>>
>>68618274
they fought for a republic based of unity, unity of religion etc etc. so virtually the opposite of Isis.
>>
>>68618372
>based of unity
>unity of religion
literary the exact same thing what ISIS claims to be doing.
>>
>>68618457
I think the main difference between ISIS and the IRA is that ISIS wants a worldwide caliphate while the IRA wants/wanted only Ireland
>>
They weren't as indiscriminate and merciless but they were still stupid and, unarguably, evil. Contrary to the beliefs of Irish-Americans and Irish republicans, the IRA murdered many unarmed and innocent people for simply being; A) protestant or B) unionist. They would often kill police officers while they were off duty. My grandfather (former RUC) once told me of a time a colleague of his was dropping his daughter off to school, and his car blew up, killing both.

In short, the IRA aren't "muh freedom fighterz" as many would believe, but are in fact undemocratic morons with weapons.

Loyalist paramilitaries are just as shitty too.
>>

When it came to bombs, the IRA were at least capable of phoning local police to tell them the location of a bomb as to limit civilian casualties and cause police ones instead.

However this didn't always work out, an example being the Omagh bombing.

Take the "limit civilian casualties" with a grain of salt. I believe they didn't give a shit about such casualties, but said they did in order to maintain decent publicity so that Gadaffi and braindead Irish-Americans could continue to fund them without feeling bad.

Gaddafi funded the IRA? really? how did the british not fuck him up for that?
>>
>>68618274
It started as a legitimate open war. Then after the treaty the factions split. Most of the stuff you hear about is from the "troubles" in Northern Ireland from post ww2 till the early to mid 80's. The bombings and shit. Unlike Isis they were trying to ratify their own country but the majority of the people in the north wanted to stay part of the U.K. It became a shit show on both ends then we got the cease fires. Every now and hen there's something but for the most part it's done.
>>
>>68619048
>Gadaffi
>caring about civilian casualties

He would have funded them anyways just because they were a thorn in the UK's side.
>>
>>68618867
Civilian attacks without casualties achieved two goals.
1) It got civilians to put pressure on the government to make a deal and negotiate peace.
2) It ensured less problems in negotiations later as the IRA had less blood on their hands than they could have had otherwise. Meant that there was no "Families of the slain" groups with hundreds of members fighting against peace and that releasing IRA members would be politically easy compared to otherwise.

The IRA knew their endgame was peace talks and the bombs were the breadcrumbs to getting the Brits there. They had good lines of communication going as well.

They still killed people but not on the scale they could have.
>>
My parents were living in London during the troubles, and they were scared for their lives. My mum was nearly the victim of a nail bomb placed in a bin. They weren't as bad as IS, only because they didn't want to take over the world. Fuck those potato niggers

Redpills are for faggots.

The IRA were a Marxist terrorist organization funded by the Soviets. They were only popular because the British/Protestants are retarded and kept antagonizing them. At this point it's just about bad blood and organized crime.

Every once in a while they'll accidentally kill a kid and get everyone to come down on them.

wasn't italy a better target for revenge?

Saying one thing and doing another behind closed doors is still a very effective way to get things done.

I will accept the point that they avoided intentional civilian death for the idiots in America though.
>>
>>68619498
Gadaffi was a general shitstain on the world and quite possibly literally insane. He really didn't need a reason.
>>
>>68619498
To stick it to "colonialism" he wanted the French out of North Africa and took it out on the UK because he was retarded.

Hence why a coup was staged and he ended up getting his arse raped with an AK-47 and serrated dagger.

Just like the Bostonians got a taste of medicine during a marathon.

Just like the New Yorkers HQ for NORAID got a taste of its own medicine.

Murdered two children in my hometown, they put two nailbombs in bins in a shopping area. They detonated the first so that everyone ran into the path of the second. I'm not cherrypicking the kid victims, they literally only killed those 2 children ( and mutilated a bunch of others)
Phoned a "warning" to a completely different town.

My parents lived in London during the eighties, and i'm studying in London now. When I say about my concerns about increased police presence ans threat level they just say 'oh it was like that back then'

The IRA did initially bomb civillians; set nail bombs off in department stores, bombed Horse Guard's Parade etc. They eventually moved onto economic targets like banking areas as they thought this had far more impact.

Daesh believes in a global caliphate, but I think they also believe the world is about to end and the final battle will be decided in Damascus. They have far more resources too. I'd say Daesh is FAR scarier

We were doomed to more violence the second the British agreed to the good Friday agreement.

Honestly, if we had listened to Enoch Powell's views on Northern Ireland, there likely wouldn't have been as much republican violence. By telling the republicans that there is a chance of Irish unity, they will fight and kill as much as they have to in order to obtain it. If we had simply said that it was impossible for northern Ireland to sucede, and even impose direct rule from Westminster, they would've stopped and eventually realised that their fight was hopeless.

Go on youtube and watch "IRA Bombers":
https://youtu.be/XNaOyPOWDug

Evil evil marxists, have done things even IS haven't done yet. The IRA would hold peoples familie hostage and force the father to drive a bomb at British soldiers. If he didn't, they'd kill his kids. Then they'd remote detonate him when he got close, forced suicide bomber. They'd strap petrol bombs to the sides of restaurants and then blow burning fuel to incinerate all the diners, the ones that loves had horrific burns.

Evil evil cunts of people, and all the Irish """"""catholics"""""""" loved them, no wonder the evil cunts voted for gay marriage and abortion, rotton people.

One big difference is that the IRA only had about 3.5 million people to recruit from compared ISIS being able to recruit from 1.7 billion people.

No. During the 30 years that the last conflict between the Republicans and the Loyalists lasted the Republicans killed something like 2000 people which racks up to an average of about 60/year. They tried to minimise civilian casualties because their targets were mostly politicians, soldiers, and police officers.

Compare that to Islamist extremists who so far this year have killed some 343 people in terrorist attacks and are actively targeting civilians over military or police targets.

I guess the Brits will have to answer that for you. I doubt it though, they tended to phone in bomb warnings to minimise civilian casualties.

This is all before my time though, so I'm no expert and don't agree with their methods anyway.
>>
>>68620705
Not everyone loved them and commenting on it as if there wasn't atrocities committed by both sides just makes you sound like a bitter protestant. There was a reason why they were doing the things they were doing. It wasn't just because they were bored like you shitpost when you're bored.

The difference between Irish republican paramilitaries and loyalist paramilitaries is that republican civilians in NI actually supported the IRA whereas unionist communities despised the loyalists paramilitaries.

No. Not even remotely comparable. I remember being scared as hell watching the news broadcast of the two plainclothes soldiers being ripped out of the car and beaten to death.

But to put in perspective; The IRA killed about 40-50 civilians from 1990-2000.

The IRA were a nationalist movement first and foremost.

ISIS are a religious movement.

Europe hasn't had religious warfare since the 1600's. It was primarily used as a way of designating sides in political/geographical conflicts.

ISIS wants global Islamic dominance. Not the security of, say, Saudi Arabia.

A much closer Musim equivalent would be the PLO. Maybe a less religious Hezbollah.

Civilians will be killed in armed struggle in close quarters, it's inevitable. Loyalist forces averaged a far higher civilian kill count anyway.

>The IRA killed about 40-50 civilians from 1990-2000.

by far the Provisional IRA murdered way more ethnic Irish than it did brit soldiers or ethnic brits. policing their own people was probably their biggest activity, next to attacking infrastructure.

difference between 'old IRA' and PIRA is the difference between listening to music low and loud. PIRA = same aims, same tactics, with a view to getting same results- the results of the 'old IRA' (removing brits from 26 of 32 counties) is what inspires modern incarnations of IRA, and it always will inspire. for the record the 'old IRA' wasn't popular or arising from widespread support, it was just as much a minority group as the modern day equivalents.

difference between IRA and islamics is that the IRA isn't seeking to convert the globe to its ideology, won't kill you for being a non-believer, and they don't want to take over your country, just the territorial integrity of their own.

don't listen to those saying the matter is closed, its a generational thing and theres a long history of it.

You don't realise that there was absolutely no democratic aim for the IRA. They wanted to create a 32 county state, despite well knowing that the majority of people in northern Ireland wished to remain apartvof the UK. What they did was out of hatred for Britain, not for the interests of the people of Ireland.

There's always one IRA sympathiser in these threads. Makes the rest of the Irish posters look like retards sadly.

no it's just that most people with a rational mind grow out of supporting the IRA, especially if they have any local knowledge, for example dessie ellis is not only the tony soprano of north dublin, but he taught plo members bomb making techniques, who then taugh hamas who then taught al quaida etc. etc. so there's a chance the bombs that went off in paris and belgium and will probably go off in other major european cities can all be traced back in some ways to him

The situation is different. The fact that protestants were artificially inseminated into the area to outnumber and outbreed the native Catholic population, it's quite unique. A more similar scenario is the Palestine/Israel one.

Do I think the native Palestinians are more entitled to the land than the Jews from France, Germany, US etc.? Yes absolutely.

Am I advocating for a genocide/removal of Jews and Protestans? No, they should be allowed stay and practise their culture. But they should be doing that in the knowledge that the land and country is not theirs, and that they should be respectful of natives and their ways. Y'know, not bullishly oppressing them and murdering them.

Unlike a lot of /pol/ I think multiculturalism can be great. But imperialist interference is disgusting.

well both were separatists seeking to reclaim their perceived homelands

but that's the case in two thirds of global conflicts, two groups fighting over political control, separatists stand on ideals to circumvent politics, controlling forces stand on law and order to circumvent politics

differences?

well the IRA would have stayed in Ireland if they had won , ISIS wants whatever they can get

the IRA persecuted many irish as I understand for supporting the other side or being informants etc
but ISIS burned people alive just for being on the other side

I've never heard of the IRA looting or extorting people in ireland on any scale
ISIS has been reported (no neutral sources I've seen let it be said) to be selling women as sex slaves, committing mass extortion, hostage taking for ransoms

the IRA was an entrenched movement with the potential to remain sustainable in governance of areas they held
ISIS by all accounts is like the hoards of ghengis kahn in that they arn't settling areas, they rely on constant outwards movement to remain unified, they arn't committed to developing areas
if they gaines stability over the region they would become exactly the governments they set out to fight

another key difference is that the soldiers of the IRA were irish and were fighting in their own backyards
ISIS forces are global, and mercenaries or fanatics
it's likely they wouldn't be welcome if they tried to settle the areas they liberated even if ISIS it'self was
this is a typical issue for forces like ISIS and we saw it in africa many times, ISIS will be unable to remove the fighters it recruits, but they will be the only way ISIS can exert influence in their territories
basically the fighters will take land, women and anything else they can as payment for their services and will become warlords as soon as it becomes time to split the spoils of war

This surely must be bait.
The IRA originally were a militia group organised to oppose British oppression with the goal of Irish liberation. The original IRA was finished when Ireland became sovereign about 90 years ago. However, due to the fact that 6 counties (all in the north of the country) of our 32 county state opted to remain in the United Kingdom after our independence some republicans felt that the job was not done and continued the guerilla warfare that had liberated us in initially, which we now refer to as "terrorism" today.

It's more complicated than that, the group disbanded for a few years and then resumed activity when it came to light how poorly Catholics up the North were being treated by their police and the state. The IRA was a necessity to protect people in these areas because the police in Northern Ireland literally wouldn't help Catholics (It was a big deal when Catholics were even allowed to join). Their presence threatened protestants made the Ulster Volunteer Force (The protestant militia) more active and the period in our history known as The Troubles kicked off. A protestant would be shot, they'd retaliate and shoot a Catholic. A bomb would go off in Belfast. The UVF would bomb somewhere in the Republic. And so on and so on.

The goal of the 'ra is and always has been a unified 32 county state, equality and freedom for all. While they did some shitty things in the name of freedom, which no Irish person condones, I really fail to see the parallels between them and ISIS.

Only genuine similarity between the two organizations (IS/PIRA) is policing of their own communities- murdering informers, murdering contractors/trustees, criminality/extortion/rackets/prostitution/drugs, intimination, propaganda.

Methodoloy: IS- indiscriminate no warning attacks to maximize civilian death
PIRA - phoned in bomb warnings in vast majority of cases. Indiscriminate attacks happened but viewed as counter productive.
Aims: no comparison. PIRA- nationalist aim as described in 1916 proclamation, secular. IS- internationalist aim (da Ummah), theocratic, expansionist.
Politics: no comparison. PIRA- political wing in Sinn Fein, political aims limited to sovereignty. IS don't believe in politics.

balls. The IRA continued divorced from the state after the civil war, went on to launch attack on England pre-ww2, went on to launch attacks on norn iron around 50th anniversary of 1916, and then dwindled, to be resurrected by an influx of northerners 1969. IRA has never gone away, and will never go away until its original founding aim is reached. PIRA has been just one incarnation of it.

Then they chimp out because an island wide curfew placed on the republic and northern Ireland was enforced and then they opened fire on our army.

You don't open fire on an army you invite over and want to help you. You don't do it.
