[CommonPurpose1]

was this from a BBC doocumntry if so which one ?

[suppernoddypo2k7]

The title of Orange was after a French protestant bastion in the south of France.

[juultjuh99]

Lol their was certainly a succesor of William the Silent his name was Frederik Hendrik and was one of the most succesfull generals of the eighty years war.

[justicepartyuk]

Sectarian war in Ireland is over now it is criminal war. It took a taxi driver to negotiate peace in Ireland.

[TheOriginator100]

Emmanuel Van Meteren, who certainly knew Prince William wrote that "He was a well-built man,taller than the average,with a Brown Complexion and beard."

Everhard Van Reyd, who also most likely saw the Prince said that he had a "Brown Complexion"

But yet all the images that i've seen of him on this video show a pale skinned so called white man wuz up with that? (& remember so called "black people" are really different shades of brown i.e. he was "black")

[TheJROBBIE]

yes its almost 100 years before william 3rd who faught with rebel scum james

[proudtobedutch100]

[CosmosLoyal]

Some of the comments here are a damming indictment on the Roman Catholic Jesuit education system which still persists in these lands. Counter-revolutionary clowns.

[jmcmullan814]

[karlkarlkarl1234]

William the Taciturn. Assassinated by the Jesuits.

[MrStrictlyStock]

@karlkarlkarl1234 That was their only method of proselytisation. Pity the buggers didn't understand the dead can't contribute to the high lifestyle of the papist clergy.

[jdxv7]

[FENIANBHOYCFC4LIFE]

haha

[IndoAtheist]

elizabeth I had a really funny hair style lol...

[shgibby61981]

William ' The Silent' Prince of orange I found out recently is my 16th great Grandfather on my grandmas side of the family.

[Freshhhhh1982]

If you said who your relative was in some areas of my city, I would be very concerned for your life.

[BillDFC]

The William you are thinking of was killed when he fell from his horse when it tripped over a hole made by a mole!

[Freshhhhh1982]

He was a known homosexual.

[shgibby61981]

He must have been at the least bisexual considering william "The Silent" prince of orange is my 16th great grandfather.

[Freshhhhh1982]

Or just a closet case considering it was the 16th century.

[Choefoe]

What has Prince Willian of Orange who got killed in Dutch city Delft to do with Elizabeth of England, he was not married to her, that was an other William of Orange

[alphawolfoi]

Regardless of politics of us commenters the bastard narrator is obviously a "orangeman." They way he said catholic fanatic. so this video is nothing but a biased piece of crap trying to get people not to like catholics

[littlemisssunnydale]

Firstly the narrator is a well known atheist who is critical of Protestantism and Catholicism (along with other faiths like Islam). Secondly it seems that a number of people on this thread have not understood that the William of Orange discussed here is not William III of England. Instead the discussion here is on William, count of Nassau-Dillenburg, aka William the silent, who was involved in the Dutch revolt of the sixteenth century. So nothing to do with Ireland.

[giustin0]

Welcome to British history

All of it is filled with anti-Catholic attitudes

just look at the Bill of rights signed in the 17th century, it still effects modern day policies.

For example, no British monarch can be Catholic. Several kings were killed or had to advocate because of this rule.

[eiresuperbalzz]

@alphawolfoi protestants are catholic want to be'z? FUCK THE LOL (loyal orange order)

[david123451988]

orange cunt

[McDivers1875]

he died of pneumonia, what's this nonsense all about?

[Choefoe]

McDivers1875>This William was killed . It,s prince William of Orange 1, The founding father of the Netherlands, not William of Orange 3 king of England ;) that William was his grandson I believe ;) related anyway ;)

[BillDFC]

In 1688 William of Orange became William 1 of Great Britain,not William 111.

[Choefoe]

Don,t know who Willian 111 is But the first Prince William of Orange who got killed by Balthasar Gerard never became king of any country .This first William is burrissin the Dutch city of Delfts for 00 years, all the oranges are burried, all but one ;King william the first he,s burries in England,West Minsre Abbey. so Prince william of Orange the first is NOT the same person as King william the first ;-) The Dutch royals are not from his line but from his brother.Prince William had 1 son

[Choefoe]

bussisisin means, Burried in "too much typing today ; sorry

[Choefoe]

and 00 is 400 haha , well, the last ones burried next to William of Orange was our last Queen Juliana and her husband Bernardt and Baetrix husband Prince Claus. All the Oranges of Holland got burried in Delft

[Choefoe]

But his son got killed by the Hispanic before he got killed himself so the royal line passes on to his broher, I believe that is King William 1 or his son ;-)

[Choefoe]

Guess I understand the confusion, your king William the firts is our 3th William of Orange , he was the last king of Orange the next one is our crown prince Willem- Alexander, He will be King William of Orange the 4th ;-)

[Choefoe]

Al\LMOST right ,those oranges are very confusing, there are 2 william 3th. Got it now, haha King of Englanf Willian 3 1689-1702

Dutch king 3 1817-1890 , both are decents from prince William of Orange the first 1533-1584, King William one was only king in Holland 1772-1883 most confusing ;-)

[shgibby61981]

He actually died of Assasination

[imatim1888]

what did king billy,liberace,george michael,elton john all have in commen? lol

[KaaVap]

Why are so many revolutionary, quasi-communist Fenians making comments? This isn't about the usurper William who overthrew HRH King James II. It is an entirely different man.

[BillDFC]

King James V111 of Scotland abdicatin

[MrStrictlyStock]

@KaaVap Surely you don't expect a Taig to have that level of education?

[reSesson478]

King billy invented aids.

Some legacy

[Arai64]

Surely you have read the comments from your fellow Republican's in other Loyalist thread's?

[Arai64]

Moving swiftly on to today, (and following 9/11 making terrorism a dirty word), Messrs. McGuinness and Adams at least realized that republican violence had become ineffective, and unacceptable.

A democratic solution is indeed the only path toward a "united Ireland."

Although I suspect that many people of Eire, Garda Siochana, and perhaps even Tha Dail are sceptical, and perhaps happy with what they've got.

Nevertheless, if a Northern majority desire this, no-one should stand in their way!

[TomBarry192I]

Thats funny the ceasefire was in 1994 way before 9/11. The majority of people in the 26 counties support a united Ireland the polls time after time.

[Arai64]

Depends where one chooses to start history, Mr. Republican. We could start with the indigenious Irish furore upon the arrival of King Milesius's invading army - and demand anyone descendent from them be kicked out of Eire. But then that would be as ridiculous as demanding Protestants leave, as they've only been around for 400 years...

[TomBarry192I]

Who is demanding protestants leave??

[fuckthehuns1]

queen william of orange... fuck the wee poofy cunt

rest in piss... ya wee faggot

[Dofol]

Lol WTF is ure problem? U spaghetti eating dick!

[fuckthehuns1]

spaghetti eating dick? moi?

tiocfaidh ar la... fuck that gay midget, all i'm saying

FTQ... ya tulip eating prick

[Arai64]

I noticed your pope condemned gays in his 2008Christmas address to you and your kindred folk. Perhaps this bitterness and intolerance is borne of your canibalism? Consuming the bone, sinew, and flesh of Christ, and then washing it down with his blood - you dirty heathen!

[fuckthehuns1]

angry scottish protestants lol.... its so cliche haha ....love it

[TazOg1916]

irish republicanism was born in 1798 its leaders were protestants who did not trace their blood line to the irish geal infact no 1 race or faith or class united them only 3 beleifs that ireland should be governed by those voted 4 that religion is 1 thing and religion another that all are born equal...your religion obsessed crap means nothing 2 us we dont want rome or london in charge only the people!

[Arai64]

"we dont want rome or london in charge only the people!" - The people can not govern themselves, although they can vote for who governs them. The majority in Northern Ireland, (Catholic & Protestant), vote to be governed by London - it's called a democracy. Until this changes, The Government remains!

[TomBarry192I]

That gerrymandered border forced on Ireland by threat of a war is not democracy

[Arai64]

You're talking gibberish.

[TomBarry192I]

No im not. The treaty that divided Ireland was signed under a threat of war. That isnt democracy.

[Arai64]

The signing of The Anglo-Irish Treaty, actually marked the end of The 1919/21 Anglo-Irish War.

Following July 1921's truce between The IRA and Britian, a deal was eventually signed in December 1921.

There then followed The Irish Civil War, (initiated by the provisional government of The Irish Free State), to crush pro-Treaty support from its own people, (hardly a democratic move).

[TomBarry192I]

Yes the war had ended but during the talks Lloyd George issued a threat of an 'immediate and terrible war' if the treaty was rejected. Imagine europe threatened war over the Lisbon treaty?

This is slightly inaacurate, the Netherlands were never re-conquered by Spain. But it is ver interesting.

[untergang45]

This is not, of course the Willian of Orange who became King of England.
