Kevin P. Phillips argues that Northern Ireland's push for unification is flawed. He condemns Provisional IRA violence as self-defeating, notes Ireland’s long diaspora dynamics in England and Scotland, and urges Irish Americans to withhold support for what he calls gangsters masquerading as patriots. He cites 1922 British artillery actions, the 1960s onward Troubles, and economic risks of unity without strong safeguards.
