Much of the "military action" was to secure their control over the local crimes whether drugs prostitution etc,. Many were not in it for the politics but for the money. I do find it highly amusing that the Americans gave bucket loads of money to Sinn Fein, who want a united socialist Ireland. I wonder how socialist they mean. The crisis in the south gave them a huge boost recently. Prior to that they were regarded as a joke in the South.

Oh, socialism for them only goes as far as what suits their political agenda. People will still find themselves being intimidated one way or another

Yes but Stalin personally did well out of his version of socialism.

Apparently Sinn Fein's karaoke fund raisers weren't all they could have been back in the old days...
