Not just irish americans but anybody who does not live in ireland who claims to support the IRA.
For along time now ive seen so called irish americans on the forums who have irish republican slogans in the avatars/sig"s.
From IRA slogans like bobby sands and even republican gunmen. Most of these people have never even been in ireland, but because their great great grandfather or whatever was from ireland they think they are irish and have a right to support republican terrorism.
Yes they have irish blood in them, be proud of that. But dont claim to know the 30 years of war we have lived through because you read books on it.
The outside world seem to think the IRA are heroes and are fighting to protect people,, bullshit they are nothing more than murderers who have killed innocent men/women and children.
Through bombs and shootings.
Ive had people in my family and in friends family killed by this. Its not something which should be glorified. The people of belfast want to live in peace and thankfully we have for near 10 years now.
Republicans were not victims,, we were all victims in a dirty little war.
I just got pissed off reading a stupid IRA forum inwhich people who are not even from here want to see the return to war. They have not lived through that and its so ignorant to people from ireland who have lost friends and family during the war here.
I suppose this is more a rant of mine lol. But id love to debate with people from america or whatever on why they think they can support terrorism when they dont live here nor have experienced it in their life.
