The book or the neutrality ??

The world is genuinely all the poorer for Fiskā€™s passing. Dunphy used to have him on all the time when he hosted The Last Word.

This is true. I feel that we have lost a voice of truth. An authentic principled journalist. I am truly sad at this news.

Robert Fisk RIP

I havenā€™t read his Irish neutrality book but as I understand it he argues that neutrality cost De Valera a united Ireland and it sounds like a load of bollocks.

Havenā€™t read it either. It may be a load of bollocks. But what I give him credit for is not accepting the ā€œlineā€. He always seemed to question the official spin.

Heā€™d hardly have been 50?

wouldnā€™t think so, Gary was his brother?

Born 1971

Sacked!
