Well if the speech has done nothing else its woken the Blairite opposition up. Harris, Rentoul and now Dan Hodges all on TV expressing their outrage at the idea that they might bear a tiny amount of responsibility for what they did.
 
I think everyone can see that you are the apologist, not I. You have singularly avoided answering my question. Wonder why....
The question you posed framed them as some kind of freedom fighters which is absolutely disgusting. There are no words for you.
 
Supporting the IRA Addams and co come off it it was worse electioneering than UKIP today his past will now surface even more he left an open goal for his critics the Tory machine will cease on that speech!
I'm not sure. I think people are beginning to realise that violence begets violence. Usually you would expect a surge in support for the Conservatives after an event like this, but Labour appear to be gathering support. Also, you can't equate the IRA with ISIS, very different.

They have already thrown the IRA links at him a few years back.

He was right in the end, if we wanted peace we had to open up political dialogue to get it.

They bomb and kill people that's a common denominator Corbyn was a IRA symphiser so he thinks being friendly with an unknown enemy will stop the likes of Manchester happening again - dream on he is in cloud cuckoo land!

Not true at all, you slippery little snake, you. I said this:

Imagine an alternative universe without NATO where countries of Western Europe were constantly being invaded, often on utterly false pretences, by, say, an economically advanced Pakistan and Saudi, or else showered in missile and drone strikes that often took out many more innocent people than even died in Manchester this week. Do you think there might be a great anger and resentment in the West towards those counties and their allies? And is it really such a leap of imagination to predict that a small section of Westerners might rally around their Christianity to declare a holy war on the infidels?

Now stop playing silly buggers and answer the question.
