No, first off the Thirty Year War was fought in central Europe and it started as a fight between protestants, mostly Calvinists and the Church but degraded into a war between France and the Hapsburgs who ruled the Holy Roman Empire, and both France and the Hapsburgs were Catholic. In Ireland, after the vicious suppression of Elizabeth I and there are no words to describe the horror under Cromwell, Catholics were completely disenfranchised, their property and livelihood was stolen from them by the English and they were forbidden to even speak their own language much less worship God. As horrible and dreadful as it all was, it had nothing to do with the Thirty Years War, and the Catholics were in no position to "fight" for control, they were just trying to survive.

How did people in northern Ireland respond to the introduction of internment in1971?

The Protestants in Northern Ireland didn't mind much as hardly any Protestants were arrested. Internment was entirely biased and one-sided, with 98% of all those arrested Catholics. Catholic were 100% opposed to internment and fierce rioting swept the country as British soldier arrived to arrest people. The Catholics were generally mistreated during their arrests and so internment was not popular among Northern Irish Catholics. Some people who were interned are still bitter about it to this day.
