I think I'd expect a different reaction from mainstream Christianity if extremism, killing, terrorism, etc. began to be accepted more generally as proper Christian things to do. I don't think the two are really comparable.
The IRA was/is more a nationalist movement than a religious one, so I don't really think that's an on-point comparison.
