Great video and very informative.What a great song powerful words.The road to freedom is paved with suffering, hardships, and torture , carry on my gallant and brave comrades until that certain day
Ah sure I'm remembering being a wee boy listening to all the good fenien music at my granies knee down the falls rd and I still carry that flame of freedom and a strong desire for social justice and I work for this in my daily life in far corners of the occupied countries where that filthy british rag was hoisted above the rightful peoples of the land. God bless the Wild Geese
Ireland will never be free until we rid ourselves of the hidden rulers! William of Orange had nothing to do with Protestantism, he was a European Banker. All the wars fought here were for control of land, the money supply and resources! Religion and politics and monopoly money are how these hidden rulers keep us as slaves.
Pitchcapping refers to a form of torture devised by British forces in 18th century Ireland which was widely used against suspected rebels during the period of the 1798 Rebellion, most famously on Anthony Perry, one of the leaders of the Wexford Rebels.
The process involved pouring hot pitch, or tar (mainly used at the time for lighting purposes), into a conical shaped paper "cap", which was forced onto a bound suspect's head and then allowed to cool. Less elaborate versions included smearing a cloth or piece of paper with pitch and pressing onto the head of the intended victim. The "pitchcap" was then torn off, taking lumps of skin and flesh with it which usually left the victim disfigured for life.
Sounds like the Brits my Grandmother described. Inbred monsters with hearts full of hate. But it looks like Ireland is having the last laugh, it's economy is one of the strongest in Europe while England stagnates away. I hope England doesn't decide to have a go at them again, there are just a few too many Americans of Irish descent who would 'object'.

The British Army has done far worse than that.
