:The CIRA and the PIRA aren't a "national army". They are self-appointed thugs who rob banks, kill policemen like [[Garda Siochána|Garda]] McCabe, kill widows and bury them in secret graves, rob banks and fund themselves through selling heroin to working class kids. But then (typically) you won't create a user account, and sneak on to wipe out all other edits by all over users to revert to your own POV version, showing the same contempt for rules that your pals in the CIRA regularly show. They kill people. You kill community's edits and then run and hide. Like your sectarian pals.

I agree that the Provo party militia is not a National Army. Óglaigh na hÉireann (C.I.R.A.) on the other hand, is. They are not self-appointed - but recognised by Dáil Éireann as the Army of the Republic. Following the transfer of governmental authority of the Irish Republic from the Executive Council of the 2nd Dáil to the Army Council of the I.R.A. to hold in trust, the Army Council continued as the lawful Government of Ireland. As such, the I.R.A. continues as the Army of the Republic, and answerable to the Government of the Republic.
