@phantomsuccour shut up you idiot,a genocide???Yep that would really happen in this day and age,the rest of the world would sit back and let it happen,natiionalists just want their country back and end british occupation.And by the way in about 30 years time cathooics/nationalists will outnumber prods/unionists so majority rule isnt far off,if the prods arent happy they can go home to scotland where they belong and where they came from

Not wanting to offend the Republican's, but you'll never see a united Ireland within the next 100 years, The British Governement has just had to bail you out to the tune of £7 billion, on top of the £53 billion you own the Royal Bank of Scotland. It costs around £7 billion a year just to run Northern Ireland, do you honestly think the Southern Irish government are that keen to take it on? That debt won't be paid ever with the amount of interest that's on it, sorry but it's time to be realistic!

@phantomsuccour Ireland = N. Ireland ...sorry ;) and what i meant is that if they would hate to stay in N. Ireland (if it became part of the Irish repubblic ) just because of a piece of paper, i would understand that but i find it extreme. Besides,the conflicts in N. Ireland are based on ideological grounds...whish is astounding to say the least. Peace, im out ;) i wish you well

@phantomsuccour please dont take my arguments as a confrontation... im not Irish nor am i British. I just find this debate interesting. I perfectly understand that the Protestant (British loyalists or however you call them) people wouldnt want to leave their homes or be part of another country.But this is the price to pay if you want to stay in Ireland - in my opinion ofcourse! If Protestants wont stay just because of a piece of paper or treaty,then i suppose i understand that too

@phantomsuccour and another thing... how is it the Irish people's fault that Britain forcefuly colonized their country anyway ? I mean, did the Irish people say "come to us and rape our women, steal our land and do with us as you will" ? Ultimately it's the Britain's fault for taking Ireland from the Irish people ... however far away in history that might be. Same goes for Israeli government occupying Palestine (which is condemned by the U.N.) it's just that in Ireland it happened centuries ago

@phantomsuccour but Ireland land is Irish so they should make a choice - to be british citizens in Ireland (with same privileges as Irish people) or to move to Britain.Immagine if in Italy ,Austrians annexed Milan as part of Austria saying "Austrians dont want to be part of Italy so you cant have your land back" just a silly example.New generations of British didnt fight in the WW2 against Hitler so that argument odd.The question is:do protestants have a right to say N.Ireland is not Irish land?
