![]() "Quantum Foam Guy" wrote in message ... 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. unless Ted Kennedy had a secret slush fund that we don't know about. Possible. To say the USA "financed" the IRA is therefore very disengenuous of you. Not at all. 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. 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. Marie |

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)". 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. 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. 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.

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.

No reply to this I see. |
