Thread Name: Which Irish Troubles Songs are Offensive
Subject: RE: Which Irish Troubles Songs are Offensive
I am 100% certain that UDI is a typo... Stan knew better than to make a mistake like that... Also Jeri is correct... how can anyone mistake what he is singing *yet the dmn U.D.L.* for U.D.I.??

"What is shameful about the right of a people to self determination."

You're missing THE most important line in the song... "For causes are ashes where children lie slain"... Both sides have committed so many atrocities that neither can be let off...

I'll have no truck with either side of that bullshit! You wanna? Take it over there, where it belongs...
