Young guy is messy it up!
320 Irish fought against Franco and 1/4 died.
I love this song, but get the singing in synch lads. Still great though.
XV brigada no quinta
Frank Ryan was a strange one - he fought well in Spain for the Republic then joined the Nazis in Germany and worked for the fascists.
He died a staunch anti fascist socialist even the Germans who knew him said they never changed his policitical stance even though he did attempt to help them invade Ireland.
A bizarre one for certain but likely viewed in the context that your enemies (Britain) enemy is your ally (Germany).
And the people who became the Connolly Column fought for some time under the command of one George Nathan, a former Black&Tan. History is rarely as neat and tidy as we would like it to be.
you're cafe is going cold
The Catholic Church kept Ireland backwards for centuries, it has a lot to answer for, it’s why the “thick paddy” joke originated.
Who do you think took the Irish out of the bog and educated them at the price of their own lives in certain cases? It was the Catholic clergy who defied the penal laws and educated the Irish which eventually led to Irish independence, so stop talking bullshit.
@@johnhiggins779 The Christian Brothers extracted a price for their benevolence
the thick paddy joke originated out of the ignorance of the english ruling class who believed most people in the world to be sub human even their own working class unfortunatley many apparently still do
@@johnhiggins779 unfortunately that was not the Catholic Church of the 1930s,40s,50s,60s,70,80s,90s who were as close to a dictatorship in Ireland as you can imagine.
I'm catalán and I sing it so much better hahahahahah
700 hundred Irishmen formed the Fifth Brigade, commanded by General O’Duffy and they fought by the side of Franco ( I understand them..they were fervent Catholics..reds were killing people because their religious faith..see Paracuellos, for example). Because they were very little unit were integrated in the Spanish Foreign Legion.
The Irish communists fought in the XVth International Brigade, by the side of English, American and other European communists…with very bad results.
absolute bigoted ignorant rubbish you are an easily lead fool
@@johnmilligan6605 Thanks so much indeed for your kind words and your "fair play"...you are a Gentleman...of course!
@@johnmilligan6605 Yes, I am a proud patriot....HONOR, GLORY AND RESPECT FOR IRISHMEN OF THE 5TH BRIGADE!
