brianakira, totally agree with you in relation to the Jewish and Irish holocausts

I don't think it was a question of re-writing history however. I believe the reason the Irish horror was relegated and diluted on a global scale, had more to do with the fact, that our perpetrators were the British.

marty, I stand corrected. You are 100% correct.

Richard,

Thanks for the review. I’m updating my library and appreciate the feed back.It gets expensive purchasing some of these books to find out they are less than interesting.

Brianakira,

Sorry for the delay in reply, but I’m trying to catch up on TPQ newsletters.

I have a totally different take on your view of the Jews “controlling the world” so to speak. I see it more as the WASP’s controlling the media, Hollywood, financial institutions and bank rolling other wasp politicians into power. However, it wouldn’t deter me from reading a book written or published by a protestant if it was worth reading. Side note: What I do respect about the Jewish people is that they will never let the world forget what happened to them during the Holocaust and you don’t see many Jewish writers, to my knowledge, trying to re-write their history. I only wish more Irish and Irish-Americans felt the same way about the Irish Holocaust (famine).

Robert
Marty is usually the first one out the gate with his posts so it was s a quick check for the usual suspects a reassurance that I was not on the wrong page.
“"Even my arch Pensive Quill opponent Robert I learn from and he stays the course .."
Was using it in the movie theme terms keeping in line with the conspiracy plot then funny enough “Darn Tootin” and the old Wild West shows up got a good laugh at that and the old Western flicks.

“I challenge anyone to demonstrate a comparison between anything I have presented with Brians anti-semitic diatribe.”

No comparison needed surprised you even mentioned that.
On a lighter note the saber rattling on the article “Eejits” is good craic.

Tain Bo,

"Even my arch Pensive Quill opponent Robert I learn from and he stays the course .."

Damn tootin! The intent of the "shoot and run" contributor is insult and mockery - my intent is already stated. As for the "usual suspects". I challenge anyone to demonstrate a comparison between anything I have presented with Brians anti-semitic diatribe.

I thought I was on the wrong blog reading Brainakiras’ comments had to check that the usual suspects were present, yes Robert that includes you.
I must give him credit for his honesty well almost honesty as he only implies he might be a bigot “I guess I must be a "bigot" or an "anti-Semite"?” Does the Pope love his red shoes?
The great Jewish conspiracy like many conspiracies have elements of truth within though generally end up with the irrational overriding any logical reasoning thus it ends up in the bin and becomes subject to ridicule.

“I believe that no Jew (as a Jew) has anything at all to teach any non-Jew. And since every single mainstream movie and every major US media Talmud-Vision network, and the vast majority of the US media are owned and/or run by Jews, I see no need to support their cultural imperialism.”

I had my cornflakes this morning so I am pretty sure I won’t need to burn my copy of The Torah. The comments are not disturbing or shocking just confusing. A simple solution would be use the remote control and stop watching things that fuel your theory. You have me beat and paranoid now as I have yet to watch Jaws or Star Wars never mind Michael Collins or Schiendlers List. As for the mainstream news media well if you watch that then that is a self inflicted punishment. Paranoid as now I fear walking past a picture house and being abducted by a gang of Steven Spielberg clones and be forced to pay and watch all the films I have not seen. For someone to hate something so much you sound obsessive in your quest to prove the Jewish conspiracy. My money is on finding the Holy Grail first.

“I believe that no Jew (as a Jew) has anything at all to teach any non-Jew.” Would that statement not contradict itself as obviously you are trying to teach the readers something?
I know I am more than a few shillings short of a quid but I believe I learn things from others.
Even my arch Pensive Quill opponent Robert I learn from and he stays the course hopefully that will encourage others to follow his lead and expand the dialogue.

Unfortunately this is the media age and we all are addicted to our instant entertainment.
Have to admit it beats the crap out of my old transistor radio.

A typically well written review Ricky.

On the subject of the Hunger Strikes I read Tim Brannigan's excellent book, Where Are You Really From? while on a recent holiday. My wife who doesn't normally read books also read and enjoyed it.

The part of his book which caught my eye in particular centered round the two Hunger Strikes and his attendance at the various protests and funerals.

He said he attended what he believed was the last march after the ten men had died which took place on a rain-lashed night in Ballymurphy. It was, he said, attended by several hundred people as opposed to the many thousands who had been there at the start.

He said, "the speaker spent as much time talking about Sinn Fein's 'potential' were they to stand for election as he did about the hunger strikers."

Given that Sinn Fein announced for the first time that they would stand in all future elections in the North three days after Michael Devine died and Owen Carron won the F/ST by-election on 20th August I think it is increasingly clear that while men were dying that certain people's minds were focused more on a future electoral strategy rather than those who were dying or had died.

I am reading "Beauty and Atrocity" and I am glad I bought it. It is very readable in style and content and I am enjoying it thoroughly. It was indeed written with much "flare and wit."

The detail is very interesting and the historical background of the interviewees gives their comments greater historical relevance and context. Richard was right when he explained that it is "essential reading for anyone interested in Irish politics".

2010-08-13T11:30:51.987+01:00

There is certainly merit in the view that the 'Jews' monopolise Hollywood and the media in general for propoganda. That doesn't justify Nazi reaction. However I did find the neanderthal knuckle-dragging comments amusing. Even a gorilla like knuckle dragging 'paddy' like myself can sit and have a laugh at that. Makes me and my wee sectarian streak feel almost civilised!!

2010-08-12T19:40:34.087+01:00

Larry,

I would not remotely put the jest by Robert in the same category as the comments made in relation to Jewish people. The latter came from a thoroughly repulsive creature with a mindset like a sewer.

2010-08-12T18:47:46.787+01:00

Enjoyed that article. Interesting big Cleeky stepped up to the plate on the hungerstrike issue. Beauty and atrocity, interesting title. I saw mr Murphy on the cover of the Irish News today saying he couldn't recomment his kids join the PSNI. Well I never!! But he's cool with Mc Guinness and Co. advocating people sell out their buddies and neighbours to the same outfit. Was lookin up his website to tell him to catch himself to F"£k ON but couldn't find an email address, anyone know it? Time that man had a few choice words to clear his head a tad. Things have got to the stage these guys have no perception af what gunk flows from their contradictory mouths.
Agree with Mackers nailing of the situation as it stands politically in the article. A better deal for nordy taigs in the UK is their game. Pitty they still can't be honest about it. Heartening to see things in so simplistic and honest a delivery. To the point. No mental gymnastics to take a ringroad forty miles around a dead set fact.
Im not racist just extremely sectarian....well im from Armagh ...i like some prods, not sure who yet. The jews and the pakies getting it, all good craic as far as im concearned.

when a rabid hate monger comes along my tolerance goes. Not sure about my patience. Maybe there is no difference. I suppose Michaelhenry was right just to treat him with no measure of seriousness.

2010-08-11T23:24:57.682+01:00

Richard,

Levines description of John Beresford-Ash is entirely correct.
Peter Taylor used him, eloquently in my opinion, as the setting for his book `Loyalists'. His kidnap was also recounted there. Hilariously he explains how he had run out of `gaspers', or cigarettes for those not educated at Eton, and had been kidnapped by the IRA during a late night trip into town to buy some.
As for his encounter with the`Fisherman'- probaly one of the few released from his `keep net'- Frank Hegarty was'nt so lucky.

read the book review by richard
o'rawe, was not going to comment,
untill i read the comments, brianakira comes across a tad cross
still laughing, hope he's on another planet, never mind another country.

the jews sponsoring strongbow, what's wrong with handing over money to a cider company, then i
realised he was on about the first
english, french norman invader of
IRELAND.

the I.R.A was wrong to fight the invader because they were fellow
christians, the brits that is,
never heard that one before,

the nazi's missed you brianakira in
their book burning days,
don't think that i could burn a book,
he's even opposed to stan lee and the sex pistols because of a jew connection,
what about the king of the jews
brianakira, him above,
opposed to god as well.
