Gerry Adams is a murderer - I speak as an Irish Republican and a Catholic when I say that and I know a fuck load more about it than you do. One of the things that kept the rape of my country going for as long as it did and as violently as it did was fucking Noraid and the millions of dollars that ignorant assholes with no understanding of the situation were willing to pump into the country to keep the violence going.

On the other hand, two people who took the time to educate themselves about the situation and apply themselves to a peaceful solution were Bill Clinton and Senator George Mitchell, and to them I am extremely grateful.

That certainly USED to be the case. And of course the North is still not without its problems. But the sanctioned institutional discrimination and human rights abuses are a thing of the past. That doesn't completely stop individuals from being prejudiced but we are all a long way down the right road.

I would be very grateful if you would accept that your knowledge of the Irish issue is limited and shallow and stop using it to argue your point. All you are doing is handing dong20 amunition - and trust me, he doesn't need your help.

And while we're at it - do you think you could see your way clear to not calling Myanmar Bruma? If you have to use the outdated colonial name for Myanmar could you at least get it right; it's Burma.
