Very nice memorial. Celtic art is so cool.
IRA is fighting for it's countries independence and the organisation is not based around killing innocents. I think you mean the Provoisional IRA which split from the IRA...those guys concentrate more on the violence factor.
One thing I don't get about the loyalists is how come they feel they owe no loyalty to the country that has been their home for 400 years(in some families cases anyway). Anyway 1/3 of the population in the North is Catholic (nationalists) and in time that population will steadily grow until they outnumber the loyalists and a referendum will succeed.
My family is Irish and my Dad is an Irish citizen. I fully support the idea of a united, independent Ireland. I've also visited Ireland and it's such a nice country.
I'm also a ravid Australian Republican. Once the 1950s population fucks off and dies in Australia the next generation will most certainly vote for independence.
