from our good friends at wikipedia:

"Between 1969 and 2001, 3,523 people were killed as a result of the Troubles.

Approximately 60% of the victims were killed by republicans, 30% by loyalists and 10% by the British, Irish and Northern Irish security forces."

Responsibility for killing

Responsible party (No.)
Republican Paramilitary Groups (2055)
Loyalist Paramilitary Groups (1020)
Security Forces (368 )
Persons unknown (80)


i'm pretty sure it's not the british army running guns, drugs and protection rackets and running around kneecapping people like common criminals in northern ireland now either but whatever makes you happy.
