As for the rest, I was talking about the causes of the conflict, they were not religious, there was no doctrinal clash. You could have had the same conflict f all of Ireland was Catholic, or if Ulster was mainly Jewish or Hindu. The religious dividing line was based on ancestry. The IRA were not trying to spread Catholicism, nor the UDA Protestantism.
Similarly, had the Protestants not had such strong historical links to the "Mainland" hen the conflict probably wouldn't have happened, regardless or religion.
With ISIS they are motivated by religion. That is their driver, to spread Islam and Islamic law.
