There were a huge amount of sectarian killings on both sides. I doubt if many of them were justified. It was criminals able to run amok. Iraq central By "sectarian killings" do you mean Protestants killing Catholics (and vice-versa)? I was specifically asking about Protestants killing Protestants and Catholics killing Catholics for informing or collaborating or whatever you call it. Do you know roughly what the casualty figures were for the whole Troubles? I'm trying to get a sense for how the British media covered such killings, compared to the Mideast. I know the BBC calls the IRA "terrorists" whenever they set off a car bomb, but they have a standing policy that calls Palestinian bombers "militants".
