its the politics that failed, up came paramilitaries,vigilantes thugs and murderers extremists and their umberella groups from whichever 'side' atrocities were committed?religion breeds war
yeah let's let the banking system collapse like Iceland...that did them good.
We were doing fine during the boom and like everyone else we're suffering now. €196 a week for doing nothing...pretty close to socialism if you ask me, while up North it's like what...60 pound?
The IRA was originally protecting the Catholic population from Protestant forces. The Officials didn't give enough protection and so the Provos came about. Education brought about the Troubles. When Catholics had to oppurtunity to be educated through scholarship they realized they didnt have a fair deal and stood up for themselves. The Protestant state created the situation. Glad it's past all that now
Larry Flynt once said, I have no problem with majority rule as long as an individuals rights are protected, you can't have five wolves and one sheep deciding on what they're having for dinner. I think that sums up Northern Ireland.
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.)
A very good analogy! Without provisions to protect the minority from the majority, democracy quickly becomes impossible and is replaced by the "mob mentality." Plus the majority is not always right, when people "follow the herd" disaster can insue, this is what happened with fascism.
I think he was talking about it retrospectively, his general feeling at the time regarding the whole situation in the North. The threat he felt from the Nationalist community and the fact that he didnt distinguish between those who were campaigning for civil rights and those who were fighting for a united Ireland.
I wonder how the Chrisians of both sides in NI are going to rect when the find themselves faced with a Muslim majority like the rest of the UK is going to be dealing with very soon.
It's not about muslims, it's about freedom of Ireland. You don't understand the meaning of this conflict. Imagine that your country is occupied and devastated by people that know about their illegal presence and that they proud of it, just like the protestants did it. Watching this film I'm almost sure that they were in some way happy and proud (wich is horrible) form fact that the catholic part of society is living in povetry because of them. UP THE RA!
It may not be about Islam yet, but just wait....they'll be begging to have the Queen back when they're being forced to pray to Mecca.
And aren't the IRA socialists?
It's my understanding that Ireland has been invavded and re-invaded countless times throughout its history. Weren't the original inhabitants (Firbolgs) driven to Scotland by the Dal Raida (sp?)? The ancestors of the Spanish invaded too...and Ulster it seems has always wanted to do its own thing.
I'm not entirely sure what the IRA officially endorsed at all times, or the political bent of their members, but from what I've read, there was a socialist/Red underpinning to some of their political visions for Ireland.
And indeed, I'm afraid that when and if they ever face an enemy that considers it the highest honor to kill as many dimmi as possible w/ a suicide bombing, it will make the horror of the Troubles pale in comparison.
Fortunately, most of Islam stays clear of takhfiri wahhabism.
If you remove the English Army tomorrow and hoist the green flag over Dublin Castle., unless you set about the organization of the Socialist Republic your efforts will be in vain. England will still rule you. She would rule you through her capitalists, through her landlords, through her financiers, through the whole array of commercial and individualist institutions she has planted in this country and watered with the tears of our mothers and the blood of our martyrs
@RepublicOf32 What are you talking about? I know plenty of people who had land given to them, or their grandparents had in schemes to return the land to irish from english......I'm quite happy with the English model for making money, Just because it's English doesn't mean it's bad. All countries that have implemented this type of government are pretty rich and stable...meanwhite...Cuba, USSR, North Korea....need I go on?
We need to focus more on culture and language. Ireland is rich now
@RepublicOf32 Just because James Connolly was killed by the British in a cause that brought many different groups of the time together does not mean I or the majority of this population need to go along with everything he stood for.
A section of the population of the "American war machine" many times financed IRA arms.
Sanctions? Why did/does democracy have to go in those countries? People don't like socialism. If you work hard you should get more than the man who does nothing.
It has nothing to do with who said it, it's the truth of the matter. that being; england will still rule Ireland through banking cartels and such.
yes, it's a well known fact they supported the IRA, what has that got to do with anything? their country is still commiting terrorist atrocities in the middle east.
Socialism is democratic, you're talking about communism.
@RepublicOf32 Hard working people that set up their own companies and employ others will, if they lose their company tomorrow not get any dole, while lay about's that have done nothing other than get someone pregnany can get taken care of by the state and never have to work.
More should be given to those that want to succeed and those layabouts should not be given handouts...Ireland is already socialist from what I see.
You can't ram agendas down people's throats..everyone has a vote
Ireland is certainly not socialist, the republic is still controlled by england through their 'anglo-Irish' banking system which needs to be done away with.
The Offical IRA totally disbanded after their failed border campaign in the 50s and embraced political marxism. The only thing they were doing from then onwards was protesting fishing rights.
I'd love to see your proof about them training for a voilent offsenive.
