The Morality of the IRA. Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Labels: Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Tuesday, February 8, 2011. It was 4 AM on August 9, 1971. Throughout the cities in Northern Ireland, policemen and soldiers drove through the streets in armored cars “lifting” people. They interned 342 people that day. One of them was Oliver Kelly. Early on August 9. This policy of internment, however, backfired on almost all fronts. It led to a couple of things:. A lot of angry Catholics in Ulster. With the Catholics revoltin...

The Morality of the IRA. Thursday, January 27, 2011. A (Very) Brief History Lesson.

They set up plantations, which many republican Irish view with disdain, and shipped the native Irishmen off to horrible bits of real estate. Much like what the colonists did to the Indians. Thus, these things I believe are quite...

The Morality of the IRA: War Stories
http://iraconflictinnorthernireland.blogspot.com/2011/01/war-stories.html
The Morality of the IRA. Wednesday, January 19, 2011. From Gerry Adams, the president of Sinn Féin, about a woman named Nora McCabe, who was murdered in 1981 by the RUC. Or Tony Doris from Kevin Toolis’ book. Or Pat Finucane mentioned in both Adam’s blog and Rebel Hearts. While these stories are incredibly sad, they also add another dimension into why people join the IRA. Nothing helps to keep anger alive like a martyr. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Sunday, February 8, 2009. The World Bank's Error. First, Wade discusses the trouble of the level of the international poverty line. Second, the household surveys from which the World Bank statistics are based on lack reliability. These surveys are conducted by various organizations with many practices. There is no international template for the surveys. There are many standards with a multitude of exceptions and loopholes. Overall, the quality of these surveys is not at all consistent.
