Only a young pup myself, so im ignorant to age old confilcts and ive been trying to learn the epic history of the troubles in Ireland. I read books from both sides of the spectrum to gain a wider knowledge, Cromwells atrocities, Protestant massacres preceding etc etc .. but in more recent article i read, that alot of American money paid for the IRA campaign, with many Americans having Irish ancestry and nursing older prejudices.. In a nutshell, to any older and wiser people than me. (and hopefully not indoctrinated to anyones "side") Is it true that the Terrible events of 9/11 hugely contributed to the peace treaty taking effect in Northern Ireland, following a sudden halt of widespread support to the IRA from citizens in the USA?
