What's the point of expressing regret today for something you fully intend doing again tomorrow?Originally Posted by Mairtin Og Meehan
I am a University History student and well aware of our nations history I just wanted to see what you would say. You neglect to point out that many Irish helped Britain in her conquest it happened the day Henry II landed in Ireland and McCarthy Mor submitted to him. The Gaelic Chieftains surrendered their families lands under the Surrender and Regrant schemes etc. History isn't as simple as you thinkOriginally Posted by Mairtin Og Meehan

Well Marx, the basis of my question is to let other posters have the oppourtunity to give their responses. Therefore, it's not my wish to neglect anything :wink:
I will say though, in the interests of reconcilliation between our two nations. Should Britain not accept blame for over 800 years of crime against our people?
Fair play 2 U studying history, keep up the good work. Though don't U think someone like yourself would be better joining a political party which aren't Partitionist?

Cael a chara, I'm attempting 2 bring about a situation whereby that 'tommorrow', every person in Ireland can chart a collective journey toward the 32 County Socialist Republic :wink:

I demand Mairtin Og Meehan apologize for crimes against the English language.Originally Posted by badinage
You and what army? oh yeh the one that murders women and children in the name of republican socialism, (did u care to ask if thats whats 'the people' want or are you just gonna assume you know best?) I too used to be hypnotised by the empty rhetoric that is modern republicanism. Thank god i grew up and got an education.Originally Posted by Mairtin Og Meehan
The past is the past, you don't hear America complaining about how mean the British were, they faught for independence, like us, and built a strong state so that noone could ever subver their interests again, like us. It's people like you who try to subvert all that we've achieved in the name of some pipe dream that is 'republican ideals'. And by the way the reason they still hold the north is because a majority up there want them to. Not because of some imperial agenda, do u know how much money it costs their exchequer every year (im gonna assume with some degree of certainty that you don't).
So whilst you foolhardy impressionables go get drunk on the inebriate of republican romanticism, it's us rational individual who get left to clean up the mess. I HATE SINN FEIN WITH A PASSION. I HATE REPUBLICAN RHETORIC WITH A PASSION. AND I HATE FASCIST MORONS WHO THINK THEY CAN ASCRIBE WHAT KIND OF STATE THE REST OF US SHOULD LIVE IN, SOCIALIST UTOPIAN OR OTHERWISE. GROW THE HELL UP AND GET THE HELL OVER IT...
