'Break the Connection' - Mobilise for Bodenstown '07

by Thómas from The Woodside - Indo Tue Jun 12, 2007 18:49

"break the connection with Britain’ and to unite the people of Ireland"

And the way to do this is Join a British force, uphold British laws, sit in a British sub-government, sell out all your republican ideas and comrades.
Well done Gerry and the lads cant wait for YOUR UNITED IRELAND or should I say GOD SAVE THE QUEEN. The brits broke SF and SF destroyed the IRA

I'm just curious how everyone thinks Theobald himself would feel about three seperate republican groups marching to his grave in the same month. I'm sure that he, as a founder of the UNITED IRISHMEN, would rather they were, eh, united. Well?

I wonder will Paisley allow McGuinness to attend? I can't wait to hear Adams trying to draw comparison between Tone and the present sell out.

At this stage it might be best if Gerry and co just joined forces with Fianna Fail for their Bodenstown commemoration. You are after all following in their political footsteps so you might as well follow their footsteps to Bodenstown or why not just give up going there after all you have given up everything else at this stage.

The same old rubbish from the history department. Have you actually done anything to further republican politics lately? Been to any protests, any meetings, stood in any elections, joined in any campaigns? Or is just all keyboard stuff with you now? Attack Sinn Féin and leave everyone ellse alone...

RPM, you and your RIRA pals can attack Sinn Fein all you want but you won't change the fact that we are the Republican Party doing the most to achieve a United Ireland. Where is your large mandate?????

Hi Doire !

......fancy meeting you on this thread ;-) !

Doire has stopped speaking to me because I pulled him up on , amongst a load of other things , this comment he made - "I don't accept what you say about Kissenger, because I know Martin McGuinness all of my Republican life and I know that he wouldn't associate with a known war criminal."
(http://www.indymedia.ie/article/83092&comment_limit=0&c...98839)

By the way , Doire - Fianna Fail also parade to Wolfe Tone's grave , they actually have the legend 'The Republican Party' on their literature and they have a "large mandate" .
Will you be supporting them tomorrow ?

Sharon.

No, I won't be supporting a party who uses Republicanism when it suits them. I however believe that one day Sinn Fein will eventually overhaul FF and that day is not too far off. OK so we suffered a minor setback in the last election but that was because the southern electorate were more concerned with other issues like FG getting into government. Meanwhile we remain the only all Ireland party.

Will you all be wearing your nice green blazers again this year?

Hi Doire !

" No, I won't be supporting a party who uses Republicanism when it suits them. "
Too late for you there , I fear .

" I however believe that one day Sinn Fein will eventually overhaul FF and that day is not too far off. "
So it's 'FIANNA FAIL OUT' rather than 'BRITS OUT' now , is it ?

" OK so we suffered a minor setback in the last election but that was because the southern electorate were more concerned with other issues like FG getting into government."
The "setback" , Doire , is believing that Leinster House can be 'used' to effect a British declaration of withdrawal . How many times have your elected representatives in that institution called for same ?

" Meanwhile we remain the only all Ireland party."
Ooops !
.....another 'Kissinger Moment' on your behalf : see this -

- then tell me that it's Martin's fault for misleading you !

Poor deluded Sharon, twisting what I am saying to suit your own agenda. I don't support a party which uses Republicanism I am part of a party which has always been Republican since the days of Tone,Emmet and Connelly. Your so called Republican friends are the bad apples who fell from the tree.
Our aim is the removal of the Brits and to replace FF with a proper government in Leinster House. Where else should the government of Ireland sit?
The Green party are an all Ireland joke looking to save the planet. Martin has never misled me I think that you are envious of the way he has won over Paisley and many Unionists.

Hi Doire !

" Poor deluded Sharon, twisting what I am saying to suit your own agenda."
But in your own words you have described Henry Kissinger as a friend of Irish Republicans and have stated that your party is the only all-Ireland party !
Do you still consider those assertions to be true , Doire ?

" I don't support a party which uses Republicanism I am part of a party which has always been Republican since the days of Tone,Emmet and Connelly. "
Tone , Emmet and Connolly administered Westminster's writ in Ireland too , did they ?

" Your so called Republican friends are the bad apples who fell from the tree."
You sound just like a British and/or 26 County politician . You must be proud of that comparision !

"Our aim is the removal of the Brits and to replace FF with a proper government in Leinster House. "
So that's what your 'struggle' is all about - 'remove the Brits' by working for them and replace Fianna Fail with Fianna Fail Lite ! Onwards to 'Victory' , eh , Doire !

"Where else should the government of Ireland sit?"
Where does it 'sit' now ?

"The Green party are an all Ireland joke looking to save the planet."
Wow ! Strong words . I can't help but notice how statements like that were not uttered at all during the recent election campaign by any of your people !

" Martin has never misled me I think that you are envious of the way he has won over Paisley and many Unionists."
He mis-led you in regards to Henry Kissinger 'being a friend of Irish republicans' .
Also , Martin has not so much "won over Paisley and many unionists" as being won over by them !
Incidentally - towards the end of last month , Jose Manuel Barroso visited Stormont in his capacity as 'President of the EU' . Mr Paisley (Martin's boss...) offered Mr Barroso some 'fadge' (potato bread) and told him not to worry about any crumbs as "the deputy" (McGuinness) would "...gobble up any leftovers..." afterwards , a remark which Gerry Kelly described as "top-dog talk..." . Paisley and Barroso roared with laughter , while poor Martin blushed and cringed . Sad.
Onwards to (*BURP!*) 'Victory' , Doire .....

Sharon.
