The normal Irish (of the time) merely wanted home rule, which they were getting as soon as the First World War came to an end—but the communists pushed for full independence, and ended up prolonging the war with their stupid 1916 rebellion, basically siding with the Axis by doing that.

You mean the Central Powers. The Axis was World War II.

Ain't it funny how Commies can never make up their minds as to whether they're for national sovereignty or against it?

Ireland is the land of my ancestors.It was once a great country populated by exceptionally brave and hard working people.Today it's become just another European cesspool,a country that now means no more to me than does Burkina Faso or Bolivia.

Maybe the U.S. should come out with a General Sir John Grenfell Maxwell stamp.

He died a miserable weeping little coward. But very Brave when executing innocents or sending other men to fight. Yet pissing himself, weeping, begging for life when caught by the Bolivians. Go Bolivia!

Ouch. Some of them even conspired with the Nazis, they have been so unbounded by their hate for Britain.

Thanks for the correction.

Wonder how many today remember that the Ottoman Empire (major Islamic power) was part of the Central Powers? All present-day Islamic terrorism is revanchism over losing that empire.

Hey, I’m actually largely of Irish descent (mostly from my mother’s side), and I’m personally outraged and disappointed by their supporting that psychopathic mass murderer myself. And for the record, I actually voted for Donald Trump (and he wasn’t even my first choice in that election, either: That was Ben Carson). I wish you don’t paint those of us of Irish descent as being bad news. I can also name a few Irish Catholics who would be aghast with Che being supported, or the whole Roe v. Wade thing.

Colin O'Brien and Dylan Murphy know who's behind this.

I’m of total Irish descent. My problems are with the Irish themselves mostly.

And I can tell you, I know a few Irish people who immigrated here to America who definitely have no kind words for our liberal politicians or any leftist demagogues (like Hugh Marron, the current Monsignor of All Saints Catholic Church in the Archdiocese of Atlanta).

I’m reluctant to bash the Irish mostly because I’m unwilling to attack fellow Catholics, and for the record, I hate what Pope Francis is doing to the Church.
