Willie Frazer?Lose all credibility having him on this.2 young protestants were taken from his pub and given an awful death by Loyalists.His father was a murderer too.Having him associated with the army goes to show how blurred the lines were when locals looked on the ranks of the security forces

My cousin was in the Grenadier Guards in the 80s. When he was stationed in Belfast, the provos would stand outside the barracks at night calling his name. "Duffy ya English cunt, you're a dead man in the morning" They knew his parents were Irish, his name and where he grew up. He still laughs about it to this day but he is a bit of a nutter.

His tour of duty like all the British soliders who served up north was for nothing, driving up north now its hard to spot where the border is things have changed so much. A united Ireland is inevitable.

@R D Im sorry to tell ya this but when the brits signed the agreement in 1985 that let the Irish state have a say in the running of the north that was the start of the end of the north. Since then its been unity by stealth. Then came brexit, the gift that keeps on giving and the dup support of a hard brexit has pushed things further along. As much as you may want to believe there will be no return to trouble,last time the brit state armed the loyalist, that wont happen again.

I remember doing the first vehicle patrol into Cross in almost 20 year's. The look on their faces was pure shock, when we rolled up. But I jumped out and stood at the corner. And a young woman pushing a pram, passed me. And told me I had to change the battery on my white sifter, as the low battery alarm was sounding. I couldn't believe she would know about our so called secret equipment. Then I used to do lots of gremlins in West Belfast, when I joined C.O.P. Loved my time over there, even though there was bad times as well.

Taking pot shots, then running away into crowds of innocent women and children. And anytime we did see them, their faces were covered with balaclavas.

Mortars were also a big fear. They had these like home made gas canisters on the back of trucks filled with explosives and launched on the HLS. Golf towers were exposed.

If that what you had said happened, two men would still be alive. Wars are ugly and when we look back at the troubles, all sides lost people for what!! A piece of land that we all say is ours but in fact all we will own in the end is a plot that we will fit into when we ourselves die. Sad but we all need to put the past behind us. Carrying hatred forward will only dent our future and the future of our children.

michelob81 the issue that people in Northern Ireland have. They vote based on religion, not on who can deliver the best policy for all the people. I left Northern Ireland because of the politics and that people still want to live in the past. The province is still 20 yrs behind the rest of the UK. Our transportation system that is there, only delivers to one side of Ireland. The train network is too expensive to use and needs updated. If you live between Derry to Fermanagh, then the chance of you grabbing a train is Zero. Sinn Fein don’t want to take their seats in parliament as the won’t take the oath in London to the queen and country, however Martin Mc Guinness shook hands with the queen. Then we have the DUP who say the won’t negotiate with Sinn Fein and yet they sit and blame them for all the wrong doings in Ulster. I’m glad I moved out of Northern Ireland as I now have a better life for my family and job prospects are better too. I hate the way children suffer in Northern Ireland due to the very ignorance , as politicians won’t talk to each other. Sad but it won’t get any better soon. Public services are loosing finances as departments are closed due to the closure of Stormount. Very sad but true.

First of all I was sick about what they did to those two soldiers bodies (there's a KZbin video of most of their deaths). I think one of the soldiers had been in N.I. longer than the other, thought he'd been clever & show the newer soldier the "action" that's why the British soldier being interviewed said, "They should never have been there".. The other thing they did wrong was not standing back-to-back & firing (even into the air), this would have possibly given them some time to get back in their vehicle, "put the pedal to the metal" & get out. I guess all the training goes out of your head when surrounded by people you know want to kill you & are, most likely, armed also. I wish that the British "higher ups" would let the police do what they need to (shoot if they're being shot upon). Surely they do, you might ask? But NO. The police in N.I. have to wait for a series of codes to come down before they can even draw their weapons, never mind shoot. Never join the British Army. If you don't "know someone", you're just cannon fodder. By the way, calling it a "war" is nonsense because in a real war BOTH sides wear a uniform to level the playing field. The police here had a time, after which a new battalion of Brits came in & they, basically "babied them". When I was 4 years old, two soldiers on street patrol said disgusting things to me (it was sexual vulgarity & was explained when I was much older). That was our "norm". As was not picking up fountain pens on school buses, the I.R.A. booby-trapped those! However, giving the U.S.M.R.C.D. A "place to relax" many years later, I realised that the soldiers from England who disregarded our childhood & respect (no spitting or bad language) were basically like new marine recruits, teenagers dressed up to play a very serious game.............

@@briankelleher2156 The stupid thing really was that it was Republicans who ASKED for the British army to come to our lovely country NOT Unionists. I did talk about things we had to go through when the Brits flew hundreds of very young & not well-trained soldiers our way!! To them, no matter our beliefs, we were ALL "the enemy" & I have recounted elsewhere that soldiers often thought it amusing to talk to a female child about having sexual assignations (as happened to myself starting aged five & the other girls in my family). Many years later, as I sat around the table with gormless U.S. marine recruits & naval personnel that they were basically all poorly trained, not so bright cannon fodder!! The statement wasn't so stupid either as the Brits worked behind the scenes, trying to pacify the I.R.A.., basically working against the so-called majority. I was blown sky-high by an IRA bomb in my home city of Doire as a 4-yr-old, a large part of my family were from Gweedore (the Gaeltacht area of Donegal), most not speaking a word of English until they were adults but Irish citizens, like us were only, "collateral damage". I think you've forgotten the motto, "Six into thirty-two doesn't go" or even "26+6=1" & also that the Republic of Ireland was 96% Roman Catholic, almost all IRA supporters or operatives, so your numbers are a bit "off". Therefore you can't cry like a baby now, pleading that Catholics in the 6 counties were a downtrodden minority as they had PLENTY of backup from across the border in the form of both willing IRA operatives & safehouses in which to hide, after a murder had been committed or bomb had been detonated, just a couple of minutes car ride (even a walk) across the border . In those "bad old days", any Irish girl, unknowingly taking a dance with a soldier, was swiftly labelled a "Tout" (the slur in those meant that the girl was giving soldiers important intelligence). Her "sentence"?? She'd have her head shaved, was tied to the nearest lampost & boiling hot tar, adorned with chicken feathers, was then poured from her head to her feet & there she was left, to die or have more scorn put upon her by adult men who would beat & spit upon, usually a teen, who was absolutely helpless - just for unknowingly taking an innocent dance with "the enemy". Don't forget, thanks to the "Good Friday Agreement," men who'd murdered their own countrymen (BOTH Republicans & Unionists) were allowed to walk free as though they were altar boys & that just doesn't make sense in any civilised country. You take a life, you must pay the price. Easy! They did it the coward's way by calling what they did, mostly to their own countrymen, a "war" yet they didn't have the courage to don a uniform. The same situation was faced by American servicemen & women in Vietnam - they didn't know if they were facing innocent civilians or armed combatants....As for the British army being well-equipped? As we watched the news from Gaza the other evening, we recalled that it was Yugoslavs who provided Semtex (unlike gelignite, it had no odour & therefore couldn't be sniffed out by dogs) the rest of the arms or the money to provide them were supplied by Libya, HAMAS &, sadly, people whose forebears immigrated to the U.S.A. & believed the lie that they were supporting "freedom fighters" who were trying to win a war against oppressors. We must NEVER go back to those days. Ireland is a beautiful country & must never be destroyed again by ANY of her own people!!

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@CartePostale.why did the republicans ask for the British army? You are from there so you should know. It was because when the catholics started looking for equal rights and an equal vote the unionists saw this as a threat to the union and decided to do a bit of ethnic cleansing. They burned down whole streets and neighbourhoods. Plenty of footage on the internet. The army was welcomed with open arms and cups of tea as a peacekeeping mission. The catholics thought they were going to protect them but it wasn’t long before their true intentions became clear. I am sorry that you had some horrible experiences growing up, no child should have to suffer that. To say it wasn’t a war is wrong. There was two opposing sides shooting and bombing each other . That is the definition of a war. There was a reason republicans didn’t wear uniforms they were not an official state army. The were a part time civilian militia of approximately 2500 ordinary Irish men and women who came together to protect their minority community which was about 500,000 at the time. The British soldiers who had a maximum deployment of 21000, were well armed and trained as they had the resources of a nation behind them. The republicans did not and had to make a lot of their own weapons. To say the catholics were not an oppressed minority is deluded. They had the shitty jobs, education and housing. They didn’t even have an equal vote. The voting system at the time was based on your wealth. The more business and property you had the more votes you got. As the Protestants had most of the wealth they always had most of the votes. It was a system designed to keep the unionists in power and didn’t exist anywhere else in Britain. When the catholics peacefully protested on Bloody Sunday 1972 they were gunned down by the cowardly paras , shot in the back as the dispersed, who then placed guns on the dead bodies, half of whom were under 18, and claimed it was an IRA attack. This was a lie they maintained for nearly 40 years before finally having to admit with a government apology. This was one year after the massacre of unarmed civilians in Ballymurphy who were going about their daily lives when they were executed. Oppression must have a different definition in your dictionary than it has in mine. In war you take help from anywhere you can get it. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Why shouldn’t people of Irish descent not help the Irish who were vastly outnumbered by the British? I agree with you that the history should not be repeated but we will obviously disagree on the cause.

It's always a 1 sided story, I wonder how they would feel if thousands of IRA occupied England and everyday would stop and investigate everything and anyone including there homes and childrens rooms with guns in there faces, calling them all kinds of racist and anti bastard English slang , killing kids because they were in the wrong place, Ir because they were protestant , or because they lived in a certain part of a random city. I'm sure they would fight back. It's a simple concept leave the country you occupy, to leave and let be. It's so simple it's mind boggling to me. The way they speak of citizens not even IRA just fed up with having there freedom once again taken from them. I mean it's so ridiculous that the world sat by and let this go in for decades with only escalating situations and more death more violence, once again it's mind boggling to me that they try and justify the whole conflict. England is a prod country IRI is mostly Catholic just leave each other alone and eventually the war will end, generations will pass on and both can be at peace. But still to this day protestants fued with Irish Catholics in NI. But the media called a cease fire so the workd thinks it's all over no more " troubles" it's like saying the U.S pulled 90% of it's armed forces out of Afghanistan and now there is no more Taliban or isis and its a problem free country. Religious oppression is extinct and everything is love, kisses and hugs, sorry but it's just not true. 20 years on and basically nothing has been accomplished they are still an occupied country and don't want anyone's help, obviously in not comparing Afghanistan and Iraq ir the middle east to Ireland or England , which is the western world full of peace and democracy. All bs, I'm not blaming the brit soldiers even if they obviously have a deep hatred for the Irish people and hikd grudges just as Irish do for brit soldiers who murdered there sons and daughters. The difference is one was an soldier ordered murder by the brit gov the other was a fed up civilian with a more understandable reason to fight ir defend there country from a foreign army trying to take over and occupy there country. The tactics I don't agree with guns and proper fights sure unless you corner civilians protesting who are unarmed and peacefully demonstrating and gun them down like rabid animals then try and justify it with no justice is just as bad as a car bomb going off killing people. But I have never watched ir even heard if a documentary justifying car bombs and murder on a major network television station. Again it's 1 sided and making the victims look like the oppressors and agitators, there both in the wring but some way way way more than the other. That's m piece on it, thank you good night.

Oh and this - Collaboration between the IRA and Abwehr during World War II ranged in intensity between 1937-1943 and ended permanently around 1944, when defeat of the Axis forces was seen as probable. Meaning if the IRA didn't sign a surrender agreement post WW2 , are they still combatants? The IRA picked the Nazis , the fucking Nazis. Oh course until they were put under.

what do you think they provos were , model soldiers keeping to the geneva convention, honour , what honour did the provos show , when they murdered the 10 protestant workers, what honour did they show when they slit robert mccartneys throat , they took no prisoners and attacked targets that were soft , softer the better like sleeping recruits, bandstands,hospital wards , rememberance services ,a recruit going home alone on a railway station, a recruiting sargent ,the list of dishonour is endless

Colonial wars always only go one way… Either ballot or gun OUR DAY WILL COME! Up the Provos!

Now the German army treated any soldier killed by guerilla fighter, with the execution of 100 men and women from the villages. Eventually they relented, and on orders from High Command reduced the number to 50. Strange, tragic, true, despicable however for the Germans, unsurprisingly effective.

They didn't drive through the crowd or shoot into them because the soldiers held some value to human life, unlike the fuckers who tortured and executed them. Republicans try to paint the Army as evil, nasty men who are there to kill the Irish people. If that were so then these two would have flattened the crowd, but they didn't.

@Darren Richardson You're right, it is becoming a better place. That is WHY the troops came off the streets, not the other way round. They ended the military operation when it was no longer needed. More than 300'000 troops rotated through NI during the troubles. A tiny proportion of them did the terrible things you describe. If even 1% killed an innocent civilian that would equal the total number of people killed in the entire conflict. Yet the Army killed a total of less than 300 people in the 35 years of the Troubles. This includes both paramilitaries and civilians. This does not excuse the behaviours you describe, but does highlight that the very great majority who deployed there were just normal guys doing a shitty job, stuck in the middle of a conflict they didn't start and probably don't really understand. This is the nature of soldiering. Most just wanted to survive the tour with their limbs intact.

In the end the IRA were defeated and as an Irishman myself, I was glad to serve Queen and country to defeat the republican movement. The IRA in the end were sold out by their own people who in the end, went into government with the establishment that they said they hated. They accepted British rule, the courts and the policing system. So now who won the war. The answer is the British army, the police and the government - they did put the republicans against the walls as there was no where for them to hide anymore.

caolan Mc Donald what. Another bunch of Mask teenagers terrorist, that hide behind their mum aprons. Let’s get one thing straight, the British army were superior trained and we took the fight to the IRA. Adams and Co, did realise that the war was over and this is why they moved sideways into full time politics. You were sold out by your commanders in the IRA movement and that’s the truth of this matter. Adams now condemn violence against the police and any British establishment now, so why don’t you go and take your little toy army and play elsewhere. Narrow minded republicans will never have a place in today’s world. Every nation and country will stand together against terrorism.

​@@brianpeters7847 hi, i never witnessed a british soldier do anything that stands out as bravery but my previous comment was very true, if u look u will find out for yourself. what aggravates me a lot is the contradiction, hypocrisy, holding people to different moral standards among a few other things. i dont hold any bad feeling toward a person because they are british, or a protestant. where i grew up and still live in north belfast was at the time as hard line republican as anywhere, it could be called the front line as much as anywhere. it still is, the groups that still exist here, oppose the GFA. many many english and protestant people lived among us, during the worst times, and still do. i never heard of them getting hassle because of the political situation or a bad word said behind their backs because of it. no one cared. there are people who lived through it who would still believe it was all about religion, no real understanding of it.
