£16 million pounds given to make a shrine for terrorism in N.Ireland?

Well, one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter; The UK has (or had) a great problem with certain organizations fighting for the reunification of northern ireland.

I remember there's this one Star Trek episode, the plot of the episode is about an alien planet's government and their fight with a group of terrorists (or freedom fighters), and in the episode, one of the characters is discussing with another past examples of the successful use of guerilla violence to achieve a goal; It's set in the future, and one is listing them off, and he says "...and the Irish reunification of 2024."

And then I heard the British government had the episode banned from being shown on television. Shows their attitude about the whole thing, like even to a reference to it.

Anyway, just an interesting tidbit.

I'm not sure that this post belongs on this forum. Perhaps a moderator can move it to another location.

The video no longer exists so a newbie to this thread is not going to know the details.

I didn't even watch the video, myself. But I hardly think that it's an inappropriate topic.....it really happens in the world today and as such it's a valid issue.

I suppose to go into more detail, that would be a shrine in support of the IRA's cause, is it? Well, I guess how you view it all depends on how you view the IRA. If you see the IRA as pointless, then it's pointless killing. If you see the IRA as noble, then it's a noble fight, perhaps. If you see the IRA as a bunch of thugs, then it's men doing evil cuz they like it, or something like that. But it all depends on your perspective.
