Like the IRA.

In most peoples eyes terrorists. In their own eyes freedom fighters, trying to rid their country of a foriegn occupier, and fighting for their perceived human rights, a bit like the Palestinians.

Not a supporter of the IRA, just making a comparison that human rights are open to question.
