  • @B3N1690 Fair play to you grandad mate takes an extreme amount of courage to do what he did

  • @honey87west One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter, its the same the world over at the end of the day its a matter of individual opinion im not praising the work or the RA but for such an organisation to have existed for such a period of time is a true testament to the people within in and they support and believe in their cause. So once again one mans terrorist is anothers freedom fighter.

  • These guys are terrorists. No better than Al Qaeda.
