God be with you Ireland

"Let us not casually reduce "that great past to a trouble of fools. For we need not feel the bitterness of the past to discover its meaning for the present and the future."

William Butler Yeats


"A country, enlightened as Ireland, chartered as Ireland, armed as Ireland and injured as Ireland will be satisfied with nothing less than liberty."

Henry Grattan


"All the world owes much to the little 'five feet high' nations. The greatest art of the world was the work of little nations. The most enduring literature of the world came from little nations. The heroic deeds that thrill humanity through generations were the deeds of little nations fighting for their freedom. And oh, yes, the salvation of mankind came through a little nation."

Lloyd George

The truth will never hide
even though I try
they tried to take my pride
but they only took my father from me
they only took my father
even though I cried
even though I tried again

God be with you Ireland
God be with you Ireland

Sometimes I was afraid
even though I prayed
I've lost my religion now
you took that, too, somehow

Blood upon my hands
blood upon thy hands, again

(I have served my time)
God be with you Ireland
(suffered for my crime)
God be with you Ireland

(I have served my time)
God be with you Ireland
(suffered for my crime)
God be with you Ireland

God be with you Ireland...

[Ramone198723]

Ulster has a right to seperate, and Protestants have the right to rule as a majority, if you don't like it, your problem is with democracy, catholics have worked so hard to destory our state but in the end they only destroy themselves with their bankrupt bitch of state with a bleeding arsehole from gettin fucked by priests and now banks

[OpeningSalvoe]

@Ramone198723 No YOU are the one who has a problem with democracy, there is NO protestant majority in Ireland, never has been, you can't just gerrymander one into existence, hence Northern Ireland has no right to separate, and like the thick uneducated hun that you are, you fail to realize that half of Ulster is in the republic, the other half is a pathetic leeching little illegal stalelet that can't stand on it's own two feet and has to suckle off Englands teet.

[Ramone198723]

@OpeningSalvoe all states are man made!, by that logic the USA is illegal, I'm proud to be a hun, and I'm very well educated, your state is nothing but papal princapilty where priests dips their dicks into kids and no law worth a dam to stop any of them

[OpeningSalvoe]

@Ramone198723 States are made only with the consent of the majority of their people, so Northern Ireland is illegal because it exists in defiance of the wishes of the overwhelming majority of Irish people. Your "state" is a pathetic scrounging handout dependent little wartorn shithole that has never been able to stand on it's own two feet, you'll take handouts from anyone, even from us.
