Considering that the Russian airforce sent missiles down the cell phone signals of several leaders, I'd say just the opposite...give them all cell phones. So what other great conspiracy theories have you got? And by the way, you have yet to prove me wrong that the bombings in England were not the work of the Queen's government as an excuse to steal Irish land. I don't think that there is anything more to the IRA then a political party...all the violence is strictly ethnic cleansing and forced conversion by the British.

As I said, it was a suggestion which was made by a journalist and which I reported, personally I don't believe it.

And by the way, you have yet to prove me wrong that the bombings in England were not the work of the Queen's government as an excuse to steal Irish land.

Unlike for your theory, there is evidence pointing to strange behaviour by the FSB during the Moscow bombings. What could be more inappropriate while a country is suffering a series of terrorist incidents than the secret service of that country planting bombs (even dummy bombs) in residential buildings and not telling the local Police in advance, or immediately after they are discovered, that it is all just an exercise.

If you can find similar evidence regarding IRA bombings in Britain that may have been planted by MI5, then I will be happy to consider you 'conspiracy theory'.

I don't think that there is anything more to the IRA then a political party...all the violence is strictly ethnic cleansing and forced conversion by the British.

Britain should not be in Ireland in my opinion. My Uncle was a soldier and he had friends who served in Northern Ireland and told me about what used to go on there. For example, there was a young British squaddy who was kidnapped while on leave by the IRA and killed. When his body was discovered, it was found that his genitals had been cut off and stuck in his mouth and his head had been bound up in barbed wire. Whether he was shot before or after this was done, no one could say. Thousands more people have lost their lives over the years and what does NI have that's so great anyway? There's no oil, precious minerals etc, all they have is substandard whiskey and Guiness. As far as I'm concerned the Irish can have a united Ireland and get on with it.

England invaded Ireland when an autocrat was in charge and unfortunately has remained there ever since. The reason we are still in Northern Ireland is because the majority of the NI population are loyalists and they always vote to remain in Britain. However, the partition of Ireland by Winston Churchill and lloyd George was a cynical policy because it made the loyalists the majority in the area of British occupation and so the region would always vote to remain British. Progress has been made on a political solution though which hopefully will mean NI will eventually govern itself.
