The PIRA campaign that we are talking about started in  a few years before Bloody Sunday so you can hardly say it started the whole affair in motion  actually I think the whole affair was started in motion hundreds of years ago Anyway this article is not about the British Army its about the PIRA so we need to stick to their contribution to the death  injury count And as Ive said elsewhere the PIRA have achieved very little else in the past  odd years than kill and maim a lot of people In ever repects by their own published aims they have failed So although we do need to agree  upon accurate figures along with the sources to back them up  the information must appear in the lead for this article
