[QUOTE=âcaoimhaoin, post: 1068781, member: 273â]ah for fuck sake. did it ever occur to you that the damage to the buildings would damage the people.
The barstoolers are losing the plot here. If that stands up then the lads flying into the twin towers surely have the same excuse, they were only trying to hit the buildings.[/QUOTE]
Ridiculous comparison that makes no sense.
Cognitive dissonance of the Ra bar stoolers is fucking frightening

No, you wouldnt plant live ordnance anywhere near them.
Jesus youre thick

Youâre thick.
If people were the target then why issue warnings to evacuate areas where the bombs were planted? A clear avoidance of this question the last time.
The context of each struggle is entirely different, as were the operations carried out and motives behind them.
I would actually, they were brought into areas of Cork to stamp out heroin.
Thats a good sight worse than joyriding. Iâm all for a few scelps, but blowing kneecaps off is outrageously over the top.
You took my quote out of context there

Killed a few too
july 21, 1972
With Belfastâs streets full of afternoon shoppers, the IRA detonated 20 devices in 70 minutes on Bloody Friday, creating mayhem, killing nine, and injuring 130 others. Two devices accounted for all the deaths. A car bomb at Oxford St bus station killed four Ulsterbus employees, while another parked outside a row of shops killed two women and a young schoolboy.
february 4, 1974
Britainâs trains were on strike so a coach was hired to carry servicemen and their families off for a holiday. A 25lb bomb was smuggled on to one coach in luggage. It exploded on the M62 motorway, killing 12, wiping out the entire family of Corporal Clifford Houghton, his wife Linda and sons Lee (5) and Robert (2).[/QUOTE]
Did the Provos deliberately set out to murder children? Bloody Friday was a catastrophe for the IRA.
Standard bomber line when he canât think of anything even more boring to say.

In most cases they were warned, told to stop, told to leave. They were told what would happen if they continues to commit these crimes, they did.
Could be worse though, the Brits put bullets in the back of their heads.
And another fucking thread descends into an IRA debate. Zzzzzz

Why plant bombs to explode during the day when people would be there.
They wanted to cause terror.
If people were killed then it was collateral damage.
Earlier in the campaign there were no warnings.
Canât believe you are arguing this. Cause terror. Provoke response.

'Twas a war not a game of tig.
Even smart bombs kill civilians. Iâm not condoning any civilian deaths in the north by the way but anyone trying to compare the activities of the IRA in the north would really want to educate themselves about whatâs going on in the cause of Islam at the moment.
I might post up a few more of their many, many gory videos and pictures of it helps.
Well it is a terrorist thread to be fair.
The subject matter isnât important. Its generally Kev vs any of Rocko, Sid or Bomber. TUM seems intent on getting involved this time but no one seems to be paying attention to him. I reckon Laz will bow out soon enough too.
of course not palâŚthey were those adult - only bombsâŚhow were the RA to know a bomb would be so indescriminateâŚah bless

To give themselves plausible deniability. If you really dont want to kill civilians you dont plant live bombs, end of. And as for this adequate warning nonsense, was there a RA liaison with the greater manchester police who ran through their response times then had a few bomb drills and noted the times to evacuate? Haha, a bit slow there mrs jones, yknow next time might be a real bomb and youll lose a leg
Correct, the rest was not relevant and it was actually incorrect. No such things as adult only bombs, the Provos war was legitimate, they were never a terrorist organisation.
Good to point that out on the off chance someone misinterpreted the post :rolleyes:

Never said it wasnt. At least the yanks and israelis have the stones to say so fucking what if there was collateral damage rather than trying to weasel out by muttering about telephoned warnings.
