Northern Ireland's inspiring response to a new terrorist attack

We should be inspired by the collective Northern Irish political reaction to a new series of terrorist attacks in the British region.

Regardless of their views on the rights or wrongs of British control over Northern Ireland, all major politicians have come out in strong condemnation of what’s happened over the past few days. It’s relevant because on Monday, the Police Service of Northern Ireland conducted a controlled detonation of a suspected car bomb in Londonderry county. This follows a car bomb detonation outside a Derry courthouse on Saturday evening. Both vehicles were carjacked by suspected members of the New Irish Republican Army, a terrorist group opposed to the 1999 Good Friday peace agreement.
