The increase of success of the west cork Brigade, part of the Irish republican Army was the leading factor to a hoi polloi of arresting and interrogating the suspects if the individual retirement account volunteers in an effort to identify and ascertain the headquarters of those who were engaging in the guerilla war against the essences of the British. Through interrogation the British managed to bankrupt the anger volunteers through torturing and this lead to disc all overing that the forces headquarters was in Ballymurphy.After discovering this, British army planned for an operation aimed at capturing the ire column. This lead to mobilizing of more than 1200 British troops to attack the area from different directions. The operation was d unmatchable early in the morning to attack the IRA unaware this was thought to lead British to victory for there were about ten British commanders for one IRA process. As the British tried to encircle the IRA, they were caught by surprise as the IRA was aware of the British plans and they attacked at the crossbarry roads which lead to having many British casualties.The IRA took British arms and set their vehicles on fire before they were attacked by otherwise British troops but did not succeed even after stiff fire fight and they all retired. Impact of British actions to IRA in bringing rest to Northern Ireland The IRA had structural plans that were governing them through their endeavors. It was evident that the republican were to remain anonymous to every one drop the members. No one could talk about the army and this made it hard to uncover the whole truth about the armys missions and their plans.As their rules had restricted them not to talk about the army in public, not discuss anything concerning the army with anyone, not to go in a company of a known member and not to frequent to the houses of a known member, and the top most issue was not to drink alcohol excessively as this would lead to loose rim and would reveal the republicans secrets. The army volunteers were made to believe that the army was legal and justified. They were taught that that was the nevertheless way to proclaim democracy in the whole Ireland.Commitment to the movement was legal and was the only way out to struggle for political justification and is a direct representative of the Dail Eirean parliament and by that was a legal and lawful government of the Irish republic and has right to pass law and to claim jurisdiction over the land, airspace, means of production all its people regardless of creed or loyalty. (Coogan, 1997) This wedged a negative attitude to the IRA members and the people of Ireland in an effort to bring peace.These beliefs made the British have difficulties in trying to restore peace in the country as they were regarded as intruders and were there for their own benefit. This is because the army had claimed to the sovereign government of Ireland and had all the rights to act in any capacity as a gov ernment. As the recruits were taught that British army, RUC, UDR and Gardai are occupying forces, were illegal and were completely unacceptable for that was morally wrong, ethnically inexcusable and politically unacceptable.Through the strengthening of these believes, the IRA members were completely opposite to the British armies in their efforts of any form in Ireland. (Hopkinson, 2003) IRA PREPARATION OF RECRUITS The IRA prepares their recruits in a distinctive manner. The recruits are taught on their importance to one another. This helps bonding together the recruits from different back grounds to strengthen the movement bond. As they are recruited they are motivated even they face harsh conditions should remain for the sake of their nation.The IRA is form of ethnic terrorist rendering to influence the Irish people to reject the British governance. As usual to the ethnic terrorist, according to Byman (1997) they seek to create fear among the rival groups or armies by performin g terrorist attacks and moderate movements. The recruitment of the army means entering in your total allegiance in life. This helps the movement to retain the recruited volunteers for they have to obey the commands and the rules set forth for the organization.The IRA recruits are forced to believe whatever allegation is put forward for them and purely follow the rules. The recruits are trained to persevere any form of hardship they face during their work as armies until they combat the target group. Nationalism is another force that was driving the recruits. They were from all corners of the country and were much concerned over fighting for their nation. This aspect had more power as far as recruits were concerned over the belief system.On the other hand, nationalism can also display the general characteristic of a belief system by providing the recruits with adequate information and arming their mind with an issue that they are to fight for their nation. (Hopkinson, 2003) Conclus ion IRA movement was determined in salvaging the Ireland from the hands of British rule. The British solders effort to combat the IRA guerilla were rendered fruitless for the IRA was always ready for the attack even though they were less in number compared to British solders.The IRA recruits were equipped in their minds that the movement was legal and morally right to fight the intruders whore were settled in the country for their own good. The IRA movement sought to influence to moderators and other ethnic groups to reject the British governance. They were to follow strict rules to ensure the safety and welfare of the movements.
