Interesting article. I too would agree that the bridge between unionism and a united Ireland is not actually as large as it may appear. One of the fundamental things which I realised over the years is that the vast majority of unionists have no problem with the Irish in general, just with the nationalists in the north. This was once made clear to me when a university friend commented that unionists would happily join a united Ireland tomorrow

Just because the media reports that they were discharged it doesn't mean they were simply 'let go'. This was a point that I admit I did not know. In that case I'd say that the US military has a serious problem with communications. They really need to get the message across to the people who ha

Dr Guy, asking others to provide proof of terrorism links in other countries because you choose to ignore the 9/11 commission report is rediculous. Just look at Libya and Lockerbie. You're purposely sidestepping the issue that the US went to war primarily on WMD and secondly on terrorist links. Just search through old JU articles to look at the abuse that these reasons were given at the time of the war. I and many others argued that these reason
