The Real IRA?
I see Minister for Defense Willie O'Dea has attacked the IRA over its use of the term "Oglaigh na hEireann".
Speaking at the opening of the new museum and privates' mess at Collins Barracks in Cork,Minister O'Dea said: "There is only one Oglaigh na hEireann-it is the Irish Defense Forces.
"The attempted appropriation of this noble and historic title is an insult to the memory of those who,like General Michael Collins,strove for Irish freedom."
I agree with Minister O'Dea.It is insulting.Then again,what do you expect from the Provos?They do not care one iota for the Irish state.Never have,never will.
