|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Charley Noble Date: 08 Nov 09 - 01:01 PM I'm assuming there was a link above that didn't work, or is there universal knowledge about this person? Here's a story which refutes the accusation: click here for story Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 08 Nov 09 - 01:16 PM "Charles Powell, the assistant editor of Stacey International, expects the book to sell well." I think that says enough about what lies behind this. A good conspiracy theory always sells well. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 08 Nov 09 - 01:27 PM Sounds like more bumff for the recycle bin. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: The Sandman Date: 08 Nov 09 - 01:36 PM Why was he never executed,yet Casement and Pearse were. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 08 Nov 09 - 01:54 PM De Valera was sentenced to death, but sentence commuted to life imprisonment. He was a U. S. citizen, complicating the situation, and the British wanted American support for the war, which the Americans did not enter until 1917. The Irish struggle was long and complicated; there are many books about the participants and the politics of the time. No sense in going through all of the history here at mudcat. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Amergin Date: 08 Nov 09 - 02:17 PM And that information is easily found by using a unique tool called a search engine....also the whole Ireland thing has been covered here numerous times in the past...and I believe that this claim was too.... As much as think Devalera was a wanker...I find it hard to believe he was a spy for the Brits... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: The Sandman Date: 08 Nov 09 - 02:25 PM quite right he was a Wanker. But I am prepared to Keep an open mind on it ,its a possibility. I mean I would never have suspected that Buckton and Gormley[70s union leader]were reporting back to MI5,on their union meetings. but thats how the British Establishment managed things. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 08 Nov 09 - 03:22 PM Maybe they never landed on the Moon. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 08 Nov 09 - 03:23 PM ho-hum. Play it over and over again. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: GUEST,Garryowen Date: 08 Nov 09 - 04:07 PM I reckon anyone who can't spell Dev's name correctly and reckons 'quite right he was a Wanker' has little of value to say on Irish history. But what do you expect from a West Cork Brit? |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: catspaw49 Date: 08 Nov 09 - 04:22 PM ah yes..............***sigh***............And now the thread moves to the usual UK infighting that is sooo important to this site............11 posts and its time for some ass kicking. Hold up just a second til I get a snack and kick my recliner back...................okay....all set here.....go for it you Brittywanks........let it fly!!!! Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: GUEST,Garryowen Date: 08 Nov 09 - 04:30 PM I'm from Mayo. This has nothing to do with 'the usual UK infighting'. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 08 Nov 09 - 04:31 PM Not the UK in this case. For which some of the thanks lie with Dev, whatever his imperfections. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: catspaw49 Date: 08 Nov 09 - 04:45 PM For those of us in the colonies its all about the same one way or another. But never fear.....We get the same thing dumbass stuff over here and I can guarantee this thread will become populated with the usual suspects just as the threads about, say 9/11 do as well. I personally don't give a rats's ass one way, one side, one group, or another. T'is sadly the way of the 'Cat nowadays........... Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: The Sandman Date: 08 Nov 09 - 06:00 PM De Valera.apologies for spelling his name incorrectly, how does it then follow that I know little of Irish History. we have an intersting theory, which may or may not be true, what relevance does my nationality or where I live have. is there is an assumption that I might be anti irish? because I am critical of De Valera? even if Ithink he is a Wanker, which I do, I said that I had an open mind on the possibilty of him being a spy. I think the present situation in Ireland,owes more to the efforts of Collins and those who signed the treaty,than De Valera,the man who[imo] set Collins up,and then afterwards led the opposition,the man who formerly offerd his condolences to the German Ambassador in Dublin at the time of Hitlers death ,and the man who got himself involved in a trade war that he couldnt possibly win. De Valera the great man who replaced the first constitution with a constitution that among other things included elements of Catholic social teaching incorporated into the text, such as the articles on the role of women, the family and divorce, which were inconsistent both with the practice of the Protestant minority and with contemporary liberal opinion De Valera who got Ireland involved in an Anglo-Irish Trade War (also called the "Economic War") was a retaliatory trade war between the Irish Free State and the United Kingdom (UK) lasting from 1932 until 1938. It involved the refusal of the Irish Government to continue to reimburse Britain with the "land annuities" derived from financial loans granted by Britain to Irish tenant farmers to enable them purchase lands under the Irish Land Acts during the previous half century, a provision which was part of the 1921 Anglo-Irish Treaty. This resulted in the imposition of unilateral trade restrictions by both countries, which caused severe damage to the Irish economy. De Valera,may well have had right on his side,but therewas no way he was going to win that,the result was ordinary Irish people suffered, De Valera and MichaelCollins; After his return from America in December 1920, de Valera's relationship with Michael Collins, who had effectively masterminded the IRA campaign in his absence, came under strain as differences emerged over the conduct of the Anglo-Irish War. These were accentuated when de Valera decided not to lead the Irish delegation that negotiated the Anglo-Irish treaty. There have been two opposing interpretations of this decision. The more hostile view is that he allowed Collins to take the responsibility for what he knew would be a partial surrender. His own explanation was that by staying in Dublin he could better preserve national unity and ensure general acceptance of any agreement reached.[this is utter bollocks,why send Collins who was a military man rather than a clever politician, Collins could have kept order at home,and would have been more suited to the job] if he was an English spy,it might explain why he syaed at home I do not believe his explanation, for the above reasons I echo Amergins sentiments about Wanker. but perhaps cunning little weasel is more apt. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 08 Nov 09 - 08:11 PM Yes, too bad the Brits didn't execute them all. Too argumentative by half. |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Charley Noble Date: 08 Nov 09 - 08:46 PM Good Soldier Schweik- It's just that you are so tedious. Now is that enough attention? Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: GUEST,Goose Gander Date: 09 Nov 09 - 12:44 AM I also heard that Mussolini was a British spy . . . so who was playing whom? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: catspaw49 Date: 09 Nov 09 - 12:57 AM Actually Good Soldier Schweik and Mussolini were playing "Ben Hur." Benito played Ben and Good Soldier Schweik played Hur.................go figure. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: Bryn Pugh Date: 09 Nov 09 - 03:55 AM Whether de Valera was or was not a wanker, I hold him personally responsible for the death of every man, woman and child in the Civil War. What he got in 1932 he could have had in 1922. How different it might have been had Collins lived. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: De Velara a British Spy From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 09 Nov 09 - 11:02 AM If de Valera had backed the Treaty in 22 there would still have been plenty who wouldn't have. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 09 Nov 09 - 02:16 PM Yep, an argumentative bunch. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Den Date: 09 Nov 09 - 03:36 PM de Valera landed on the moon? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: GUEST,Chris B (Born Again Spy) Date: 10 Nov 09 - 08:40 AM I remember when I was active in CND in the 80s the Sun and the tories were always saying we were in the pay of the Kremlin. I wish.... |

Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Little Hawk Date: 10 Nov 09 - 09:22 AM The thing that really needs to be looked into is the never adequately documented yet still crucial role that chimpanzees played in the Irish conflict between 1901 and 1920. Were they agents for the crown or genuine patriots to the cause of freedom in Ireland? Or both? (chimps do sometimes disagree on political matters) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 10 Nov 09 - 01:51 PM Or were they just paid mercenaries? Workin' for the ripe banana! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Little Hawk Date: 10 Nov 09 - 03:37 PM That is a disturbing but quite plausible theory... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Paul Burke Date: 10 Nov 09 - 03:43 PM De Valera was a Spanish name, him and Franco Farrell. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Little Hawk Date: 10 Nov 09 - 03:44 PM Was he a descendant of survivors of the Spanish Armada? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: catspaw49 Date: 10 Nov 09 - 04:11 PM Francisco Franco is still dead. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Paul Burke Date: 10 Nov 09 - 05:08 PM That's Francisco, his Californian relative. I'm talking about the Franco from Cork and Manchester. There was Franco Connor too, he was much more up Devil Era's street. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Little Hawk Date: 10 Nov 09 - 06:16 PM Jimmy Hoffa's still dead too. Not that it matters. But he is. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Art Thieme Date: 10 Nov 09 - 06:44 PM Wanker = jag-off, correct? Please define your terms! Art |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Little Hawk Date: 11 Nov 09 - 01:01 AM That is correct, Art. Another charming term meaning the same as wanker and jag-off is the delightful British term: "tosser" Tosser and wanker are interchangeable. I think the Brits needed two terms to cover the concept because of the extraordinarily common incidence of that particular habit among British males. To have only one popular word for it just wouldn't be enough! ;-) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Bryn Pugh Date: 11 Nov 09 - 04:06 AM Whereas the Wanks - sorry ! Yanks - have at least five, to my knowledge : Jag-off Jack-off; Beat the Meat ; Joss off ; Wind the Watch ; What were you saying about extraordinary common incidences, LH ? |

Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: GUEST,Chris B (Born Again Scouser) Date: 11 Nov 09 - 07:58 AM Bonnie, Having lived in the US during the 80s I can quite understand the need for Americans to have so many different terms to describe the one activity. It is a big country, after all. |

Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Bryn Pugh Date: 11 Nov 09 - 08:33 AM Good Grief ! What happened to the old J. Arthur ?? (UK rhyming slang). P S what happened to de Valera . . . ? Just thought I'd ask . . . . |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: catspaw49 Date: 11 Nov 09 - 09:53 AM Probably died choking his chicken...........read: its a dumbass troll type of thread and its too late for anyone short of a total wanker to really give a shit. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: The Sandman Date: 11 Nov 09 - 01:04 PM Catspaw 49 ,if you dont like the thread, go and find another. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: catspaw49 Date: 11 Nov 09 - 01:41 PM Oh, I'm having a perfectly good time here myself. I'm looking forward to Hawk supplying more information about the role of the Chimps in all this. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: The Sandman Date: 11 Nov 09 - 02:35 PM oh, are you how jolly,you complain about the thread then go about enjoying yourself.spaws obviusly an expert on wanking. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 11 Nov 09 - 02:38 PM Thread started by a troll, but Catspaw's list makes it worthwhile. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Crow Sister (off with the fairies) Date: 11 Nov 09 - 02:48 PM Why the need to label GSS a 'troll'? Not knowing a great deal about the people and events involved (bar de Valera's desertion of Collins & his men), it seems a genuinely interesting story that the Good Soldiers flagged up to my mind. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: catspaw49 Date: 11 Nov 09 - 03:03 PM On Mudcat this qualifies as "troll type" since the subject matter draws contentiousness like flies to a dung heap. Granted that folks like Hawk and I aren't adding anything but we are certainly enjoying ourselves. This of course doesn't stop any real historical content from being added but then Hawk and I don't mind the interuption either! Besides, the Chimp angel just might be the key to unearthing newfound theories on motivation and purposes. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Little Hawk Date: 11 Nov 09 - 03:10 PM Exactly what I was thinking. Hey, Good Soldier, you have no idea... What Spaw doesn't know about wanking simply isn't worth knowing. ;-) Trust me. After all, he spent many years reading the comic Cheech Wizard, and he liked it! Anyone who does that has gotta be the ne plus ultra of wankers, the apotheosis of degenerate tossers extraordinaire, the final fecking word on the subject. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: de Valera a British Spy From: Amergin Date: 11 Nov 09 - 03:14 PM I wonder, Little Hawk, how you came by such personal knowledge on Spaw's wanking abilities? |
