Weren't the supporters of William the actual rebels here? Considering how legally James was still King of Ireland, as the Irish parliament hadn't declared for William at the time.
@@micahritchie9179 No, the Parliament of Ireland had remained loyal to the Stuart's and declared James to still be King, which made the supporters of William the rebels
Well it depends on your definition of rebel. William was given the title of King of the three kingdoms (including Ireland) by Parliament due to him fleeing to France. Essentially vacating the crown of the three Kingdoms. During that times Ireland’s loyalty was split: with the Gaelic and Old English siding with James and the New English and Ulster Planters siding primarily with William. It was a loop were both sides thought themselves right, and thought the opposing side to be rebels.
