    Good news if it happens , but this bit.....
    The leadership said it will invite one witness each from the Protestant and Catholic churches to witness the disarmament.
    ....looks like it will lead to a repeat of the blocking of disarmament that happened last time .

    Why doesn't the government ban religion. If I was Blair, that's what I would do. No religion, no fighting. Simple, no?

    Religion's got very little to do with it.

    Tribesman, I agree, they should have gone all the way. But I think this differs from other times in that they are saying, "This is what we are going to do", as opposed to "This is what we are prepared to do".

    Actually, if you did that EVERYONE would be blowing London and Belfast up, not just the IRA and the Protestants.

    Why do you hate Freedom?
    The US is marching backward to the values of Michael Stivic.

    Excellent news for the future of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

    Perhaps now we can look forward to reasonable peaceful negotiations without the threat of violence looming over at all times.
    Cowardice is to run from the fear;
    Bravery is not to never feel the fear.
    Bravery is to be terrified as hell;
    But to hold the line anyway.

    If that happened in my country I would support attacks. And I would donate money to the organization that did it. As long as they tried not to hit innocents.
