NO,NO,NO. OK, let me put it clearer, I'm a brit soldier whos served about 3yrs - out of 15yrs service - against the IRA, and all i'm asking is, that once al-quaeda has been totally defeated, do you think that terrorism will be banished, given that al-quaeda is just one group out of about 126 operating around the world

"Thats like saying its ok to commit murder, just don't kill someone in my family and your ok with me...

Sorry, but isn't this the logic that the US has taken for the past 30yrs with regards to the IRA, pressure from the US govt has forced the British forces to take a softly softly approach against the IRA terrorists for as long as I can remember.

I am definately not suggesting it is ok to be a terrorist, don't matter who they want to attack. I've lost friends in NI to terrorists, and as far as I'm concerned, every terrorist from every terror group should be eliminated as soon as possible.

First of all, Northern Ireland is a colony of England, It's (still) part of England so don't slam the Irish. England sucks compared to Ireland. They don't call the English flag the butcher's apron for nothing.

Those English IRA guys are terrorists only because many of their targets are non military. However, the Protestants in Northern (English) Ireland are no better.

I suppose that any organization that desires to take on a FREEDOM loving nation deserves to see just how important FREEDOM is to those of us who stand for it..

FReegards,
