I don't know why yis bother responding to Vilham lads, he's clearly hasn't got a notion about either Irish history or an understanding of the "troubles" in its modern context. I'm sure he has little to no fucking understanding that the IRA was formed because Catholics were marching for civil rights - The right not to be 2nd class citizens in their own country, while Paisley was marching round Belfast spreading his hatred and bigotry about the Catholic church & calling out names of Catholic Families so they would be burnt out of their homes, as was happening all across the country like it was "Kristallnacht". Or that the British came in and massacred civil rights marchers in Derry, stood with their backs to the Protestants and opened fire on the Catholics (what protection were Catholics given then?). Next Internment was imposed where Catholics were arrested for little more than being Catholics and were beaten and tortured. So the British State murdered & allowed Loyalists to murder with impunity, and, gave no protection to it's Catholic citizens - he thinks that it was only about a "United Ireland"
