Irish Rebel song - Michael Collins

[JoanBcollins]

He is supposed to be an ancestor of mine, but I have never looked it up

[sinnfein317]

War is hell, innocents on both sides of the line did die, as did brave men on both sides. However, to call the IRA terrorists and not call the brits the same is an injustice. The IRA much like my american fore fathers were and are freedom fighters attempting seperation from british influence as a whole.

The land was called norhtern ireland, not western england for a reason you know.

[veilchenschlachter]

Maybe a stupid question does the ira have a web page and do they recrut also men from other country that belive in their ideals

[NiklasZenius]

Don't know

[theDixieChick]

die haben sicherlich ne homepage, allerdings werden die dich nicht mehr rekrutieren, meister, weil die nämlich offiziell waffenstillstand haben. so weit alles klar?

Lg, das dixie chick

[unbekannt16]

ich bracuhe das für ein referat und ich weiß das die ira nicht mehr kämpft jedoch randgruppierungen.

[Bataran2]

well the IRA has put down their arms. and how can you believe terror is okay? the ira are terrorists. and they are cartholic..... they fight protestants.. do you realy think the killing of inocent people is okay?

[unbekannt16]

i just need the information for a presentation and killing is never ok but without victory there will never be peace killing will always be part of it

[theDixieChick]

what do you mean by "they are catholic"? it absolutely doesn't matter which religion they belong to. and by the way, the brits did kill some innocent people as well. and they are protestant. they killed catholics...

[obbjob112]

come on ? the british army is 40% catholic. religon doesn't matter, never did . the current ira are murdering criminals. torture and death are all they offer for those that oppose them. even this song is wrong, the handful of hero's in the post office were spat on by their irish friends and comrades

[theDixieChick]

i was referring to bataran2 who said the ira were catholics and they were terrorists. sure they are, i think everybody knows that, but the point is, that i wanted to show not only catholics are murdering protestants... it's the other way round as well!

[Bataran2]

well you have a point. i didn't make my self clear. sorry darling ;). i just got a lot against christianity. that's the what happens when you read the bible... yet i don't want to offend anyone!

[IrishHitman]

The current IRA and the IRA in this film are almost completely unrelated.

The Pro-treaty IRA became the leadership of the Free State Army, which later became the Irish Defence Forces.

The only reason that the Dubliners disapproved and "spat" at the Risers is because it resulted in the destruction of most of Dublin's Inner City...

If the IVF and ICA didn't have the artillery to destroy it, then who did it do you think?

[celticcore32]

think you will find its more british rule and government that we are fighting rather than protestant and inoccent people from both sides have been caught up in a war that has lasted over 800yrs.

[obbjob112]

wise up man?! i'm irish and i'm warning you they use people... they hurt people, they use your family and friends. they hurt your family and friends and eventually they will be your death. and that of your family and friends. you might be included in a song though! such privilage!

[IrishHitman]

They would if they still existed as a paramilitary force no doubt.

But why do you want to fight Brits for drug money, any sort of fleeting ideals fighting for Ireland went out the window after 1998..

[trabanlad]

Great site m8ty ;+)

[IrishMan752]

[NiklasZenius]

The name of the movie is just "Michael Collins". The scene is from the start of the movie.
