Name one terrorist attack in the UK financed by the USA. Stuff that

happened
200 years ago doesn't count.

I know what you are referring to, of course. The US government didn't

fund
IRA terrorists, Marie,


I did not say the US givernment had financed the IRA. I may suspect

that
iut did, but I have no proof, so I would not write that.


You sure did imply that, Marie. I think it's telling that you snipped out
what you now deny saying: "We have had many, many terrorist attacks in the
UK (many financed by the USA)".


Read thyat again. Where is the word "government" mentioned?

unless Ted Kennedy had a secret slush fund that we
don't know about.


Possible.


Only if you're paranoid or hate the US so much that you'll believe any
stupid conspiracy tale as long as it's hateful.


No: all governements have a secret slush fund. You are naive if you believe
otherwise.

To say the USA "financed" the IRA is therefore very
disengenuous of you.


Not at all.


Yes, Marie. Your statement is very disengenuous. It's also quite hateful

of
you.


Not at all: we used to love visiting the USA.


What happened in the 1970s and 1980s was a group of
private stoopid Irish-American citizens (not the American government)

gave
money to the IRA. Victims of IRA violence should sue in US courts the

morons
who did this. I can only wonder why this hasn't happened.


We are not so litigious as you.


This is hardly litigious. This is about right and wrong. Suing these

people
would greatly help the families of the victims and teach the perps a

lesson.

I respect your opinion about fingerprinting, Marie. I truly do. As a
life-long member of the Labour Party, I'm sure you won't be voting for

the
Tories. So when UK customs and integration begins fingerprinting

inbound
visitors to the UK, who will you vote for?


Probably the Liberal Democrats, possibly the Greens. I would study

their
manifestos and decide, as any sensible person should.
The Labour party of today is not the one I joined.



No reply to this I see.
