The concept that the IRA or any of those groups was fighting a war of independance is laughable at best, mainly because they went after soft unarmed civilian targets.
They were fighting a vendetta, nothing more. They're no better then the thugs that took the planes into the World Trade Center.
They're not soldiers fighting a heroic battle, they're death dealers blowing up pubs and shooting teenagers.
