ira: irish republican army

a guerrila army situated in ireland, whose operations have been concentrated in the occupied north of ireland and on the foreign british mainland.their main aim is to secure a united ireland which would involve driving out the british forces from the island of ireland. they had the support of many citizens of ireland mostly from the catholic nationalst community.

the organisation follows in the footsteps of a long line of armed revolution in ireland, including a revolution mounted by theobald wolfe tone, the father of republicanism, who himself was a protestant.

during an expansive campaign in the 1970’s, 1980’s and 1990’s the ira was able to secure large quant-ties of weapons from the us, the balkans and libya. they used these weapons to mount the largest bombing campaign ever seen on the british mainland and gain many concessions and drive the british establishment to the bargaining table.
during this time the organisation was able to become the most powerful organisation in ireland, basically destroying all loyalist organisations in the north and killing hundreds of british soldiers. they also managed to kill two intensively trained sas soldiers, a major achievement for a volunteer force.
the ira always has taken a hard line against drugs and has been known to kill dealers and importers. they have never used drugs to increase power or funds, unlike all loyalist groups.

recently, after achieving their utmost with violence, the organisation have decided to follow a strictly political path. support has grown through this initiative and they will achieve a united ireland through this method.

weapons have been decommisioned to secure representation of republicans in the government. despite this, the ira has the support, if ever there was the need for another armed campaign in ireland and could wage war indefinitely.

the ira are heroes

ireland unfree, shall never be at peace- padraig pe-rs-
a paramilitary organization fighting against the english in northern ireland for almost 90 years. it is known as a terrorist organization, but members and supporters think of it as a liberation, freedom fighter organization. it is responsible for the bombings and deaths of many innocent towns and people, mainley the belfast area. many people have harsh thoughts towards the ira because they have killed many people. but remember that as far back as the 1600’s, the english had been treating the irish people like sh-t (oliver cromwell, for example), seeing them as the subhuman race, and over the course of almost 400 years of tyranny and oppresion, killed more irish people than the ira would ever dream of killing english people. so the irish do have a reason to be p-ssed off.
englands been f-ckin’ with us for more than 400 years, and the ira has put its foot down to that
