    They weren't okay with it Lindsay. So they spent the best part of eight hundred years trying to wipe the people that pronounce Siobhán and similar, off the face of the earth. We still don't see the funny side. As you'll have noticed.
    Why is everyone okay with the way “Siobhan” is pronounced?

    Especially considering ALL the dead people you have to disrespect in order respect her! There's way more of them, and THEY were actually powerless!

    So in essence, if Israel DO attack the Irish post in Lebanon, they will be doing so with weapons and munition that OUR government allowed them to transport, illegally, through our airspace?

    My mother didn't learn English until she was 14. When she had dementia because of a stroke, and reverted to only Irish, not ONE medical professional who dealt with her could speak it. Not fucking one. It's not Irish speakers fault your kids can't get exemptions for the Leaving.

    They went without the children from Lisdoonvarna because of restrictions on Direct Provision. There's no 'feelgood' factor on that lads.
    Young Irish rappers Kabin Crew and Lisdoonvarna Crew have made their European music festival debut performing their global viral hit #TheSpark in front of 15,000 people at #Pukkelpop in Belgium.

    Anyone who has a problem with this has only ever seen sean nós dancing on telly. Dancers mix stuff in ALL THE TIME. The first time I saw the Moonwalk in sean nós was about 1985, by a man called Máirtín Sheáinín. Take it up with the ancestors if you don't like it. 😘

    Is putting your hands around someone's neck and threatening to shoot a child a common part of meditation circles? Where do you practice this meditation?

    Genocides: Ireland 🇮🇪 0
    #Israel has fought 4 wars for its survival against Islamist enemies since its birth as a state. #Ireland has fought 0. Rule of thumb: If you have no experience and don't know what you're talking about, it's usually prudent to not offer unsolicited "advice" #IsraelUnderAttack
    Readers added context
    Whilst Ireland has not fought against Islamic attackers, it has an extensive history of fighting for the survival of its people and state against external forces. Ireland also has a history of sympathising with oppressed people due to its own history of oppression en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_c… en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Iris…

    He is 37 years old. His PENSION is going to cost the country more than all those scholiosis operations he didn't bother his hole providing after he promised them. There are young spines that will grow crooked in this country to pay for his useless *career*.

    Rather than deal with gun violence they trained a generation of CHILDREN how to band together and contain scary men with guns. They even taught them how to keep scary men with guns out of classrooms. Rather than deal with guns, the trained then to do THIS, from kindergarten.

    Ah, so we should all just sit down and shut up? I see. That sounds about right.
