Legacy of first IRA ceasefire

by Richard on August 31, 2004

The tenth anniversary of the first IRA ceasefire is an appropriate day to remember that not all terrorism has arisen in the Middle East. It is not just Muslims who have called upon the name of God to justify their atrocities.

And while Northern Ireland is not exactly at peace, it is in a far better state than it was in 1994. Politics and diplomacy are succeeding where 20 years of military conflict failed utterly.

That’s a thing worth bearing in mind.
