No actually, a west Brit is an Irish person who completely disregards their own history to the point of idiocy then tries to criticise their *fellow countrymen and women* who were left to fend for themselves within a brutally sectarian statelet controlled by people they have zero experience of (Loyalists) Be honest with yourself, how many conversations have you ever had with a loyalist or Unionist? How much of what went on the the 6 counties do you know about? Seriously, what decent right thinking person could form the opinions west brits do given our long and bloody history with Britain? If you are a supporter of anything Britain did here and you call yourself an Irish person, then you are without doubt 100% a true blue west brit. Its as simple as that Its got fuck all to do with the IRA .

I remember this - at the time, Ireland really did want to move on and stop being reminded of the anger and violence of the North - it was raw and a little too soon - Gerry Adams was the leader of Sinn Fein at the time and he was, and still is very much a seriously decisive figure in Ireland. Many people were very much looking to the future and trying to, honestly, forget about the past. In 2023 I would absolutely support the Wolfe Tones message, it's greatly appreciated now, but back then, it did feel exhausting and exasperating to keep on about it. My honest appraisal.
I'm from West Belfast. That journalist is an unapologetic Brit. He has no understanding nor does he want to understand what people up here have had to go through. People have a right to resist. The Wolfe Tones aren't ashamed to support that resistance. More power to them. They finish the West Belfast festival every year and are a total sell out. People up here love them. ❤
Howdy from across the pond! Love this song, came across it while looking for material to use in a Research paper for a University History class. The Irish struggle for Independence is something I have always been fascinated with, mostly because I didn't understand it much, if at all. I went in with no opinions and after mining through a metric Fuc&-Ton of historical records, journal articles, accounts, opinion pieces, etc... As I learned more and more I started to form an opinion.. (cont.)
I don't have a "dog in the hunt" so to speak, and I hope this would give an outsiders perspective to you guys. Going all the way back to the Anglo conquering of the Celts in the 12th century up until around 1922 when the Anglo-Irish Treaty went into effect gives a clear picture of why the Irish Catholics had enough by that time. When people are subjugated and oppressed for nearly 800 years it tends to give them a good idea about how they are valued by their ruling power. Since the late 1100s

thank you for sharing. This is very very interesting.The political and social elites of The South had been shown up by The Republicans in The North. The Southern elites had sold out The North for their own comfy existence and The Troubles embarrassed The Government of The South and because The South had let this attitude spread The Republicans of The North had to protect themselves and fight a war anyway they could. Unfortunately if you don't learn from history then history repeats. It hurts me to say it,and I really didn't think I'd see it, but another group of Republicans have sold out those they were representing for a "comfy existence". There is still British Rule in Northern Ireland and it is enforced by once hardline Republicans.While there is still British rule and no matter who does the enforcing their will be a Republican Movement, no matter how small at times, bubbling away under the surface and waiting to reappear on a larger scale once the occupying forces do just one more thing that becomes the final straw that breaks the camels back.And the foolish Loyalists will still support the UK side despite The UK having also totally lied, and not shown any loyalty, to their own supporters.
I don't get the hypocrisy of some southerners, so it was ok to support the ira and have statues of members of the ira erected throughout the republic when THEY were fighting the british occupation, but once they get that freedom and the north carries on fighting its all of a sudden terrorism and racist, explain please, why was it okay for the tones to sing songs about the old ira in the south but not okay to sing songs about the ira in the north. these people should hang their heads in shame as im sure their ancestors are turning in their graves at their ignorance and arrogance
You're absolutely right there rl2 Its disgusting for us up north to listen to these hypocritical morons point fingers and judge us for what they did themselves. How the hell do they think they aquired their cosy little free state? With the actions of the IRA! Idiots and morons. Its pure ignorance mostly but there are many people in the south who were enemies of the IRA from the civil war. Remember that, the Irish civil war was a bitterly fought conflict and Irish people have very long memories. The southern media are of course supporters of the status quo which suits many politicians and business men. The narrative in the south is one that promotes the false idea that Ireland somehow won the war of independence. This is so far from the truth when we look at what actually happened. The British divided the island against the wishes of the population through the threat of war. The men who acquiesced in the treaty became enemies of their former comrades in the IRA who wanted to fight on to free the entire island, not just the 26 counties of the Freestate. Those men and women who fought on are the direct predecessors of the Official IRA and the Provisional IRA The southern government have always been the enemies of the IRA. Whats sickening to us up north is when we hear some condescending moralising prick from the south attemtpting to lecture us about an issue they know nothing about. The main difference between the modern conflict up north and the war of independence down south was and is Loyalism. People down south have *No* idea what our experience was up here, nor do many of them care. Ultimately you are 100% correct, any southerner who labels our only defenders as terrorists yet praise the old IRA are ignorant and at times arrogant hypocrites. They sold us down the river then point a finger at us when we were left to defend ourselves by all and ay means necessary. .
"making problems where there are none" What a ridiculously ignorant assertion to make. Have you any idea what happened up here? Obviously not becasue nobody can be that ignorant of the historical facts. Go on, tel me, spell out exactly where there "was no problem" Idiot .
RTE as per usual doing a nice West Brit slash and burn job on our national history and heritage. Blaming songs for terrorism is spineless and weak. The wolfe tones have a right to sing what they want and they are still pouplar so take it for what it is.
Fintan O'Toole, turning intellectual clap trap into effluent for decades, himself and Pat Kenny could be a humourless parody for the two grumpy old men on the Muppet Show, what an insufferable bore.
...damn impressive that a country full of people who reside next door to the country that rules them can break free and become independent, especially considering that Great Britain was still one of, if not THE, most powerful Empires in the World at the time. When looked at from outside the situation it's almost impossible not to sympathize. I think being an American also contributes since that same heritage is rooted deep in many Americans as well. I'm not trying to suggest that one side..
Fintan O' Tool appropriately named, he is most likely the loudest hands clapping at the present demise of Irish society. The likes of his disturbing rants have paved the way for the now laws being passed where indigenous peoples are not allowed to air their views.
The Wolfe tones wrote a great song called protestant men who who hated England and love Ireland and as a roman Catholic who married an English woman think the history is past let it lay. There's a reason for the tri colour green and orange and white for unity let us all be free xx

It was just a joke FFS poking at a country that is trying every which way it can to claim (some SAS man set up camp on the rock to prove that it could be lived on to support the British claim!) right to a rock so that they can drill for more oil and screw the planet up a bit more. In fairness Denmark staked a claim too for the same reason!
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. They laid down their live's for political status and to further the Republican movement. Political volunteers like Bobby Sands MP have took Sinn Fein into the political mainstream and have brought us to the table wit the brit 'goverment/opressors' and unionists. We are on the brink, due to EU pressure at the lack of movement by the brits/unionist coalition, of a united Ireland. Our day is coming, and is very near.
...on and off, Irish Catholics seem to have been treated poorly and like 2nd class citizens pretty often. I can only Imagine, being a Southerner (American), 800 years of that treatment makes a group of people bitter, mistrustful, and angry towards their oppressors. Up to 1916 Ireland had tried, many different times, to rebel and break free of British rule and were unsuccessful.
