The Ulster Troubles (Part 2 of 24)

[TheLoyalhuman]

is this the last british colony yet to be free? Do as we did, eat them. They never came back (tonga - yet to be colonised)

[fitzy545]

british scum

[cinesimonj]

The Black and Tans remind me of the IDF.

[bobslay12]

Ireland will soon rejoin the UK as they cant even handle there own country and never could.

[ThePromethianspark]

@bobslay12 That's the daftest thing I ever read! lol

[TONYSPURSMAN]

@bobslay12 fuck you

[DukeofUSA]

@gbv79 this religious violence seems irrational to me, a Catholic American. I geuss I can't understand.

[ohno2112]

The only one that can beat the black n tans was cromwell & the potato famine. We don't forget !

[bobslay12]

@ohno2112

how old are you?

[ThePromethianspark]

@ohno2112 That very statement is a testament to the hatred your raised in. I don't how you can declare such believes globally on the internet without shame! Oh wait, I do: anonymity

[gbvb79]

Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Canada... quite a few moderately minded democratic countries now live peacefully with both Catholic and Protestant Christianity, last time I checked they weren't blowing each other up over it at any rate.

[CelticCanuck4]

@gbvb79

good point. I am the son of an Irish Catholic and a Scots Orangemen.

Makes for a great thanksgivivng.

[burnthebrits]

@gbvb79 the last time i checked them countrys are free and not ruled by the english government and in my part we live together with out any problems at all its the fact that they hold on to the top of my country because they think they are still great Britain that went out the window after ww2 they should return our country and there would be no need for the IRA how long does it take for them cunt to realize it

[gbvb79]

@burnthebrits I understand your point of view. On the positive, it is fair to say Ireland rates quite highly on the 'freedom' scale comparative to many other nations in the world. I watched a 2010 documentary on Irish folk travelling up to Belfast to do their grocery shopping because it was much cheaper to do so. Always good to look at the sunny side of things dont you think? On a more serious note, I do think Ireland has to unify (peacefully) in the long run but it will take some time.

[gbvb79]

Does Catholic and Protestant religion have any say in politics in Ireland in the modern age? Isn't it the 'golden rule' that government and politics should be kept quite separate. I don't understand why there can't be a United Ireland in which both religious sects co-exist. These religions co-exist quite happily in other parts of the world.

[tommystros]

@gbvb79 like where

[alankat1690]

@gbvb79 its nothing to do with religion persay. its all political, it just so happens that the political divide happens to fall on religious lines ie protestants on the wole are unionist/loyalist and catholics on the whole are nationalist/republican. The fact that the republican movement was started by protestants should show that its not a religious conflict. unfortunately i cant really expand on my point due to the character limit

[folwert]

@alankat1690 God save a catholic God damn a REBEL basically right mate lol

[alankat1690]

@folwert aye thts a good way of puttin it. got nothing agaisnt those from catholic areas but if they want to destroy my country thats a diff story

[MrPhilk77]

When a country is invaded for no other reason but greed and there government is no longer, there is no such thing as an army for the country i.e French resistance and many others, calling the Ira terrorists is far from the truth. Terrorists are people who will attack people because there beliefs are different to others and they see it no other way. To defend your country your rights and your family against those who attack you with out cause is not terrorism! Law is you can defend yourself

[mistajacob100]

UDA

[MrGetthefunkout]

@mistajacob100  are faggots

[sinwow33]

The only way you can unite Ireland now is to have a referendum in both the north and south. YOu can only unite Ireland if both south and north vote for it. If the people in both parts want a united Ireland then any unionist/loyalist who does not want to be part of a united ireland should be allowed to leave and come to Britain if they so chose.

[TraceyMariexx]

Jeez just learn to live in peace will you.. its only land your life is more important surely.. How many more people have to die for this great country you called Ireland. Does it not disgust you that many lost their lives over this and will remain to do so.. Because it does me :(

[cinesimonj]

@TraceyMariexx "It's only land".

That's a pathetically ignorant statement.

They were fighting also for Democracy, against extreme oppression, torture, the deliberate starvation of the population, and much more.

What you also obviously never bothered to discover was that back then, those with land had many more votes than those without. Many, many more votes.  This was true in Nthn Ireland even up to the 70s & early 1980s.

I'm sure the Brits are very happy that such ignorance is still rampant.

[MrFlangey69]

uvf

[patsyd80]

dam rebs. to hell or conought.

[unimployed]

folwert wtf r u on about that makes no sence Say what you think but dont chat utter shit

[Bellocks1]

When was this documentary made?

[calBHA1]

there will be complete pease in belfast when its part of united ireland.

the day will come, the prods will fall

[billsurlatete]

you must be really stupid. you dont have any forsight. you cant even spell peace. do you really think the village on tates avenue would be peaceful after becoming part of ireland. "the prods will fall" you do realise that the majority of northern ireland is protestant. just look at the most recent concensus. you do realise we have democracy and 80% of protestants will vote for DUP. which means senior government will always be made up of protestants with unionist commitments. fuck you are stupid

[folwert]

Good i hope there is a utd. IRELAND i would love to shoot irish soldiers trying to enforce a utd. ireland show the irish how it feels to lose soldiers.

[Sirknight1797]

You keep banging on about Freedom. Freedom from what?

[TheTollundWoman]

Freedom from British rule.

Freedom from sectarian discrimination.

Freedom from fear (ever heard of the UVF?)

[billsurlatete]

freedom from british rule. obviously. freedom from sectarian discrimination (this only exists in the drains of our society) freedom from fear the uvf (a bunch of drug dealers driving about 96 bmw 3 series's)

please you can romanticise your "struggle", but i am a republican catholic and i have never had trouble getting jobs in Belfast, and generally never been treated badly by people of the opposite religion.

[Scoob505]

One day. One day, we will be One. One Island and country. We will be Irish.

[Sirknight1797]

We are Irish but we have a British Identity. Sorry chum there will never be a United Ireland. Power Sharing is teh only way forward!

[Scoob505]

Britian in Ireland is a forgien occupation and always has been. The people of Ireland should never have been segregated and split by an invading army. Britain created secterism and conflict on the island of Ireland, the people of Ireland lived as one for centuries before an invading British Army came and planted their settlers mainly in the North, which is why the majority of unionists are in the North, and why the 6 occupied counties where partitioned from the rest of the Country.

[ourdaywillcome85]

Well said mate, it disgusts me seeing the union jack flying in Ireland.  Our day will come, and it will be one of the, if not, the greatest day in Irelands history. Get out britain, your illegal occupation must end.

[Scoob505]

It must come by peace though. We don't want another troubles after Ireland is united.

[Scoob505]

Integration of the two contrasting communities north and south of the border would establish a stronger foundation for peace and stability. Irish traditions are lost on the unionist community in Ulster and by having a united Ireland they could integrate more in Irish culture.

[billsurlatete]

most unionsts want nothing of irish culture.

[Flipper79able]

Its the truth... they are some of the biggest bigots I have ever met.

[billsurlatete]

most of the unionists i know are not biggoted. patriotic would be the term, in a very defensive rather than proud way.

[Flipper79able]

Yes, but their way of being defensive is to ignore the past, say we have never done anything wrong, attack the other side and innocent people, and want to continue to rule the country without any lip from the other side. You think after god knows how many years of ruling the Irish they would be at least a little apologetic.

[billsurlatete]

i agree, its complete dis-regard for history. i think alot of unionst dont actually know anything about irish history, irish history is taught very subtly in school as to avoid confrontation. people also dont like being born "in the wrong", 99% of unionst only live here because they were born here, they feel every bit entitled to the country as you or I do. its really understandable.

[Flipper79able]

I have sympathy, which is more than I can say for them. I live in the U.S. were I think the way Native Americans were treated was horrific. Most white Americans would agree. Why are they incapable of saying "You know what...I think maybe what we did to the Irish was wrong"? Why can't they do that?

[billsurlatete]

well because, they dont understand the history. and the statement isn't even correct "what we did". anyone who was in any way involved with the way the british treated the irish are long dead. the unionists in northern ireland are irish, and have been for generations. unionsts are just irish people loyal to the queen of england. im a republican that comes from a protestant (unionist) family. but both sides of my family have been irish for 100s of years.

[Flipper79able]

What you say is true. I have been coming to Ulster since I was a kid because I was born there and now live in America, and I have not heard of many Protestant Republicans....but I fully support it. That is why Ireland has the Tricolor. I know about Wolf Tone (Sorry about spelling) but are there many Protestant Republicans? Like I said..I think there is a lot of paranoia about a Dublin Government coming from unionists...but I believe they would be treated fairly.

[billsurlatete]

I dont think thereis many people who would call themselves Protestant republicans. i certainly know alot of protestants who would call themselves republican sympathisers, which means that they understand what the irish have gone through and their point of view. - they just want to be british, because they were brought up british, and thats what feels normal for them. at any rate a united ireland isnt economically viable and hasn't been for 20 years.

[Flipper79able]

You know, I have to say, you are one of the few Protestants that I have talked to that has made complete sense. I hope that doesn't offend you. You tell me there are more though, and I believe you. I have new found respect for those in Ulster that are Protestants. There is nothing wrong with being proud to be British as long as you acknowledge the past and what happened. I also agree that what makes sense economically is probably what matters the most, in the end.

[Scoob505]

Britain has on several occasions stated that it no longer requires Northern Ireland for strategic reasons.

[Scoob505]

Two Ireland's was Only ment to be Temporary The British Should just keep to the Agreement and Give Ireland {north/south} its Complete Freedom or Else Give the North of Ireland a Better Choose than at Present {federalism , confederalism , unitary state } because at present our Powers are Smaller than even Scotland {Which is in Great Britain} or else Soon i can see a War more worse than the Troubles Ever where for Irish Indepedence we Deserve are Freedom as Much as the South or The United States .

[billsurlatete]

but although that was the temporary solution at the time, it did put britain into a terrible perdicament. northern ireland having such a large unionst majority, could not possibly be seperated from UK. there has never been a country to break away from the kingdom without the will of the people. not existing in northern ireland because of a unionist majority, all be it that majority is far less now.

[mairia1]

mairia is aimn dom, will I get a bullet for saying that?

[AlexandraSmothers]

Brutal! Do they remember why they're fighting? Is all the senseless violence really worth it? Reminds me a lot of the Holy Land, and for the irish, it is i suppose. Every nation wants soveriegnty. I'm interested. I'll go back and watch the first one...

[Lachausis]

Of course the Irish deserved an independent Irish state. There is no doubt about that.

[MrJojo1690]

@Lachausis u got 26 counties why do u want the other 6? don't come the cunt ulster is free ya madman

[MrLeggy11]

@MrJojo1690 how is it free when it is occupied by british

[bobslay12]

@Lachausis

I doubt that

[T7M7C]

Down the I.R.A!!!!!!!!!!!

[AzoreanProud]

More one Example of the problems with Religion.

[atrueirishman]

don't blame religion. if it wasn't religion it's be colour, football teams, racism. it's not religions fault.

the only way there'll ever be a united Ireland is if people vote for it DEMOCRATICALLY. BULLYING AND BOMBING people to your point of view hasn't worked as Adams & Co found out after 3000+ needless deaths.

(please copy and paste this onto every IRA, RIRA, CIRA, INLA page on youtube. Educate the world.)

[AzoreanProud]

Ofcourse not, but Religion really does a big part. I mean the use of Religion...the church its only a instituition that says represent Religion, and in reality mix all over and that people end all mix over too.

Dogmas, division, conflict, war.

[VinnyMancini]

A Fascist dicatorship could help, the way Mussolini did to the Mafia. Round up all the suspected members and jail them...bring back internment

[dogegg2]

A true Irish man? Hang your head in shame you scumbag!

[Poopookachew1]

"Its strange how the actions of the black and tans reminds me of the zionist regime"

Well, I suppose the difference being that the Irish never had a German dictator destroy several million of their people. Nor was the Irish evicted from their own land for several centuries. Apart from the UK, who wages pogroms or jihad against the Irish?

Besides the historic precedence for Israel being Israel, and the Nazi connection that the Palestinian mufti had - that's why I think the UN made their choice.

[jackrc25]

get rid af the fukin border

[timpatjoe]

cool music good for the mood of the time

[sunnysuff]

100 years on still no united ireland,

[cannofbliss]

this is a great documentary,thanks for posting.

[surfshaman]

I am from America and educating myself on the Irish / English struggle. I want to ask the citizens of Europe what they think of the war in Iraq and the USA's goverment in the world. Please, post real comments not just hate, I want your opinion. Thank You

[johnangelo75]

hey man I can give you an honest comment...The US repeated the very same mistake that the British made in Ireland....the harder you are on the local people..eg civilians being accidentally killed,arresting people,treating em bad...only intensifies the hatred has for the other side and causes groups to grow...I think Iraq is more complex than Ireland...I think Iraq people want the US out and can be compared to the IRA but it has become a breeding ground for foreign terrorist groups.

[dogegg2]

Asbsolutely well said mate! I have said this about Iraq for a long time. FFS do people not think about were the "terrorists" come from? Bloody Sunday was the biggest recruitment drive the IRA could have wished for!

[sonnydukes]

why did the ulsters give their alegence to britian??and why did they not want a united free ireland...i am confused...i am asking a real question...

[johnangelo75]

the ulsters as you call em were made up of 2 peoples...the irish catholics who wanted independence and the protestant loyalist who were scotish and english decent...therefore the loyalist considered themselfs british.

[IrishPatriarch]

That wont work mohanicus...We are going to get Ulster back soon due to the fact of abortion. We catholics actually have morals and dont believe in abortion or a day of fun unlike the British.

[TomBarry192I]

The unionists are also against abortion, they cry that they want to be treated as equals lke rest of uk, abortion laws set to pass here they cry they shoudlnt be treated like rest of uk. They stop policing and justice laws being devolved here which could stop these laws but backwards unionists wont allow these powers!! they are lost.

[VanDoodah]

Abortion was legalised in 1967. The Northern Irish government didn't even bother to debate it, and that's why it's still illegal in Northern Ireland. Also, Unionists don't have to agree with every law Westminster passes.

[TomBarry192I]

Its still illegal because no wants mass genocide of innocents here. Stick your foreign law

[VanDoodah]

What the hell are you on? You seriously are one of the bitterest people I have ever come across. You criticise Northern Ireland for not legalising abortion and then you call abortion "genocide".

Your arguments are as sensible and coherent as ever. Well done.

[TomBarry192I]

I never critised the north for not legalising abortion! i critised unionists for wanting to be treated like rest of uk but not accepting the laws. They have more in common with us and they know it

[VanDoodah]

Northern Ireland had its own government, which most Northern Irish people didn't want (they wanted to be ruled from Westminster.) To say that they demanded to be treated differently is wrong. They were given a form of home rule against their wishes.

[TomBarry192I]

They always demand to be treated like you over there. Unless they disagree with the law then they cry about it. Independence is a wonderful thing

[VanDoodah]

Again - why should Unionists have to agree with every law Westminster passes? Why can't they oppose it? Why is it okay for the Conservatives to oppose a bill but not the DUP? Is geography all that matters to you?

[TomBarry192I]

Lowering the age of consent to 16 here was another one. All of ireland it is 17. But they agree with the rest of us not the westminster farce. They can oppose if they like but they should stop saying they should be treated no differently than you over there across the sea

[VanDoodah]

They are not demanding to be treated differently. They are entitled to oppose laws that they believe promote or enable immoral behaviour, regardless of my personal stance on abortion and consensual sex at the age of sixteen. They have never asked to be given special treatment, preferential or otherwise.

[TomBarry192I]

They do ask for a lot of veto's. The orange card!

[oooooomaly]

across the pond?... the age of consent in Canada is 19. that means an Irishman is better than a Canadian?,... now I'm pissed off, lol...

[mohanicus]

fuck the north.

just blow off the prody area and push it of into the sea.

fuckin redcoat traitors.

[lutonloyal]

Hang IRA scum, your day will never come.

Fuck the RA

[senseistuart]

blah we beat your so called special forces or british commandos who found great passion in shooting children in the back running away from them. so yea our day will come

[NothingIsCorrect]

what's spike milligan doing at 04:50??? Still funny and he's dead! Comic genius

[k93j64]

fuck the british leave ireland, this is why my grandpa fled frmo Donegal, he was scared from these bastards.

[32provo]

bonham is an english prick. how can you disagree withe evidence like that..presented by a brit at that!!

[bonham2112]

Firstly please read the comments very carefully before replying. I am a HALF irish and HALF english prick!!! lets get that straight. and secondly an eye for eye and tooth for a tooth mentality can never work and will never work........who told me that!!!!...........my catholic mother who felt she needed to leave ireland for her own safety......from her own kind. How sad.

[swisscottagelondon]

i'm english - we should give ireland back - and you should be hung from the mid-arm as traitor

[dogegg2]

your mother fled for fear of her safety...from her own kind?? i very much doubt that, it was more likely she feared "the other side" If it wasn't for the freedom fighters catholics would still be second class citizens in their own country. Ask your ma about the civil rights movement ffs

[northbelfast1]

From 1966-1999 the troubles in Ulster have cost the lives of 3636 people, 2139 killed by Republicans, 1050 by Unionists and the remainder by the RUC and the Army. The Provisional IRA were personal responsible for 1771, 48.7%, 636 of this number being innocent civilians.

[masterriktor]

i think its important that people see this stuff to make an educated decision, i know so many people who take sides without knowing why

[gtp77]

It is not a civil war, because that would imply that Ireland is fighting itself. That may be the case most bluntly and literally, but the IRA were/are merely defending and repelling invaders.

[hissmugness]

Of course this was a civil war. Collins negotiated the partition and de Valera did not like the result. Collins was assassinated. Do some Googling and even check out the BBC websites.

[derryhawk]

The British raped the World...It is a fact, and Bristol was built on the slave trade.People oppressed in Ireland, went to the America,inflicted like treatment on Native Americans. Videos is good.Folk need to know; but not to feed bitterness. No! To see how it can be left behind. Nothing is solved by denial. I live in Ireland, and the people are great. Come and see. Visit Derry.Stay off politics. If you don't live here, you do not know what you are talking about.

[ihateyoudick]

to say you should stay off politics if you dont live in derry is wrong poeple should be allowed to express their view and if its wrong educate them get off your high horse! just because you live in derry dosent mean your better than any one else ireland has suffered as a whole, and what has lead us through history to partition is people like you to eager to bicker with their own irish rather than to unite.

[johnnymanu]

Things were being done in Ireland which would disgrace the blackest annuls of the lowest despotisms in Europe...how true Asquith was

[johnnymanu]

I am half Irish half english and if I had to choose between the two I would take Irish any day..The british raped Ireland and were the cause of sectarianism in the first place..if it wasnt for the IRA the british would still be there now imposing their will on the Irish..Lets hope the peace lasts forever...

[willyrobinson]

Irish are of the same stock as English - both are Britons of the British Isles. It was in fact the English - under King Henry 1150's who brought Romanism to Ireland. Is your entire education on this subject from hollywood - good Lord son.

[pillarstone]

Stock and bloodline arguments are irrelevant. The matter is cultural and it is about the alliance to a particular culture or emblem/belief system and/or power base - hence the many "English" surnames on the Nationalist side and the Gaelic on the Unionist. This need for people to be of certain stock and DNA to call themselves Irish, English, whatever is crap. But I do hate the term "British Isles" & we are certainly not Britons! We're as similar to you as the Swiss as to Germans-think about it!

[Cionaodh57]

There is very little difference between the Irish and Scots, and between the Irish and the Welsh, Angle/Saxon, Briton, Cornishman, and others. On one level, it is a struggle between two peoples of almost identical genetic characteristics. On another it is a struggle about who will control the land, just as when the exiled King of Leinster sought aid from Norman forces in Wales.

[dogegg2]

wrong way round mate, its Gaelic surnames on the Nationalist side and English surnames on the Unionist.

[VanDoodah]

The Irish are not descended from Britons. I think what you mean is that the Irish are primarily descended from the same Paleolithic Iberians as the English, Scots and Welsh. The Britons only became what we would call Britons once that particular culture emerged, just as the Irish only became Gaels when that particular culture emerged (whether it was through Celtic invasion or linguistic development from an earlier culture/language.)

[rosstrichranger]

what a load of shite you talk i am from ireland the north, you who you mention are scum they kiled for the joy of it. they stayed out of two wars when the world fought!I wish the brits have had waged war on the ira instead of keeping to the rules!!it would have been so different. The ira are child kilers murderers and scum!!

[muilleangearr]

You seem to be outnumbered in that opinion a Chara

[bonham2112]

I myself am half irish and half english and if i were to be given a choice i wouldn't wish to be either!!!.............I am ashamed to be historically linked to such a murderous bunch of satanic filth!!!!..............I'll be glad when my time is up so i get out of this effing cess pit that you call home!!!

[DCP200]

bonham2112,read some history chara ,the english took over IRELAND killing irish people were ever they could find them ,fact,so go & find yourself lad ,the english are the murderous bunch ,look it up chara .

[darinnn]

how many brittish living in ireland and have they mixed themsels whit the irish

[AnimeTalk]

my roots are ulster and im proud to say we have a seprate culture from either the brits or the irish, and we are just as irish as thoese two

[napalm69]

People have got to realise that no side has the monopoly on suffering and hurt. Both sides have commited atrocities, both sides have been victims. No side can claim to be the innocent community. This island does not belong to one race, religion, creed or political allegiance. Eveyone who lives here has the right to do so. People from outside of ireland tend to get their information from propaganda fed to them from one side or the other. People that live here should know better.

[neoprene1970]

I`ve lived in Glasgow, Dublin , London and Belfast. People are people wherever u go..and there are fair and bigoted people in all cities. UlstersHistory.. dont u realise you`re just a product of 400 years of political brainwashing and social engineering by the british government ?

[browningfusion]

facts do not cease because they are ignored...the ability to accept responsability is the measure of man. if the british government were real MEN they would accept the fact that they are murdering scum and the actions of thier beloved army reflects this.."the man that loses his conscience has nothing left that is worth keeping" (Izaak walton). Has the british government a concsience???

[machieaveli]

It's when you watch the first minute of this film, with the squalid and distraught housing areas and army patrols that you realise fully that Britain had a civil war on it's hands for over thirty years. It's surprising the period is not remembered much now, it seems such a terrible and yet incredible time, which I must say I was too young to witness.

[irishgalinga]

Quote from speech of Lt. Col. Smyth, June 17, 1920

"If a police barracks is burned or if the barracks already occupied is not "suitable",then the best house in the locality is to be commandeered, the occupants thrown out into the gutter. Let them die there,the more the merrier.I assure you no man will get into trouble for shooting any man....

This is the Black and Tan Idea of policing Ireland. They were merely unemployed vets from WWI, and had no constabulary training.

[browningfusion]

finaly a man with wisdom!!we need more like you to keep these loyalist pricks from making stupid comments that have been drummed into thier heads!!!

[FearAndLoathingInDub]

The conquest of Ireland really was one of England's biggest mistakes.

[thehun666]

worse:)

[thehun666]

I seen another doc,were the Fire Brigade from Dublin went down to Cork to help with the fires.The then serving Dublin Fire Brigade,said that Cork was in worst condition than Dublin was-during the 1916 rebellion.Due to the Tan's rampage///

[vintagekits]

fuckin britsh chunts

[TehCheese]

Black and tan scum! They never targeted people who they thought were IRA or IRA supported, they just targeted people.

[taszim]

hmm... I had found some..."interesting" quotes from the commander of the black and tans... basically he told his troops while training that he wants them to shoot anyone they like, and the more people they kill - Civilian or IRA - the more he will like them....

[gunner1873]

of course you did.

Well it made sense to partition.Pity the Catholics didnt move South where they belonged.

[taszim]

made sense? jesus christ man! do you know what you are saying!? omg I have lost all respect for you.

[gunner1873]

"All I boast is that we are a Protestant Parliament and Protestant State"

Viscount Craigavon

1st Prime Minister of Northern Ireland (in response to his Southern counterpart Éamon de Valera's assertion that Ireland was a "Catholic nation")

[taicelt]

why should we---why didn,t the prods ship out to england--by the way they would have been considered paddys there the same as every other irishman SAD

[ewelmcc]

why didnt the prods ship out to england, lmao ya nae know the irish, home is home no place sweeter , god bless Ireland for all , peace

[gunner1873]

You are mixing apples and oranges for your own argument.The people of Ulster whom are Protestant are a mix of Scots, Eng, Dutch etc.. That is there home where they settled.

I guess the same can be applied globally then.why dont all(Catholics) Irish ship out of Scotland back to Ireland,Irish ship out of America, The Portugese out of Brazil, The "Spanish" out of all of South america..all non "native" nations back where they came from?That would also include the "Irish" from Ireland

[ebeneezzer]

People of Ulster had absolutley no problem calling themselves Irish prior to partition, and later before the troubles started in the late 60s.

When the so called Ulster Scots went to America they idntified themselves as Irish.

Nobody was or is asking them to leave Ulster.

[mrdrawde]

Excellent
