If you don't dispute my descriptions of how the six counties were decided on and their annexation was carried through, Mexico is no comparison. Force was used to create an openly declared Protestant State which marginalised and excluded the Catholic population - I take it the same didn't happen in Mexico - or did it?
Perhaps you'd like to examine the voting rights that the Catholic population had at the time of the seizure to decide whether the annexation was valid or not.
"No excuse for acting the fascist today."
We are discussing the murder of unarmed civilians and the cover up of same - last week's news, not the dim and distant past.
The murders happened nearly forty years ago - we are discusing them now because the British establishment has continued the cover-up till now.
You are still arguing for the status quo, which means the continuance of the violence - almost certainly to the next generation.
Have a good marching season.
