  • I originally edited this in 1994 in my spare time while working overnights at an international news network in Atlanta. It is a video comment on the use of force to pacify a people as well as the use of violence to bring about political change. Set to music by the Cranberries, all the images used are taken from events that contributed to the struggle to unite Ireland as well as keep it divided.

    I think you did a magnificent job on the editing. the pictures with the song, really powerful. i spent a little over a week in ireland during july and i loved it so much but when i took a trip through shankill and falls road areas it almost tore my heard out. i've read a lot about the troubles but realling being there seeing and feeling all of the history...it changes you or at least it really had an impact on me.

    Who said anything about 1969? There are scenes in the video far more recent than '69.
    And, as far as I can tell, you're right about there being no scenes of carnage from the UVF or the UDA.

    The Pope is the leader of the Roman Catholic faith, not of all catholics. Paisley is perfectly entitled to state his beliefs I suppose, being the leader of his own church and all that.
    But calling the leader of that particular church the Antichrist, or an anti-Christ, is not calling Roman Catholics anti-Christs, which was my point.

      Why are you using the name Setanta an irish warrior british man? On Setanta sports you brits used to call him sultana lol. How about an apology for the genocide that you brits call the famine or what about your great hero Oliver Cromwell. Who exterminated clonmel and drocheda.? Or how about bloody Sunday. You speak shit about the Ira. But do you think they were the same as the PLO or Nelson Mandelas movement. Fighting for democracy and civil rights. It was tried peacefully but ye shot them down in bloody Sunday. One Thing sultana one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. Without the ira the Catholics in the North would of been massacred. God save Sultana!

    Paisley's religious beliefs have nothing to do with it. And he said that the Pope was the Antichrist - he didn't claim all Roman Catholics were anti-Christs.

    The thing I don't like about the song, not the video, is that she makes it sound like it all started in 1916 when in fact the fight is a lot older than that. There's a rising almost every generation, and if the past tells us anything, there will be more until Ireland is united and the British are gone. As Padraig Pearse said "Ireland unfree shall never be at peace".

    I don't understand your complaint. A smear is when you needlessly attack someone's reputation. In this case, watchman241 falsely accused me of supporting the Iraq War and then cited questionable statistics to do it. S/he used a tragedy to attack my reputation because I dislike the IRA.
    Neither of you have anything constructive to add so you just launch ad hominem attacks. Do you see those killed in Iraq as people, or just as rhetorical clubs used to beat those who disagree with you?

  • @kissfan7
    @kissfan7 16 років тому

    I never said that NI is less violent than the US, I never said the Iraq War was a good idea, and I never said the loyalists are better behaved than the republicans.
    The anti-war organization Iraq Body Count has counted 45,000 civilian and military killed by all sides, not "hundreds of thousands". It's tragic enough without you exploiting it to smear me.
    Saying this is not a pro-IRA song isn't hypocritical. Saying you "don't condon [sic] any violence" and then wishing my death, however, is.

  • @kissfan7
    @kissfan7 16 років тому

    I said two things. 1)This is a pro-Sinn Fein video. 2)This is not a pro-Sinn Fein song. I was wrong about 1) and I apologized, but you took 2) and morphed it beyond all recognition.
    You do not refute the fact that this song was written about a bomb that killed two boys, but instead project onto me views that bear no resemblance at all to my actual opinions. You simply clicked on my name, saw Old Glory on my page, and assumed I was one of the 30% of Americans who support this administration.

  • @Setanta747
