Ireland and Terrorism

As he is apt to do, Mark Steyn has written a great column.

This one is about Irish terrorism from the Irish Republican Army (IRA), and on President Bush's welcome decision to bar Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams (who represents the political wing of the IRA) from St. Patrick's Day ceremonies at the White House.

Among other thing, it notes the visciousness of IRA violence against dissident Catholics, and notes how the IRA's ultimate goal is the takeover of southern Ireland.

Also noted is America's shameful support of the IRA for the last 30 years. Until W. Bush, that is.

Well worth the read.
