The Irish People's Liberation Organization was an Irish Republican Socialist group in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. They split from the Irish National Liberation Army during a period of intense fueding within that organization and carried out armed attacks, mostly against INLA members, until October 1992, when most leadership was eliminated by the Provisional Irish Republican Army.[1]
