thats wonderful but you know, we live in ireland where all we should care about is Ireland and if England comes into the picture about Ireland then we should discuss it. This is one heck of a bad topic

Don't be so narrow-minded. The site is for people who discuss all sorts of world-wide political issues. If you can't handle this maybe you ought to go.

id say a British bomb and rocket attack in Basra or Afghanistan is probably a lot more imminent . The people there seem to cope with the daily threat of a British attack over the last number of years much better .

Tip of the cap, Merle. Excellent point. Dubcentral, are you aware that your thread is ridiculous and racist?

Kudos, Merle.

Vito, never mind the thread, DubSthCentral is ridiculous and racist, Just take a read through the "Questioning Islam" thread to see this intellectual giant at work.

It's no wonder he votes FF

If you care so much about world-wide issues then why aren't you discussing the thousands that die in the Middle East every week because of Western involvement. And people aren't killed but an undetonated bomb is found and you're interested because its in Britain, sounds like you're a bit narrow minded to me

There were far more bomb attacks on the British mainland during the troubles, than there were in the 26-counties. Do you think is reasonable, therefore, to point that out to you the next time you start banging on about the Dublin and Monaghan bombings?

Whataboutery works both ways, you know.

Nice to see you're reduced to name-calling - again! Noticing a pattern here.
