The Brits could leave & let the Loyalists & Nationalists go at it. But then the UN would have to assemble a peacekeeping force to save the Nationalists. The British Army is there as much for the protection of the Nationalists as the Loyalists. Without the British Army to maintain the peace, Ulster would have become like Lebanon. As bad as the troubles have been over the last 40-years it has never compared to Lebanon because the British Army was there.
