 | | Founded by Seamus Costello on December 8, 1974, the INLA is the armed wing of the Irish Republican Socialist Party (IRSP) and a splinter group of the Official Irish Republican Army (Official IRA). |
 | | Shortly after its formation, the INLA was engaged in a bitter feud with its founding group, the Official IRA, which sought to destroy the faction. |
 | | In the 1980s, the INLA was almost torn apart by factionalism, intra-republican rivalries, criminality, and arrests. |
