    Belfast was a target and maybe Dundalk because of the cattle boats but we'll forgive them,they were under a lot of stress at the time.

    They bombed Dublin a couple of times because they sent their fire brigade north to Belfast after German bombings there. Ireland also sent Allies who landed in Ireland north over the border yet kept Germans captive.

    I would have had every British troop who landed executed tbh.

    You're a prick though. A guy told me a story about the creamery they bombed in Shelbourne, but can't remember it. Hope this helps.

    A few? Several? Doesn't change the reasons of which I'm correct about :emoticon-0103-cool:

    The huns still say the IRA lit fires on the hills surrounding Belfast as a marker for the Germans <laugh>

    Even if it was only 4 times, then that is a 100% mark up from twice. Still not sure what you are correct about.

    But the reason the bomber did it was because a year earlier an Allied soldier was captured and he had Shelbourne butter in his pocket or something. So the crazy German bombed the creamery. Obviously utter nonsense but it was funny the way my mate told me it.

    They did try bomb Dundalk as a warning for the cattle boats.
