    I found Sean O'Callaghans' analysis very human.
    The paradox is always balanced upon the outrages committed by the British and their presumed right to occupy any country they fancy and ultimately are surprised if those people fight back.

      O'Callaghan says in his book that the real architects of the Mountbatten assassination were Brian Keenan & Ivor Bell. A 'Marxist' element in the Provisionals in collusion with East German & Soviet military intelligence. A payment to the organisation of £2m was payed from Syria via the P.L.O. ignoring General order # 8, must've come from the top.

    In principle I have no problem with armed resistance, but there are rules. Using remotely detonated bombs to intentionally target and cause injury to civilians is a war crime. To detonate a bomb knowingly to kill children is simply murder. In my mind, the Para incident is acceptable armed struggle (they are combatants in a declared operational area), but the boat incident is not (all unarmed civilians in a neutral country).

    Looking at the largely Republican comments to this British made documentary, I would remind viewers, especially Americans and others, that Northern Ireland`s citizens very largely wished to remain part of Great Britain. Under such circumstances the British State had every right to fight the IRA terrorists.

      It is no longer the case that the majority of residents of Northern Ireland want to identify with Great Britain. Catholics now outnumber Protestants and those who identify themselves as Irish.

      I can't establish why my ancestors left Ireland in the 17th Century. They went to Wales, then Southern England. We don't have any Irish culture left in our family and until a cousin did the family tree no-one knew. Nonetheless everyone in my social circle was disgusted by 'our' British behaviour towards Catholic communities. Once the troubles started to get TV and radio coverage all we heard was about IRA terrorism. Media was heavily controlled and bombings and operations got wall to wall coverage. Seemed to us that after Brighton, Thatcher lost the plot.

      I would like to remind those same people that the British, not the Irish, devised the division of Ireland which was originally meant by them to be 2 mainly unionist counties. But the unionists examined the population numbers and decided they could still take in up to 4 other, mainly nationalist Irish counties, and control 6 counties altogether.
      So, that's what the British insisted on in exchange for a limited form of Irish independence on the rest of the island.
