US and France would not shy from a Loughgall-style response to Isis
The IRA and its apologists must have had the luck of the Irish on their side by operating their terrorist campaign in the pre 9-11 era. Rewrite the Loughgall story from a 2016 / Isis perspective, and we can see how perverse the bleating from the IRA apologists really is:
‘US Navy Seals acted disproportionately in the deaths of eight Isis fighters in New York’
Or:
‘French Special Forces acted disproportionately in the deaths of eight Isis fighters in Paris theatre attack’
Absurd, isn’t it?
