Real IRA threatens to attack British bankers

The dissident republican TERRORIST group labelled bankers as "criminals" and as the "next door neighbours of the politicians".

The TERRORISTS claimed that support for them was building and that they had turned away nationalists wishing to become members because they did not have the means to cater for them.

You´ve asked this one a few times before - I have heard both Irish and Kurdish described as both "rebels" and "terrorists" depending on the political leanings of the journalist.  It´s called freedom of speech - you should read up about it sometime
