In 2003, at a gathering in London to commemorate the IRA hunger striker Bobby Sands, he said IRA terrorists should be “honoured”: “It's about time we started honouring those people involved in the armed struggle. It was the bombs and bullets and sacrifice made by the likes of Bobby Sands that brought Britain to the negotiating table. The peace we have now is due to the action of the IRA. I can't be arsed trawling though the plethora of reports from all sides of the media that you will dismiss as context.

Or in other words it's trying to justify what he said. Of course the author of that piece is neutral in his views....you can fit most things into the context that suits either side you want to.

Blair talked to the IRA the conservatives would not until they ceased violence. Fundamental to the IRA was that the conservatives are the conservative and unionist party. Just be glad its over.

Do you think we would have had the Anglo Irish agreement were it not for the troubles before?

Not justify what he said but counter the bulls*** and half truths that you seem happy to continue perpetuating.
