“Is there still animosity between the different factions on the Isles?”

Does the sun still rise in the east every day?

Interestingly, if you go on some of the Irish newspaper blogs you will read an unbelievable amount of hatred towards America. They have convinced themselves that we were responsible for the IRA violence of the 60s and 70s - mostly because of people like Ted Kennedy. When Americans point out that it was a very small percentage of Americans who donated to NORAID, they refuse to listen to reason. Some even think that the majority of Americans are of Irish/English descent!
