ONly one of those english devils would call him a terrorist. He was fighting to free his country from 800 years of oppression by foreigners. I'm reading "the secret historyof the IRA " now and it has how their fight against their being branded as commone criminals(Like the English) led to major steps forward in the fight.
And not just an inspiration to Irismen. It had a major impact on how the fight against the English wa viewed all over the world

If he had really wanted to improve the situation of the people he said he was fighting for, he could have used his sincerity to do something useful. Instead, he chose to kill indiscriminately, which just created more hostility against the very people he was supposed to be trying to help. So he was a fool, a slave to his own belief in destruction instead of construction, and eventually in his own self-destruction.

TERRORIST like all the yellow IRA hiding behind women's skirts, killing Innocent women and children,they were just murdering bully's who could not take it when caught ,
the IRA thought of them self's as soldiers but did not put a uniform on because yellow camouflage stands out to much "lol"
the rest of the world did not class them as soldiers so British could not shoot them,what a shame it would of been over in weeks , still time though,
you can now buy IRA camouflage trousers in most markets they are a bit bright not like the ira,

Well it's certainly true that in this case a gunman died for the people - they say they'll do that, but usually it's the people who die for the gunmen.

A very nasty murderer. A terrorist in any language. There was nothing about him to be admired.
