    The Irish have a CREATIVE soul, people, that is nearly unparalleled and unmatched by any other tribe of humanity. They have a special brain for communication and humor. For lyrics, poems, and acerbic banter. Thank God for the Irish ( though I am not one ).

      @@nastybastardatlive Not every class of people on earth need to meet the standards and qualities you've required here, in order to be lauded and admired. They are indeed exceptional as a people, as a contributing culture on earth, in the arts, as I have stated. Particularly in the fields of literature and music. That they have not aspired or excelled in the industries that make it possible to sink an aircraft carrier is trivial. There are enough nations who can. I value the Irish for their uniqueness, and would admire them less if they possessed the more common attributes and accomplishments that you say they lack.

    Peter's take on being Irish is so precise. I can't remember who said this now, but I once read a quote from an Irishman, who said something along the lines of "Being an Irishman isn't proclaiming your nationality, it's more announcing your state of mind." Just to back that up even more, an Irishman I worked with years ago once told me that St Patrick's Day is the one day of the year when the whole world is full of Irishmen or people who wished they were!
    Way, way back in my father's family's past, there is a strong Irish Catholic link and through absolutely no sense of sentimentality, Ireland is the only country in the world I have ever wanted to visit. Being there just seems to be the right thing to do. The accuracy of my choice was reinforced by a work mate ( whose parents were both from the Republic ), when he told me I should go there "because you're just fuckin' weird enough to fit right in!"

      I don't think he's good looking, as even if I was a woman, or I was gay, I still wouldn't like the piercing Blue eyes, pale skin, freckles, skinny body, and rubbish haircut, just like *Peter O'Toole.*

      More recent views of Churchill respect him as a war leader but highlight his racism particularly towards Indians but also the Irish. He was brutal towards the miners and uncaring towards working people. The British valued him as a war leader but promptly and rightly, in my view,dispatched him after the war.

He was known to be fond of liquor and one evening he needed a men's room to relieve himself. The men's room was out of order and locked so he went into the women's room. A haughty woman came in and saw him standing and urinatiing in one of the stalls. She said angrily, "This is for women!" O'Toole said, "So is this but sometimes I pass some water through it." You can so picture him saying something like that.

      And when the war was over, they kicked out this mass murder and perpetrator of genocide. Churchill railed against ireland during the war completely overlooking the help Ireland secretly gave to Britain - listening stations, patrol reports , refusing port facilities to Germany etc etc. we had no army worth talking about at the time because we only just freed ourselves from British control and oppression. We had to stay “neutral” to prevent Germany attacking us and thereby gaining a foothold against Britain where German bases in ireland would be used to great effect against Britain who might have lost the war before the US had any opportunity of joining in.
