lucas33881@AKAIex44 Freiheit die ich meine! Flemish sympathies lie with the oppressed. Remembering eg the export of potatoes during the great famine. We are not ignorant. Above performance of 'A nation Once Again' touches my soul. And... we are also on our way to sing the same song!
If you wanna get into technicalities, how about the period when it acted as an autonomous kingdom with its own parliament before the act of union in 1801, similar to scottland? Besides, when referring to 'a nation once again', the loose affiliation of celtic tribes under a high king at Tara is a hell of a lot closer than any Ireland under British colonial rule. No other country in the world sides with you in this conflict, bar maybe hardline royalists and anti-catholics.
A nation is a body of people who share a real or imagined common history, culture, language or ethnic origin. Oliver you have a poor understanding of the word. The question you want to ask is when was ireland a sovereign political nation of 32 counties. At the moment the 32 counties of ireland is a nation under the oxford english dictionary defintion. Unionists are clearly an ethic minority in the nation.
""foriegn sympathies lie with a united ireland"? Really, who?"" Oliver he clearly means the vast majority of people who want the union broke up in the UK. After all the polls clearly show that less than 25% want to keep northern Ireland. It costs us to much. We don't get anything in return.
Actually, it was an 'autonomous kingdom'. That was the whole point of the british system, 'autonomous' kingdoms who shared the same monarch. You only asked afterall, when Ireland was united as a nation, not when it wasn't under British rule. And the conflict ended in 1994? On a large scale yes, but what about the recent shootings of british soldiers and members of the PSNI? And my last statement was a poor choice of words. I meant that most foriegn sympathies lie with a united ireland.
nope sorry! he lost it. "lord of the dance", and "feet of flames" was WAY better!!! The dancing and the costumes were way better in the 1996 and 1998 shows, when he used to wear the leather pants and heat up the stage with speeding feet. This is embarrassing. And the music in the other shows were better, original irish celtic music and dancing, This really sucks! and it pains me to say it, becuase i was a huge fan of his from the 90's shows!
Wow look at the crowd... their reaction, screaming. Goosebumps.

This sounds more like it belongs in a Team Ireland soccer match, not a Michael Flatley dance show.
farther quarrel that will end with nothing but bad blood between you both. :)
