What was the enemy called in Iraq?

What are the groups invloved in Ireland religious conflict?
The Ulster Volounteer Force(U.V.F.), Ulster Defence Association(U.D.A.), Red Hand Command(R.H.C.), Ulster Resistance(U.R.), and others. All of those are exclusively Protestant and Loyalist/Unionist paramilitaries.There were never any Catholic paramilitaries of any signifagance whatsoever, although Republican paramilitaries like the Provisional I.R.A. were eighty-percent Catholic, fifteen-percent Protestant(the "Prod Squad" commanded P.I.R.A. for years in Belfast), and five-percent "other"; other Republican paramilitaries like the Irish National Liberization Organisation were about sixty-percent Protestant, perhaps because it was founded by a Protestant, Ronnie Bunting, son of a Loyalist/Unionist British Army Major.These Loyalist/Unionist/Prodestant paramilitaries claim to target Republican rebels, but 89% of death's contributed to them are civilians, usually Catholic, and they've only killed fifteen Republican rebels.They have killed more of each other and their allies than anyone else.They have been given arms, training, money, and support by British Forces-soldiers and Royal Ulster Constabulary members.Members of the Royal Ulster Constabulary have been convicted of co-operation with these paramilitaries, and even membership, as have soldiers in the British Forces.In the Miami Showband Massacre, British reserve-soldiers(Ulster Defence Regiment) were involved in planting the bomb, despite the Miami Showband being both Catholic and Protestant.One of the British Forces-soldiers involved in the massacre was Special Air Service(S.A.S.) Provisional I.R.A. informer, Robert Niarac.When the Provisional I.R.A. discovered this, they tortured Nairac to death by scalping and disembowlment, before grinding him up and feeding him to dogs.In a British government report into corruption in the British Forces, it found that atleast fifteen-percent percent of Ulster Defence Regiment-soldiers were also in Loyalist-paramilitaries, and described the Loyalists as "a loose assortment of drug-dealing, sectarian, criminal, thugs, who have no political objective".The S.A.S. kept watch while these paramilitaries attacked Bernadette Devlin-McAliskey, a civil-rights campaigner.The U.V.F. was formed in 1966 and their first attack was the killing of a seventy-seven-year-old woman, who was set on fire in bed, just because she was a Catholic.If you are refering to The Troubles when you say "Ireland religious conflict", that was not a religious conflict whatsoever, although the media portrays it as one.
Did the republicans or the loyalists want a united Ireland?
Republicans did and still do want a United Ireland. Loyalists want Northern Ireland controlled by the British. They also want Britain to re-invade the Republic, and all Loyalist paramilitaries are anti-Catholic, but this is separate to Loyalism, although the two go hand-in-hand.
What are US actions against the Irish Republican Army?
No military actions. The US has extradited persons wanted for activities committed in association with both Republican and Loyalist paramilitaries to the United Kingdom, and required NORAID to register the Irish Republican Army as its foreign principle under the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938, although NORAID is permitted to counter this with a disclaimer denying any affiliation with the IRA.
Why did the Irish Republican Army form?
The reasons there was terrorism in Ireland are long and complex and can be traced back through over 800 years of Irish history. In short, Ireland was under British rule and wanted independence and in 1922 most, though not all, of Ireland got independence. The part that remained under British still wanted independence and some there resorted to violence to achieve that and others there who wanted to stay under British rule also resorted to violence. Between 1969 and 1994 in particular, there was a lot of violence, but a peace process was started and the terrorism stopped and since the signing of what is known as the Good Friday Agreement in 1998, things have been much more peaceful.

Why there has not been a Comprehensive Convention on international terrorism?
There have been several UN Resolutions designating certain groups as terrorist entities as well as a number of European Union and NATO designations of terrorist organizations. However, the lack of a convention on terrorism comes from the fact that any proposed definition would likely impugn paramilitaries of one stripe or another and alienate the world power supporting those paramilitaries.
