galrads: Are the Taliban really any worse than the Irish when it comes to outright murdering children?

“ When 14-year-old Philip Rafferty left his home in west Belfast to go to band practice, his mother, Maureen, made sure he was wearing his new winter coat. The next time she saw it was in a plastic bag at his inquest, saturated with blood.

On January 30th, 1973, Philip was on his way home when he was abducted from the street by loyalist paramilitaries. He was taken to the Giant’s Ring, outside Belfast, where they hooded him with his coat, beat him, and then shot him several times.”

I know all about these deaths of innocents at the hand of the British..comfort

It is a simple question? "What was it all about?"

Another good question Sunny, I don't know where those men will get their wages now.. It seems to me that after 20 years of American "involvement" the place is worse off than when they arrived, same as Iraq I believe..

Increase the peace..peace

I was just asking for opinions, and by the replies, of some, and now I don't really need an answer as they just seem to hurl insults and dodge the question.. Ah well, 'tis Saturday and the real world awaits.. Have a good day bro..cheers

It's not like a football match or a horse race, you pick a winner and hope for the best... Intervene, you'll be called a warmonger and paternalist. Don't intervene, you'll be accused of turning a blind eye to atrocities...

And that's a problem for world peace because of ladies and gentlemen. The gentlemen only exists because of the lady saying ladylike things in a lady's voice. But as the woman becomes like a bloke, the man becomes like a savage, so that relatively speaking she's still a lady. A lady compared to that raging psychopath.

And the gym. The gym has fascism all over the walls and people don't even realise. Losing your humanity is part and parcel of the gym, particularly if you speak to anyone.

The Brits were there as well as a few other allies were....Now Americans on this site might realise why your allies have an opinion when it comes to America. instead of calling us haters..Instead of telling us America isn't our business..America don't fight wars on their own..Am yet to see an American on any site give any thanks to those who fought along side America

If people can remember, the Taliban was funded by the west to fight off the red army of Russia a few decades ago .
Bun laden was sponsored by America . Al-Qaeda & the Taliban were formed as a result of this .
So my point is , stay out of others affairs, or it may come to note you in the butt .

Name_Taken_Too: Yes I understand that, it doesn't really matter to those living in fear of having they're families blown to bits, while they sleep in their $100 tents by $1000's bombs from American jets, who the President is to be sure..
Aye....a bomb is a bomb and a bullet in the head is a bullet in the head.

It's the Taliban they're (the women and girls) more afraid of and more at risk from. They're so afraid of them the women are too afraid to even go to sleep at night because they don't know what to expect.

The US (mainly) created this appalling situation, they should never have left it the way they did.

This is going to create another flood of refugees into Europe, and you can be pretty sure the US won't be opening their doors to them..

It's truly shocking.....
