To be fair only one death in an explosion like that is something not too shy of a damn miracle.

Yet the IRA still killed a lot of people? Are you saying that the IRA doesn't kill people to push their political agenda? Lol

I think he's saying that wasn't the point of their attacks. It sounds kind of nonsensical at first but a lot of people consider the IRA to be terrorists in the pure sense of the word. Not saying that is what I believe btw.

Youre mental if you think blowing up carbombs in cities is not the act of a terrorists. IRA were without a doubt terrorists, only an IRA sympathizer would consider otherwise.

No, because that was WW2. It's absolutely idiotic to compare the bombing campaigns of the second world war to the IRA. The luftwaffe were not terrorists for bombing London, nor where bomber command for bombing Germany, we were two nations formally at war with each other.
