remembered. "They're not what I would call loyalists". Now that came from a guy who was a True Brit, a Colonel of twenty years service.
As for this nonsense about "superiority complex" - I dont know what you mean by that. You mean being patriotic? Being proud of your own culture and nation? Isn't that a good thing? Anyway, its better than the martyr complex so often exhibited by our Celtic neighbours - "Self love is not so vile a sin as self-loathing" (Shakespeare)
