Murderous Terrorists Kill Brits

Here's what I don't understand about this whole issue. Terrorism is generally a tactic that is used by one people to gain their indpendence from another power/country that is oppressing them. IF the people doing the oppressing would just stop and give them their freedom, then the tactics should stop. I believe that is the problem in Israel/Palestine. And I believe that is al Qaeda's beef with the west.

I don't know what the politics are right now between Britain and Ireland, and what the IRAs continued beef is. But, if it has anything to do with what I said, it seems to me that Ireland should be it's own independent country, with sovereignty and independent government and all that goes along with that. Could you please enlighten me SD? Are they not independent now? I kinda thought all of this was pretty much settled.
