The USA is as guilty with regards to the IRA as the Taliban was with Al Queda:
they not only tolerated their presence, not only made no effort to stop them,
but also morally supported them. "freedom fighters".

When the IRA bombed the HSBC headquarters in London, did the USA act to freeze
the funds of known IRA supporters ? NOP.

Greg didn't write this, JF. I did. Learn how to operate a newsreader

I've never funded the IRA, JF. My tax dollars didn't pay for the brutal
murder of British civilians. A small group of Irish-American assholes in
Boston gave money to the IRA. And they weren't the only source of IRA funds.
Besides local sources in Northern Ireland, the IRA also liked to pal around
with certain Middle Eastern groups. You did know that, right?

they not only tolerated their presence, not only made no effort to stop

them,
but also morally supported them. "freedom fighters".


I'm not old enough to remember the complete history of the IRA, JF. Perhaps
you are. I don't remember any "moral support" from the US government for the
IRA. Did the British government contact the FBI to track these Boston
assholes down, and if so, when do you think the families of the victims of
IRA terrorism will sue them? If I was to serve on such a jury I would
certainly find for the plaintiffs. As would just about any American outside
of certain Boston neighborhoods.
