#512014-01-19 15:06Celts, please come back home. We need you here. No need for you to waste your life on the fundamentally wrong continent of North America when we do have such a beautiful country over here. We need to get our Ulster back and build our Celtic Federation with the Picts, Bretons, Welsh, and Mansch. Failte! |

#522014-01-19 17:54A disgusting and unforgivable atrocity. I can't find words to describe the sadness, anger and distrust at the British Crown and government. The government of today may not be personally responsible but they are responsible for the cover up. Is this how you intended to maintain Éire? I grew up wondering what made men join the likes of the IRA. Now I truly know. |

#532014-01-19 19:18At last a movement aimed at correcting the great lie. Anyone, especially those with Irish roots, should declare their belief that our ancestors were the victims of a planned programme of starvation. No longer shall we accept the old lie, that the failure of the potato crops caused the million deaths. It was part of an Imperial policy to deprive the people of food while bribing the youngest males to populate English armies in foreign adventure. Starving masses rarely fight back nor ask for the return of their lands, nor a vote nor a future. |

#54 Re:2014-01-19 19:20Exactly. I understand fully why my own father took up arms, albeit in a futile attempt in 1939, resulting in him spending 10 years in Peterhead Prison, |

#552014-01-21 16:21I am Irish. My ancestors had to come to America as slaves and some because of the Haulocaust. I think everyone should know what England did to our ancestors. It was wrong and is not even common knowledge in America. |

#56 Re:2014-01-21 16:24I wish I could come back. It will take me two years of saving just to go over there on vacation. I have dual citizenship, but I have children who are married. It isn't possible to move, but I wish it were. |

#632014-01-24 17:56Genocide crimes are reconized in every part of the world from Rwanda to Poland, and these rightly make it on to TV where the true nature of what happened is explained. I think the People of Ireland and the world have and deserve that right to too. I would now like the british state to accept their actions, and apoligise to the people of Ireland. |
