Cahill was a great man, a hero of the Irish people.

The Provisionals did not start the Troubles there was a great deal of provocation by the other side and the authorities as well who baton charged civil rights marches. The Loyalist community did not want equal rights given to the Catholic community under any circumstances and were burning them out of their homes and causing many to flee into the Republic. The British gov at first did nothing then sent troops to protect the Catholics who in the end turned on them. Many of the troops were Scots regiments and they got into bed with their Protestant Ulster Scot brothers and back shot people including woman and children. The IRA had become a nonviolent movement prior to all that in the 1960s.

I met Joe once in SF offices in Dublin, he was a real strategist and he knew how to deal with the Brits. He gave his whole life for the struggle, he even spent years in prison, yet they could never break him. God Bless you Joe, we are all inspired by your sacrifice.

James Connolly they did break him. The provos were founded to oppose Stormont. Joe ended up supporting British rule from stormont.

Without Joe Cahill there would be no peace agreement. He sold the agreement to the hardliners. Adams and even McGuinness couldn't have brought them on board without the backing of Joe Cahill.

Forced. Really? Forced? With the greatest of respect(sincerely) PIRA became clever. Not instantly. Some of them were forced in to making bad, bad, decisions and mistakes. Mistakes that are remembered. The armed struggle should have been considered, planned for, trained for, funded for. They became brilliant.. But at the start? They were forced to wake up and to begin in earnest. Just as well someone had been on holiday to Libya... The question re civilian casualties (maiming, death, terror) is valid. Valid and it should be the first, second and third question too. Adrenaline, ignorance and foolishness did the IRA harm. If you want to kill a target...kill that target. You're both adults in an adult's game. Bus stations? Economic targets? Waste bins? Civilians do not have to die in a planned armed campaign. Many brit "planners" through the late 80's could call the IRA savages because they acted as such in the public's eye. But then, everyone are savages to some brits... Scaring the British didn't work. Scared? Sure. Going to go home because of it? Hmmm. Somewhat.
