About Israel Out!! Save Gaza and the Muslim way of life

Live and let live. People have used violence to get there way since the dawn of mankind, and where has it gotten us?

War is merely terrorism with a larger budget, regardless of what others say.

Go green. For the first time in 30 years carbon emissions are down in the Eu (largely because of the economic situation.) We must act now...Stop China and the USA from destroying our planet.

This channel is open for comments on a wide range of issues, but racism and insults will not be tolerated, and therefore deleted.

Vote no to the Lisbon Treaty.
The global depression is merely the result of poor oversight and greedy businessman.

The average man does not want to be free. He simply wants to be safe. - H.L. Mencken

So long as the people do not care to exercise their freedom, those who wish to tyrannize will do so; for tyrants are active and ardent, and will devote themselves in the name of any number of gods, religious and otherwise, to put shackles upon sleeping men. -Voltaire

While the State exists, there can be no freedom. When there is freedom there will be no State. -Lenin

What is a rebel? A man who says no. -Alber Camus

Loyalty to a petrified opinion never yet broke a chain or freed a human soul. -Mark Twain

War is merely terrorism with a larger budget

The ratification of the Anglo-Irish Treaty by the Dáil in December 1921 by a vote of 64 - 57 began our modern era a a free, sovereign, "Republic" of Ireland. The minority refused to accept the result and led to the beginnings of the Irish Civil War, which lasted until 1923. In 1922, in the middle of this civil war, the Irish Free State came into being. During its early years the new state was governed by the victors of the Civil War. However, in the 1930s Fianna Fáil, the party of the opponents of the treaty, were elected into government. The party proposed and the electorate accepted in a referendum in 1937, a new constitution, which renamed the state Éire, or in the English language, Ireland. (Article 4 of the Constitution). The state was neutral during World War II, which was known internally as The Emergency. It offered some assistance to the Allies, especially in Northern Ireland. It is estimated[45] that around 50,000 volunteers from Éire/Ireland joined the British armed forces during the second World War. In 1949, Ireland declared itself to be a republic and that henceforth it should be described additionally as the Republic of Ireland. The Republic experienced large-scale emigration in the 1950s and again in the 1980s. From 1987 the economy recovered and the 1990s saw the beginning of unprecedented economic success, in a phenomenon known as the Celtic Tiger. By the early 2000s it had become one of the richest countries (in terms of GDP per capita) in the European Union, moving from being a net recipient of the budget to becoming a net contributor during the next Budget round (2007-13), and from a country of net emigration to one of net immigration. In October 2006, there were talks between Ireland and the U.S. to negotiate a new immigration policy between the two countries, in response to the growth of the Irish economy and desire of many U.S. citizens who sought to move to Ireland for better job opportunities. To the IRA I say to stop killing and to live your own life. Times have changed, we don't live in the 70's and 80's.
