Indeed.

And also, if the USA and UK pays the great numbers of Palestinians they have killed and displaced, the money they owe them thanks to giving arms to Israel.

Good stuff they posted my comment:Should the British Govt pay the victims of loyalist murders since the British army played a part in much of the terror loyalist gangs caused during the troubles?

The imperialists won't pay their victims families, no matter what. Even if the Libya-IRA thing sets a precedent, it's only because it's getting media coverage. Any such cause in a third world country would not get any attention from the media, and therefore could be easily ignored by the USA and the UK and such.

What do the victims of the IRA have to do with the US soldiers who bombed Tripoli?

Well it seems pretty obvious.

Killing someone's sons is a good way to start a massive shitfest.

The "victims'" families are calling on Libya to pay reperations, since they trained and armed the IRA, I was merely pointing out that is this is goin gto be the standard, it shouldn't be a one way street so to speak.

Well, seeing as how most IRA victims were either agents of the British government or in collusion with those agents, they have a fair bit in common with US troops.
