A Sad day for Ireland



Today is a very dark day for Ireland so it is. For all of Ireland. A Catholic was killed by a Catholic in Omagh, Northern Ireland. The press is claiming it was the IRA because the IRA stated it would target Irish Catholics who join the police force. This has broken a long seize fire from the IRA.

Ya know a lot of people claim to represent the IRA or the RA for short. Tell me this wasn't the Provos. Tell me it was the Sticks or the INLA like the wack job that kidnapped a dentist in Dublin many years ago and sent his fingers to his family with the ransom note. That evil act had nothing to do with freedom. It was a direct violation of the Irish Proclamation as was this murder.

Give your head a shake man. You just killed one of our own. I know Omagh has always been a pretty Republican town so to speak. I don't know if they're Sticks or Provos. But I do know this murder was wrong.

For years, Ireland has refused to recognize British rule. Bobby Sands suffered in H Block and refused to wear a prison uniform because he wasn't a criminal he was a political prisoner. I've heard stories from former inmates who claimed they would sing a hymn at the end of the day at Long Kesh that was the most heavenly thing they had ever experienced.

Booby Sands was an elected MP but refused to take his seat in a British Parliament. Bobby Sands and the H Block hunger strikers were noble soldiers so they were. Yet they fought for a cause and that cause was self rule not self destruction.

Ian Paisley, the devil himself, finally changed his ways and agreed to sit down with old Gerry Adams from Sein Fein. Progress was made at the peace talks and elected MPs in Northern Ireland finally started to take their seats in British Parliament. This was not apostatising from the original cause so it wasn't.

50 % of the people in Northern Ireland don't want to be a part of Ireland so they don't. 50% of the people in Northern Ireland want to be a part of England so they do. That makes the struggle very problematic so it does.

The struggle has always been one for freedom and democracy. You've got to support the democratic will of the people. The Irish Proclamation reminds us cherishing all of the children of the nation equally and oblivious of the differences carefully fostered by an alien government, which have divided a minority from the majority in the past.

Differences carefully fostered by an alien government. Killing our own would clearly fall into that trap. I want to know who did this. We know it wasn't the Irish Republican Brotherhood. We know it wasn't the Fianna Fáil. Their noble ghosts form the banshee who wail and mourn over this inhumane murder.

What are ya gonna do now? Kill Gery Adams for taking his elected seat in Parliament? Don't be a fool man. The American Revolution was all about taxation without representation. You have representation if you will but stand up and take it. If Northern Ireland was a free state you'd need some kind of police force. Don't tell me the brethren selling crack will be the police force. I think not.

If Northern Ireland was to become free, despite 50% of the population who already think it is, your would need some kind of police force. Wake up and smell the coffee man. Times have changed. The earth yearns for democracy not for murder and oppression. Ireland has had enough of that from foreign oppressors. Ireland doesn't need that from within.

Don't kill an elected MP for taking office. Taking office is the way to make change and that is the way to self government just like the Free State was a stepping stone to the Irish Republic so it was and don't piss on Michael Collins grave for that. He set the south free. Because of what he did, the free state became the Irish Republic.

Don't tell me Gerry Adams is selling out because he's standing up and taking his seat in Parliament. We can't sit on our knees and wipe shit on the walls forever so we can't. It's time to stand up and take what is rightfully ours. Killing our own is not the way to do it.

Ian Paisley used to burn the flag of the Irish Republic and say "Ulster says No to a United Ireland." Burning the tricolour was an offence to peace between Catholics and Protestants in Ireland but that is what they did every July 12 so they did. They burned the flag and pissed on the dream so they did.

Well I say to you today that this evil act has pissed on the flag and pissed on the graves of the noble signers of the Irish Proclamation who gave their lives for the cause and sealed that proclamation with their blood.

"We place the cause of the Irish Republic under the protection of the Most High God. Whose blessing we invoke upon our arms, and we pray that no one who serves that cause will dishonour it by cowardice, in humanity, or rapine. In this supreme hour the Irish nation must, by its valour and discipline and by the readiness of its children to sacrifice themselves for the common good, prove itself worthy of the august destiny to which it is called."

Murdering your own who stands up to take what is rightfully theirs is a cowardly inhumane act that violates the Irish Proclamation and pisses on the graves of those noble soldiers who sealed that pledge with their blood.

Who did this murder? I want to know and I want you to know that if Ireland is to move forward by sacrificing for the common good, these murders must stop and we must embrace the democratic process or it will be more than Banshee that will me coming for ye. Mark my word.

Turns out it was a splinter of a splitter group - Oglaigh na heireann which broke off from the "Real IRA" which wasn't the Real IRA at all. The "Real IRA" were wackos who broke off of the IRA and didn't want peace. Oglaigh na heireann broke off of the break aways. Now surely the Real RA IE. the Provos, will take care of that unsightly splinter. Nobody in West Belfast supports these new wackos.
