Adams and co hands are dripping with blood.

Yeah valid points, however British Forces were actually deployed to protect the Catholic communiites and the civil rights movement (mostly Catholic in origin) in 1969, yet in a few short months they had gone from being universally welcomed to being despised by the Catholic Community.

That's before the major clusterfuck that was Bloody Sunday, 1972, which did more to boost the IRA and Nationalist support than any other action carried out in the province.

Plus you then have internment, which was supposed to have been used for all terrorist suspects, the initial round up was mainly Nationalists, and a few of the more vocal civil rights organisers, yet loyalist terror organisations were in fact more active at the time than the IRA.

As for the bombings on the UK mainland, that was a tactic of desperation. It caused major splits within the IRA. And in fact by that time elements of the British Armed Forces had carried out what would be classed as black operations both in the North of Ireland and also in Eire.
