  • thank you Ireland for helping my ancestors. i love this vid Ireland joined USA then joined Mexico because they fought what they believed in knowing that they would lose still. god bless you,God bless Ireland,God bless Mexico, THANK YOU

  • Ireland you must know that Mexico loves you. And every year Mexico celebrates your heritage and the St Patrick battalion. To Mexico you are heroes, and even though some people will give you negative comments and call you traitors, mostly Americans. Know that if Ireland is ever in need of help Mexico will be the first to lend you unconditional support. Thanks a million Ireland your people, your ancestors are never forgotten. We are brothers Long live Ireland, Long live Mexico!!
