What worked:
Very little
What didn't:
Pretty much everything

Not meant to be humorous.  I have no idea how I would
have dealt with the problem.  But what the British
tried - not a success.

The problem is very different in Iraq, thankfully. 
The Ba'athists almost certainly have no popular
support, very much unlike the IRA.
