Abstract
Ireland since the 1100's has been in conflict with England. Usually over a period of
time problems begin to be resolved, but in this case the conflict has not. For over 800
years the conflict between Ireland and England has not only gotten more serious but it
has involved the Irish protestants fighting among the Irish catholics. Since 1969, the
presence of the English troops has forced the Irish people to use weapons in order to
obtain their freedom and Independence from England. There are many ways of going
around this problem but in Ireland a "SHOOT to KILL" policy has been implemented.
Present day history has been revolving around peace talks among Northern Ireland and
England. Armed groups in Northern Ireland have agreed on a cease-fire until peace talks
can be decided upon.
