Sinn Fein vs Sieg Heil - Spot the Difference

[pintsofguinness]

What I mean pints is t is just usually people who eulogise most about fighting the invaders really mean someone other than themselves do it... you mean you are on for fighting the invaders or think others should do it? 

I think people have the right to do it.  Whether they do or not is up to themselves, I wouldnt condem anyone who does.

Declared war...shoot every German f**ker you see.

Shoot any enemy serviceman on the battlefield who isn't wounded, surrendering or a medic. In a nutshell, that's allowed under international law in a declared war. Pretty obvious to 99% of people out there...

Constable Murphy - "Hold the phone boys, is this a declared war?"

Another stupid comment. Constable Murphy was a policeman, not a serviceman, his killers were not in the armed forces of any sovereign state, and they were neither uniformed nor openly bearing arms.

"I was shot dead but in fairness I was fair game"

"I was shot dead but the b**tards weren't even wearing a uniform, cnuts".

I'm struggling to see what your point is. Are you saying there isn't any such thing was international law on war, such as the Geneva Conventions?

And servicemen in wars, like the First and Second World Wars, have generally been pretty clear that they were "fair game" for their enemy counterparts, and vice versa.

That's what's meant by "keep telling yourself that".

no it's not - I think it's funny that you and other unionists cling to anything to try and paint a picture of nationalists/republicans being the bad ones, the big bad terrorists who arent stupid enough to openly bare arms and wear a uniform, do you want them to paint a target on their back as well?  you never hear of guerilla warfare?

You might equate "nationalists" with "the IRA" but I do not, so cut out the pretence that I am "painting a picture of nationalists" being anything.

I've heard of guerilla warfare, yes (and there are interntional conventions relating to that too - e.g. carrying arms openly). Have you ever heard of terrorism?

yeah its what the big bad IRA done on the innocent peace loving protestants

Yes.

Then you live in a wierd fantasy world, because international law on war, including the Geneva Convention, does exist.

And servicemen in wars, like the First and Second World Wars, have generally been pretty clear that they were "fair game" for their enemy counterparts, and vice versa.

Yes.

If you agree with this, then what's your point?

Indeed it was.

I don't usually post on topics other than the Cork hurling strike but I was wondering if there is another board mirroring this one where mw's views are predominant.
