If you accept the position currently being spouted by McDowell and the media they were nothing less than common criminals and scum.
Ask McDowell if he thinks his grandfather, Eoin MacNeill, was a criminal. After all he had no democratic mandate.
The men and women of 1916 were actual revolutionaries. They declared British rule in Ireland to be illegitimate and engaged in a revolutionary armed struggle against it .
Sinn Fein have accepted British rule as legitimate and signed up to the GFA. They have eagerly allowed themselves to become a central part of the administering of British rule in Ireland. Just recently they even called for an ALLIANCE between the British govt and "nationalist Ireland" in order to bypass the unionists and get the British govt structures here up and running again !!! And there wasnt even a whimper of protest from within their ranks at this unprecedented offer of collaboration. Never before has a so called republican organisation offered to step in and shore up British rule when it appeared utterly unworkable and defunct.
While there is no doubt that scumbag McDowell would denounce and jail the men and women of 1916, its worth remembering what Adams and McGuinness would do as well.
They would also smear them as criminals, try and have them abducted, threatened, murdered or beaten. They would also declare they had no democratic mandate , denounce them as a "micro-group" and no doubt call them "securocrat puppets" also if they endangered the peace process.
McDowell is only doing exactly the same things and using exactly the same tactics as Adams and McGuiness have done to those republicans who refuse to accept British rule on this island.
Morally there is more in common between those leaders who have collaborated with British rule here than with the men and women of 1916.
Oranmore was by no means the "the only major mobilisation of the 1916 rebellion outside of Dublin."
If you did the tiniest bit of reseach you would know that THE major mobilisation of the 1916 rebellion outside of Dublin at Ashbourne where a force of 70 RIC were defeated by Thomas Ashe.
Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford was also taken by rebels and held until news of failure in Dublin.
Who expects the whole story in a short announcement?
And regarding 'major mobilisations', there were ten times as many Volunteers 'out' in co. Galway as there were in Ashbourne
His statue still stands close to Eyre Square ... even though his memory has all but been airbrushed out of history ......
"You have murdered our brave Liam and Rory
You have cut down young Richard and Joe
And your hands with their blood are still gory
Fulfilling the work of the foe !"
Change the record and join the 21st century...that said, 77 has such a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
Aye indeed. Nearly as good as "Ballyseedy" ....
I noticed on my last visit to Kilmainham that they have even started putting up plaques to the victims of the Civil War who were "executed" by the Free State (mostly without any semblance of judicial process) ..... still some catching up to do ....
BACK THEN UPON THAT ONE-WAY BLOOD-SOAKED TRAIL
"NI SIOCHAIN GO SAOIRSE !" IS THE WAR CRY OF THE GAEL !
Touchy little fellow aren't you?
Nobody was asking for the full story -You said "the ONLY major mobilisation".
Still standing by that tabloid-like soundbite then then are you?
And Devil Dog, throwbacks like you have a nerve seeing as your own reactionary politics are stuck in the mid-18th century.
