    Official Ireland is just embarrassed that Northern Ireland was left behind in the war of independence, the free state government and media has been shown for their inadequacy to stand up and fight for Catholics in Northern Ireland who were oppressed and discriminated against for decades.

      Gerrymandered statelet. Created to preserve a false majority which failed anyway. The Unionists are a minority on the island. Very soon to be a minority in the north...if not already...What will they do then? As an Irishman I wouldn't be so narrow minded as too tell them to sod off back to Scotland or England...but that's just us.

      In the Republic in the 1960s Protestants couldn't obtain birth control or divorce. They were discriminated against. Dave Allen (Irish comedian who made it big in England)was told by a Catholic priest that his mother was going to Hell because she was a Protestant. So, Mr Republican what would you propose the Protestant minority do against Catholic oppression in the South?

    • @edmund184
      @edmund184 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Daniel Howard Well you side stepped the point. It is the central right of Protestants to divorce and use birth control and when the violence erupted in the 1960s it would be logical to say they were discriminated against. Tell that to the next republican who tries to justify bombing Ulster to pieces. That's the point. The Catholics will always be in a majority and as a Protestant in the 1960s you would not have had divorce or birth control.

      ONly Sinn Fein

      Does it occur to you that most uniuonists did not support the loyalist terrorists

    I believe in a 32 county republic that holds true to the message of the Tricolor. I just get sick of Nationalists claiming the PIRA where not Terrorists because the English/RUC or paramilitaries were.

      Terrorism as a phrase has become so diluted and pointless after 9/11 that I choose not to use it. Just because you have a government backing you doesn't make your actions not 'terrorism'.
