The beginning of the end of the GFA

[HanleyS]

They believe the occupation of their country by a foreign State is undemocratic.
They also, unlike Factual, believe partition effects the whole island, and that the Unionist minority on the island cannot veto Constitutional change or progress.

What about the democratic will of the majority of the people on the island?

They ignore that! It's totally against them! The Irish people cannot be trusted! LOL.

[Truth.ie]

They seem to ignore the GFA which is supported by just about all democratically elected respresentatives in Ireland.

As was the Treaty of 22, which your party has yet to align itself with almost 90 years later.
It's their democratic right to oppose something they are morally against.
The GFA is deeply flawed as I explained earlier. It promised all to everyone, and delivered nothing. It's not written in stone.

What's the dissident strategy? Ethnic cleansing?

While I appreciate your irony HanleyS I must point out that northern protestants have as much Irish genetics as northern catholics. My republican family is made up of people from 4 different Christian traditions. So the idea of ethnic cleansing might be better phrased as political cleansing or religious cleansing.

Then hold an All Ireland referendum solely on Irish Unity. A simple Yes or No referendum.
Will the Unionists accept the All Ireland decision? No.
Will the state hold the referendum? No.
Who is really undemocratic here?

Do you know what democracy is? A bunch of malcontents forcing the will of the majority through force is not democracy.

Factual while I like you accept the GFA despite its many imperfections I have to say that Truth.ie has historical accuracy when it comes to our party and the 1922 Treaty. Perhaps it is time for us to apologise to FG?

Go easy on the Brit bashing, Squire.

Correct, but not using violence!

You seem to think that the majority of people on the island would vote to force Unionists to join a United Ireland against their will.
