Since I lived in Ireland, I think I might know more about this subject than you. RTE was fond of playing footage of Paisley at his most vociferous (as was UTV for the record), and the only time I got to hear the other side of the story is when I moved to the US.
I have no time for any pro-”Palestinians” whether they call themselves “Catholic” or not. I have less time for the Irischer Zeiten, with all due respect, given their recent pro-EU/anti-Irish-independence stance.
“Since I lived in Ireland, I think I might know more about this subject than you.”
In other words, you have no real response to the article I posted that listed so many damning statements from Paisley.
“RTE was fond of playing footage of Paisley at his most vociferous (as was UTV for the record), and the only time I got to hear the other side of the story is when I moved to the US.”
Vociferous is one thing. Vile and hateful is another. Paisley apparently was all three. Deal with it.
“I have no time for any pro-”Palestinians” whether they call themselves “Catholic” or not.”
So you think Paisley’s vile statements from 1968 - THAT’S 1968! - were all about ‘pro-”Palestinians”’? Get real.
“I have less time for the Irischer Zeiten, with all due respect, given their recent pro-EU/anti-Irish-independence stance.”
Your FEELINGS about an Irish newspaper in no way change the fact that Paisley said what he said. The problem with your post is not the so-called “pro-Palestinians”. It isn’t the Irish Times. The problem is the undeniable reality of Paisley’s vile nature as demonstrated by his own words and actions.
