3. And some, like me, don't
to assume that everybody in this forum supports SF is a little exclusionary. So, you can understand why I object to the call to arms.

6. thanks for this
People need to learn some history of why the IRA and Sinn Fein exist. They don't exist without the British Occupation.

7. True.
But that doesn't give them carte blanche to do whatever they want now. Although I object to the calling out of the IRA as being responsible for the big bank heist, it was more than likely them. And there's no excuse for it.

9. And your evidence for this is...
just asking. Often our allegiances cloud our judgement.

10. WHat is your evidence that it was the 'RA?
Despite the fact that they "have the capacity"?

12. Like I said earlier,
it is wrong for officials to blame the IRA for the heist when no evidence has been produced. But, when Gerry Adams says "I may be wrong" about the IRA not being involved, it makes you scratch your head, no?

13. No
Even if he thought it was the 'RA he would deny it. Just being honest. I think he just had a brain fart is all.
