What I meant to say is that I find it offensive that people call al Queda terrorists but at the same time refer to the IRA or Eta as revolutionaries, as the connotation of each word suggests something entirely different. My point is that in their killing of innocents they are using politics and/or religion as an excuse to murder. Â This is never justifiable.

Terrorists or revolutionaries; either way they are still murderers. I find it HIGHLY offensive that people will condemn al Queda for killing innocent civillians but at the same time praise the IRA or Eta for killing innocent civillians. If they attack military or political targets then that is a different matter; but once they start killing people who have nothing to do with such targets then they can only be branded as murderers.

Ten days later, three IRA car bomb attacks in the village of Claudy left six dead. 8th March 1973 the IRA explode 2 bombs in London, killing one person and injuring 200. 21st November 1974 The IRA explodes a series of bombs in Birmingham England- 21 people are killed. February 9 1996 An Irish Republican Army bomb detonated in London, killing two persons and wounding more than 100 others, including two U.S. citizens. June 15 1996 An IRA truck bomb detonated at a Manchester shopping center, wounding 206 persons, including two German tourists, and caused extensive property damage. And many many more. Yeah, killing innocent civillians is really revolutionary. The IRA are murdering terrorists, plain and simple.
