RIRA Checkpoints

[Gaoth Dobhair Abu]

A few dozen "uneducated" hoods with AK47's and at least one RPG!

Also they seem to be gaining more and more support in South Fermanagh and West Tyrone and Derry.

Can only speak for North Armagh, their support is seemingly limited to a few dozen uneducated hoods.

That can be extraoplated across the 6 counties.

Not them, their supporters!

We wer told that the IRA were like this 30 years ago. However it turned out that this wasn't exactly the truth in all cases.

Difference was the nationalist population were severley discriminated against, were under represented in the work force, infrastructure was poor in the West (not much better now!), there was widespread anger in communities.
Now we are approaching parity in employment opportunity, are starting to see a small shift in policing and justice, things are pointedly different.
Most dissidents are hung up on power in their communites a la UDA thugs.

What I have often wondered about these lads, why does it always go wrong? Co. Fermanagh in particular. Loads of devices found. Failed to explode, made a cnut of it etc.

I know. Dozens of attempts, and the vermin haven't managed to blow themselves up even once.

Still, here's hoping:

What's your point?

GAA Discussion - Galbally GAA/Hunger Strike thread.

I can see how the two topics are so closely related  Is EG going off one one again?

Yes but Fearon was involved too.

I think you'll find it was Fearon not me, who introduced Meigh into the debate. Apparently it was something to do with some point he was making about the IFA. In the thread about the Hunger Strike Commemoration hosted by Galbally GAC.

Hard Station was merely pointing out the incompetence of these people eg in Fermanagh, and I was adding that that is nothing new.

Although I understand that in the period after Mr. McManus's demise, the IRA attempted to claim that it was the Brits who had actually planted the bomb in his car.

Now there's an idea...
