Where can we find a Irish pub in Belfast that has Irish music?

Q. Coming home after 48 yrs to visit from the States..get enough rock here..I want to hear traditional Irish music!

A. Go to THE CROWN in downtown, there is also a pub next to that one that plays irish music some days, look in that area, they are all in front of the Europa Hotel, that's downtown, you can't go wrong

What was Bill Clinton's role in the Good Friday Agreement of Northern Ireland?
Q. Did he offer them money if the IRA declared a ceasefire? Thank you (:

A. No, there was no financial gain.

However, Clinton's administration heavily supported the Good Friday Agreement while at the same time refraining from taking sides and submitting to bias, which may Northern Irish people are appreciative of, since many Americans blindly support Nationalism in Northern Ireland without assessing the whole situation (including the matter of the terrorist groups, e.g. the IRA).

Some American sources say he fronted the agreement. We do afterall like to affectionatley attribute the USA to a determination to take claim for as much as possible (claiming they invented the car etc..). This is, however, untrue. Tony Blair's Labour Party government fronted it along with the Northern Ireland parties.

He has since visted Northern Ireland, staying in the Europa Hotel in Belfast, to show support for continued peace. Hilary Clinton has also showed similiar support.

Is there a hotel in Europe that has been subject to terrorist attacks?
Q. I need this info for a course work. thanks

A. The Europa Hotel in Belfast...once known as the most bombed hotel in the world during the IRA conflicts..plenty of info about it on the net
