@dunstablian You sure about that John, because history says the opposite
@ravisky When you are still still Ravi who feels like he can comment on Irish history without having the first clue what he's talking about
@Sammy28628956 @kangaroos991 You certainly can't argue with anyone when you have no evidence
@Sammy28628956 @kangaroos991 So history records. Just wishing it was true does not make it so. Your statement falls into Hitchens's razor territory-statement made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence, even easier when the guy who spent decades looking at it concluded it never happened
@Sammy28628956 @kangaroos991 They did surrender here and were sunk during Operation Deadlight
@Sammy28628956 @kangaroos991 They were not here during the war independent.co.uk/voices/comment…
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle TBH what you think isn't really emanating from reason but emotion. Nevertheless, you have provided enough time for this discourse to show who has evidence based history to back him up and who [that's you] is talking bollocks. Cheers 😀
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle Yet history clearly shows the assistance the Irish state gave to Allies from the outset of war. Aided Nazis by [checks notes] providing overflight permissions to Allies, and repatriating allied airmen, collaborating closely with MI5 and OSS. Irish diplomats spying for OSS etc
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle You just said neutral, not my fact your frame of reference is broader than you'd like.
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle You should tell the Americans, using that logic they cooperated with Nazi Germany until December 1941. Very binary approach, especially when Irish neutrality wasn't neutral, but pro-allied.
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle Officially neutral but in reality and action benign non-belligerent. Thus all the assistance to allies and nothing to Germany. Glad to see you've drawn back from your initial Ireland sided with Nazis post
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle Have you read anything I've posted? I cant keep spoon-feeding you this
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle You said Ireland sided with Nazis, wrong. Now you're complaining Ireland didn't join the war to stop the genocide. No country joined the war to stop the genocide. No neutral country joined the war without being attacked
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle A review of a book that details Irish cooperation with OSS and MI5. I don't think this is the winner you think it is. The reviewers knowledge on the subjects isn't exactly exhaustive
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle Double requires them to play both sides, Ireland only played one, you can see the list above. Please feel free to show the equivalent list of assistance to Germany...and you say history book when clearly you've not been near one for a while
@barbar95226848 @the_one_cr7 @RachelMoiselle That they didn't should come as a surprise, quite the opposite, it that enough?
@GerBrowne4 Re Francis Edward Holohan, Assistant Steward age 51....
@yeyeIRE @CMaguireart @EylonALevy I never claimed IRA assisted in war crimes. The IRA was a very ineffective organisation during WW2. Abwehr considered them amateurish and militarily insignificant. When interned IRA split into pro-German and anti-fascist factions. 80% quit the organisation by end of war
@slingcamp @Andy_Scollick Considering your understanding of the history is quite weak, I'll help you out (BTW the only country to officially mourn was Salazar's Portugal)
