The Brits defeated the IRA this month
after 25 years and roughly 4,000 deaths.
The decommissioning of IRA weapons was brought about through peaceful
means. The British did not 'defeat' the IRA, that implies they won by
force. The British and Irish governments realised many years ago that
the only way to end the problem was peaceful negotiation.
