These songs by Dominic Behan are really fascinating and moving. Didn't know them for a while, but now i can't stop listining to Patriot Game and McAlpines Fusiliers ...
ok,so what you are saying is that the slaghter of those men women and children at the like of omagh , eniskillen and countless others is justified because 5 minutes before the thing whent off thay gave them a call to run the wrong way,those peeople died a awful death and politics nor religion justifies that.
Great song, I live in Canada and fell for the popular media b@#llsh&t about the IRA. Been investigating for myself for 5 years now. I have started to educate family, friends and neighbours as to the struggle and why. My great great grandfather came from Castlebar co. Mayo in 1842 and I dearly want to go there. The world is envious of the Isle, it's beauty and natural resources. It is not a religious war, it is an ongoing theft by the brits in power.
LOL wow mate you live in the clouds. It was a war of drugs and gangsters who killed for money and power. They did not give a hoot for any thing else. What about the Omagh Bombing?
The Provisional IRA did not engage in drugs....those who did ended up dead or crippled. I don't support any branch of the IRA but I will not let you twist history. As well as that, the Omagh bombing was carried out by RIRA...not PIRA.
What is happening to all the immigrants that come into Northern Ireland. Are they taking sides and joining the factions, or are they treated like shit by both sides?
the south has lots of prods too, it dosent matter, where all the same, there is no rsentment, it isent a religious war, thats only made up by britain to make our struggle seem unjust, its a war between invaded versus invader.
Why not ask the Orange orders of the republic ? They exist. and the last attack on an Orange hall was eight yrs ago so despite that Orange men in the Irish republic go about thier business. Also there are many prods in the republic not connected to loyalism who are treated with respect.
@Rbenson1979 Do you even know what the Irish flag means? Besides, the war isn't about religion, it's about politics, it's about race. There are protestant Republicans just like there are Catholic loyalists.
The O'Hanlon clan were also from Monaghan originally too.We probably had dealings with them. As well as the Maguire's,the O'Niells,and the O'Reilly clan.Anyway I love the song and I wish I to return to Ulster before I die.The McMahon's were driven out by the English because they refused to accept English rule.But they put up one hell of a fight before they lost their lands.
My family the McMahon's once ruled the ancient Irish kingdom of Oriel around Monaghan and Armagh. Controlled rather. Until the English drove us out for rebellion in 1648. I will return one day.
people like you make it so hard to be irish......giving in and forgeting the rape and beatings....hell the niggers in america cry it all the time and get what they want.....
We all love beautiful Ireland. Everyone thinks their Ireland is the finest. It's big enough for all of us to love. No-one owns it. Let's not be any longer be a blind and bitter land, because those who 'own' it are laughing at us. Ar, I'm being naive again.
Yes you are catbirdtree. As James Connolly said 'Britain has no right in Ireland, never had any right in Ireland and never can have any right in Irlenad, the presence in any one generation of Irishmen, ready to die to affirm that truth, makes that Government for ever a usurpation and a crime against human progress.
love this song. and also long live the I.R.A i hope that one day IRELAND will be free!!!!

Listen to With God on our Side by Dylan. It is a total ripiff of this song and Dylan never credited Behan.

As with all bombings the R.U.C. was given a warning but, because it would further the R.U.C. agenda, they did nothing.
Do you not see how the British take your natural resources, tax you and give nothing in return except their rules?
They are no different than any other major world power. They want it, they take it.
What good has ever come from the British for Irelands benefit?

Amen, and amen.
How can anyone, who thinks of himself as a man, show fealty to a thieving monarchy?
As per usual, there is a lot of revisionist history being practiced here.
Read for yourself, do the research. Make up your own mind.

No, what I'm saying is don't take the "official line" on anything as the hard and fast truth.
Let's not start fighting the War for Irish Independence here. There's plenty of stupidity and senseless violence, on all sides, to go around.
Oh, yeah... spell-check is free. ;)

***************IRISH PATRIOTS****************
1 in 7 people in Ireland are non-nationals. 400,000 legal immigrants and at least 200,000 illegal!
The only organisation that whants to put a limit on immigrants is the Immigration Controle Platform (I.C.P)
Look at the massive problems othere European countries are having because they are an insight to the future of Ireland!
Please support the I.C.P
