A few weeks ago we had the Irish lecture to us about making peace; about how they gave up violence and how happy everyone and his neighbor's wife had been ever since then.
But now, it all seems to be turning out to be a bunch of pure, undiluted bull shit. The Irish apparently are not happy with the way things have turned out to be and there are whisperings in the defence world about a potential return to violence.
Oh well, old habits die hard, and looks like the Brits are going to regret agreeing to peace when all the terrorists needed was a reprieve to re-group, re-arm and start all over again.
Here's what the respected strategypage.com has to say about the return of the IRA in it's July 29, 2008 publication;
"...British counter-terrorism officials believe that Irish terrorists (splinter groups of the IRA, or Irish Republican Army) in Northern Ireland are currently more of a terrorist threat than Islamic radicals. The Irish terror groups are planning violence in an effort to disrupt the peace deal that was worked out in Northern Ireland, between the Catholic and Protestant communities. British intelligence believes that about 80 Irish terrorists are planning attacks..."
Some people never learn.
