The US-based Friends of Sinn Fein and Northern Aid often do the exact
opposite of what Sinn Fein itself does.  I remember a few years ago a
senior Noraid member was advocating that Mumia needing a good lynching (SF
itself is on record as supporting Mumia).

Then again, as much as SF has moved toward the right in recent years,
they're still hard left in comparison to most of their US supporters.
