Ironic that Jeff is a cheerleader for them when he comes from a family of draft dodgers and the only people he has ever used arms against have been women.
@GeoffreyBoycott has utterly destroyed this sunday morning for a few of the usual suspects
Well done Geoff.
ok guys, could the pretend loyalists please refrain from posting for the next hour
it belittles their sacrifice
The back slappers are out in force this morning. Back slapping each other about their imperial overlords sending their subjects to death for nothing
please mate, dont get into a spat when you should be sombre
Take the dog for a walk kid.
im about to
good shout
Are you not commemorating the Italian dead from the First World War? Italy sort of picked the right side in that World War. Didn’t do any fighting with your Kaiser buddy in 1914 but switched sides and threw in your lot with the British and our allies when you saw what way the wind was blowing in 1915.
Trust me, get some air for an hour and come back to it.
Nope.
I think World War I was a futile waste of life.
i just said i was mate
did you miss that
A moving rendition of the National Anthem.
Where were all the Irish during the world wars? At the curragh drunk, playing cards and shooting crows.
30 or 40 thousand Irish men were sent to their deaths in WW1
You are raging. You should go now, come back to it after lunch.
that was world war 2, when the real fighting was going on, the Irish army was hiding above in the curragh, Dev sending telegrams to Hitler’s funeral, after it had be revealed what was going on in the concentration camps, a dark period of oirish history
they died so people like you have the freedom to post shite about them on the INTERNET, you useless bastard, you are a terrible person
They died because your imperial overlords were losing control of their empire and were looking for any reason to join the conflict. Wipe out the main fighting forces of their subject nations.
I’d imagine we’d have better internet if things turned out different
And they died because families like the Boycotts were draft dodgers.
One of the local papers had a list of the 1500 or so (I think) Limerickmen that lost their lives, any of your ancestors?
