GUEST,Cranky Yankee	BS: Shame on the British (93* d)	BS: re:Shame on the British.	14 Oct 03
If you're going to cry about history, at least get the history straight. Ireland was repeatedly invaded by foreign peoples who stayed on and became "Irish" Bodicca was Iceni, not Celt. The Picts, and Britons were also their own tribes and not Celts French speaking Belgians are Celts, but the Iceni weren't. The Welsh people of today are the Britons of yesteryear. What is an illegal occupation? Are Canada, The USA , Mexico, etc illegally occupying their lands? You win a war, you occup[y. That's part of "Survival of the fittest". Are the people of the Irish Republic illegally occupying what was part of the British Empire? Of course not. They claimed their land by force of arms, and rightly so. "DIALECTIC MATERIALISM" IS WHAT THE COMMUNISTS CALLED, "HISTORY AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN" and we all know what happened to them.
