I'm afraid you are right. And I can even understand their

reasoning, since they are not really educated on the matter. And

that must be remedied.
In 1915 the Irish resistance against the English occupation was so

strong the English offered a peace-treaty. They offered to divide

Ireland into two sections, one in their control -- Northern

Ireland -- and controled by Ireland itself.
Half of the Irish resistance wanted to fight on for a decent

treaty and the other half wanted to accept the deal.
So then the Irish started fighting one another...
Divide and rule, it works the same everywhere.
