	Vandalism
		Vandalism (capitalized) is hostility to the arts and literature, or willful destruction or defacement of their monuments, said to be in the spirit of the Vandals in their attacks on the Roman Empire.
		Some well-known cases of vandalism in Ireland included the blowing up of Nelson's Pillar, a large monument in the centre of Dublin, by a group of republicans in 1966.
		Some vandalism qualifies as culture jamming or sniggling - artistic statements in their own right that are illegal and destructive from the point of view of the legal system, but are done with a creative and artistic impulse.

	Talk:Vandalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This I believe circumvents POV policy since it is an example and if placed prominently may encourage other would be vandals to either edit that particular text (hopefully to something beneficial) or realise they're not the first muppet to vandalise the vandalism page.
		An adult discussion of political-religious vandalism might begin by mentioning the defaced monuments of Akhnaten and the wave of vandalism that swept the Roman Empire in the wake of the Theodosian decrees.
		These other POV on vandalism should be recognized by those who may find your comparison to rape to be not only insulting, but biased and extreme, with no real connection to the work itself.

	Provisional Irish Republican Army - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At a regional level, the IRA is divided into a Northern Command, which operates in Northern Ireland and the border counties of the Republic, and a Southern Command, which operates in the rest of Ireland.
		The PIRA is described as a terrorist organisation by the governments of the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom, the United States, Spain, Germany and Italy, the latter three of which have alleged the existence of IRA links with terrorist organisations within their own jurisdictions including ETA and the Red Brigades.
		Peter Mandelson, a former Northern Ireland Secretary (a member of the British cabinet with responsibility for Northern Ireland) contrasted the activities of the IRA and those of Al-Qaeda, describing the latter as "terrorists" and the former as "freedom fighters".

	Ireland - Uncyclopedia
		Ireland's domination of the universe was hard to maintain when there were more important things to do and for a long time it looked like the whole place would fall apart.
		Ireland nearly got away with the theft of what is now known as the Isle of Woman in 566AD, when it was attached to the UK mainland, but Cuchulain was caught before he got home with it and nobody has ever been arsed to move it back.
		Ireland's main exports today are Enya CDs and Riverdance merchandise to America, and it's Banshee entrants to the Eurovision Song Contest which kept being held in Ireland to stop them disrupting things elsewhere.

		Ireland is well known for her literature and music, but less so for the thousands of ancient megalithic sacred sites which are perhaps her greatest treasure.
		Ireland's megalithic legacy is a global treasure, and much astronomical, anthropological, mythological and other research is needed to comprehend the meaning of its art, its grounding in the land, its focus on the stars, and its relationship to time.
		This is the royal heart of Ireland, burial place of the Mother Goddess Eriu, who is symbolically enabled to see the whole of her land and people when the Druidic fires are lit at Bealtaine (May Eve).

	Brendan Smyth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brendan Smyth (1927–1997) was a child molester from Northern Ireland, who used his position as a Catholic priest to obtain access to his victims.
		In some cases, the Order did not inform the diocesan bishop in Ireland or the U.S. that Smyth had a history of sexual abuse and should be kept away from children.
		His arrest led to the collapse of an Fianna Fáil/Labour coalition government in 1994 when the incompetent handling of an extradition request from the RUC by the Irish Attorney-General's office led to a further delay of some months in Smyth facing trial.

		The true interests of the whole community in Northern Ireland require that the majority should not fail in fairness and generosity towards all their fellow citizens and that the minority should play a truly constructive part which it is the United Kingdom Government's firm determination should be made available to them.
		But the people of Northern Ireland, and indeed of the United Kingdom as a whole, can rest assured that there is no purpose to which the Government is more firmly committed than the restoration of the rule of law in Northern Ireland, and whatever means are necessary to that end will be made available.
		But Northern Ireland has been the focus of speculation and uncertainty for a prolonged period already, and there can be little doubt that as long as such uncertainty continues to exist, it will be exploited by those who seek to prey upon the fears of the communities.

		Also, Home Rule for Ireland, the democratic policy of an elected British Government, was stopped by an open rebellion - fomented by the gentlemen of the establishment - backed by a mutiny of the officer class in the British Army and the threat of armed resistance from the illegal unionist army, the UVF.
