Where does Northern Ireland belong?

[Technologic]

Yes but your forgetting what Richie mentioning that the british army has murdered innocent also.

Only in retaliation really... the IRA probably killed more civillians than the UK army.

Northern Ireland isn't part of Britain, it's part of the UK.

Think of how many people from Ireland the British army have killed!



I dont wana arguement but think of how many people where murdered in dublin bk in the day also a little off topicness but then people from N Ireland wanted too march through dublin with the orange flag, there were riots over it because we wouldnt let it happen why do you think we didnt let it happen because thousands of Irish people where killed in dublin over this!

Pfft and the Irish get blammed for the riot!

Well, is should be the choice of the people in northern Ireland, and these killings and stuff will not make the UK surrender to the IRA?

(I think its the IRA who are in ireland that want northern ireland right?)

[-:Undertaker:-]

The Brittish have murdered, plundered, stolen, and raped the good people of Ireland for hundreds of years. Its 2009 and its time the brittish caught on to the notion that they are not welcome and never have been. Scotland won thier freedom but have left ireland to fend for itself and america has done little to help . Why cant Brits just leave ireland alone?? Its the same as the palestinians and the Israelis who will not leave them alone. Are you not ashamed?

I think all this should stop the IRA are not doing the right thing

This is typical socialist nationalism, the British Empire BUILT your countries, sad to say it but we built most of Africa, India & Ireland up from NOTHING.

You will all deny it as usual, but i'm afraid the British Empire didn't just build you up, yes we did invade and take over a lot of places, most of which didn't even have borders/governments (Africa) but we saved the world from the evil that was the Thrid Reich, so instead of living in a pre-British Imperial world right now, you'd be living in a Third Reich World dictatorship.

Ireland was already civilized before the british came though :/
It had it's own government that was ruled from Dublin.
Alot of other men fought in ww2 and died in that war that werent british.

Yes, many did, but many were still living in poverty before the Empire came about and changed the face of the world with the Industrial Revolution. Britain brought wealth to Ireland and other countries. Also yes, thats my point. A United Kingdom, A United Empire helped defeat the Third Reich, and without that Empire it probably would not have been possible.

Just as a matter of interest, Does England learn anything about Irish History?

[-:Undertaker:-]

I think the United Kingdom is taught, and the sylibus was changed this year so I wouldn't know. Even if it is not, remember that the United Kingdom as a whole is taught, and when we talk about WW1/WW2/Empire it includes all of the Empire, especially the United Kingdom.

However Bloody Sunday was a isolated incident, and yes any killing of innocents is awful and tragic. The IRA on the other hand has not only attacked Northern Ireland, but also cities in England like my own city of Liverpool. The IRA goes out of its way to kill innocent people using terrorist methods.
