Meanwhile, in Ireland

There appear still to be real barbarians in the shape of the IRA and their less than amusing Sooty imitation, Sinn Fein. Quite apart from the original terrible murder the subsequent intimidation of witnesses, the absurd Martin McGuiness urging witnesses not to co-operate with the police but to go to the police ombudsman, the craven sophistry of Gerry Adams (gasp) quite how they could ever imagine that offering to shoot McCartney's murderers would ameliorate the situation is completely beyond me.

The vast majority of the Irish want to see the back of the IRA and their like, all of whom are violent gangsters that try (ineffectively, lately) to hide behind a veneer of religous conviction and political will. Before power-sharing and real democracy is restored these dispicable terrorists must be caught and brought to justice. They pose more of a danger than Al-Quaida ever will.

Love your Terrorists

I feel quite an affection for the IRA, times have moved on and left them behind, trying to cope in a new world where they just don't fit in. And they want to, bless them, they are trying to help, they are trying to be liked. It's just they really can't quite grasp that the whole urban warfare, shooting people thing, well, it's just not that popular anymore. They do, after all, like everyone else i think, just want to be loved.
