Corrections/Disclaimers 0:34 - Yeah I used the St. Patrick Saltire, sue me, but while not being official, it's the only good neutral flag for Northern Ireland. 5:54 - As said in the video, those aren't official flags, because there aren't any official flags for the IRA. Just a bunch and bunch of different unofficial designs that have many different meanings and variants and I had to settle on one. 1:28 - That's modern day Northern Ireland, which is actually ONLY 6 of the 9 counties of the region known as Ulster. I meant to fix that when I realised one late night, but clearly forgot. 2:15 - The bill passed in 1914, not 1912

The methods they used were completely barbaric, and were a complete waste of lives. I sympathise with the nationalist, anti-colonialist impulse, but the IRA was/is a disgusting organisation that brought shame on Irish Nationalism. The British army and loyalist paramilitaries are not morally clean either, but have some self-awareness. There’s blood on both sides and that’s why this conflict is so stagnated

English and Irish have the same common ancestors; who are likely to have come from the Spanish Iberian peninsula first, settling the Netherlands, before eventually coming to the British isles. All this trouble was fought by people who are essentially the same people but developed very differently due to being separated by a sea and migrations into England such as the Romans, Anglo-saxons and Vikings.

...”leading to the unfortunate death of four civilians”. Obviously this is a very brief “light touch” video designed to give the uninitiated some background to the poorly-understood Troubles of 69-98. However I’d really encourage people to read much more about the conflict, the people who died and the motivations of various people who became involved. There’s a danger that if people just watch these bite size videos and do nothing else, the conflict will seem glib or inconsequential. The people killed during the Falls Curfew (from Wiki with a couple of notes from me): Charles O'Neill, a 36-year-old Catholic civilian, died on 3 July after being knocked down by a British Saracen APC on the Falls Road during the initial rioting.According to eyewitnesses, he walked out on to the road and attempted to flag down the APCs, but the lead vehicle sped up and "deliberately" ran him down. One eyewitness said that soldiers prodded O'Neill in the ribs and that one of them remarked: "Move on you Irish bastard - there are not enough of you dead". O'Neill was an invalided ex-serviceman. (note: this means he was actually a former British soldier/sailor/airman retired on health grounds!) William Burns, a 54-year-old Catholic civilian, was shot dead, likely from a ricochet, at the front door of his home on the Falls Road on 3 July. He had just finished chatting to a neighbour when he was shot in the chest. The shooting took place at about 8:20pm, almost two hours before the curfew was announced. A pathologist said that the bullet had likely been a ricochet. Patrick Elliman, a 62-year-old Catholic civilian, was shot in the head on Marchioness Street on the night of 3 July and died of his wounds on 10 July. He had walked to the end of the street in his night clothes "for a breath of fresh air". Elliman was taken away in an ambulance. However, it was searched and re-routed by the British Army, which meant that it took thirty minutes to reach the Royal Victoria Hospital a few hundred yards away. That night, British soldiers broke into Elliman's home and quartered themselves there for the night. Zbigniew Uglik, a 23-year-old of Polish heritage who lived in England, was shot dead at the rear of a house on 4 July. He was an amateur photographer and had been taking photographs of the riots. Uglik was in a house at Albert Street, at the edge of the curfew zone, and decided to fetch another camera from the hotel where he was staying. A British Army sniper shot him as he climbed over the back wall of the house, shortly after midnight. Another 60 civilians suffered gunshot wounds. It’s important to emphasise that Northern Ireland had, almost since its inception, operated under a law which enabled the authorities to stop an inquest from happening if it were thought not conducive to the good of the state. Most civilian deaths at the hands of the army were not investigated with any rigour and even today, some inquests from the early 1970s are only just happening. I hope that people read more into the deaths of people during the Troubles to highlight some of the human costs of the conflict, whether they were British Army soldiers, loyalists, republicans or civilians. Everyone was someone’s loved one.

Peter let’s not forget that over all out of everyone killed by the IRA it’s estimated that 34% were civilians and out of everyone killed by the UVF 84% were civilians (roughly) The IRA targeted loyalists, police and army, whereas loyalists drove around and picked out the first catholic they could find and shot them dead. John Bingham ran a UVF gang that killed 5 innocent Catholics, the provies killed him and they responded by killing an arcade owner, 2 church goers, and petrol bombed two young catholic families out of their homes. Johnny Adair wore Celtic shirts/ patches in his car when driving in catholic areas when he was choosing what innocent catholic he wanted to kill. Michael Stone chucked hand grenades into a crowd killing one volunteer and 2 civilians with a blatant disregard for the men, women, and children mourning there. And he only done it after learning that the army wasn’t there and that the PIRA weren’t doing a show of strength. The IRA done horrible things but nothing compared to what loyalists had done, the IRA were an army with a cause, loyalists were murdering drug gangs, just ask Jim gray and his son, oh wait... ;) Tiocfaidh ár lá mo chara

Bloody Sunday is also not given proper prominence or explanation in this video. It was the marquee atrocity of the 1970s by some distance. Not only in its execution, or brazenness, but by the fact the people who committed murder were able to lie, and actively encouraged and enabled to lie by the state. The deceased were blamed for their own deaths and slandered beyond any comprehension. The real legacy of Bloody Sunday wasn’t the 13 dead (it was not 14; the Savile Tribunal accepted at its outset a submission from John Johnston’s own family that his injuries on the day could not be linked to his death some months later - be careful when using Wiki as a source!). The real tragedy was the lies and blackening of Derry’s people. Nobody who died had done anything wrong. Substantial evidence points to individual Paras wanting to let loose some live rounds regardless of the events of the day, and it’s too simple to say “well stones were thrown and this provoked the Army”. Stone throwing was a performative and ritualised act by 1972. Stones would be thrown, the Army would bring in water cannon or rubber bullets and chase you up the street - rinse and repeat. It is not pleasant to have missiles thrown at you but equally it is not a defence to murder. The people killed on Bloody Sunday posed absolutely no threat whatsoever to the soldiers who killed them and it is wrong to omit this from the explanation in the video. That is a fact borne out by the most expensive tribunal in British history and it ought to have been included.

@Johnon please do some research. You say that we shouldn't have rely on potato though you convienaintly forgot the seizure of irish chieftain lands which directly violated a official treaty. which then led to the irish having limited land as the English owned most of it and rent was too high for very poor land. Due to the high rent only small parts of land were bought by irish peasants. there was not a lot of land to grow for example corn. so the irish were basicly FORCED to use potatoes as there was not enough land to feed a family using corn but potatoes grow more densely so the small amount of land would be more efficient. Do some fucking research please as this spreads misinformation

+ The Troubles nearly 20 Years ago anyway. Most people have moved on from this conflict and I am glad that Northern Ireland has now, for nearly 20 years had the devolved Government it has and should have been given on. It is worth noting that Northern Ireland did have its own parliament from 1921, until 1972, when it was disbanded by the UK Government. They transferred the nation to direct control from London, England. The office of Governor of Northern Ireland was also abolished. I don't know why though! And it was another 26 years, before the current incarnation the Northern Ireland Assembly was first elected on 25 June 1998 and first met on 1 July 1998.

In truth, there were a great many more than one million people who died in An Gorta Mor ( the Great Famine). Ireland was united across the majority of the people, even among many Catholic and Protestant factions, just prior to the famine, and were determined to free Ireland once and for all from British involvement altogether. An Gorta Mor occurred on the verge of the country declaring that independence, and at the point where they had the strongest front ever in regards to seeing it through. After the famine, between those who died and the rest, who immigrated, the population of Ireland has been around a quarter of what it was prior to the event, and has remained so since. The potential to fight for independence has never been anywhere close to what it was prior to the famine.

Come tell us how you slew Them ol' Arabs two by two, Like the Zulus they had knives and bows and arrows; Of how bravely you faced one with your sixteen-pounder gun, And you frightened all the natives to the marrow. Come out you black and tans, Come out and fight me like a man, Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders; Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away, From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra. Come let us hear you tell How you slammed the brave Parnell, And taught him well and truly persecuted; Where are the stares and jeers that you proudly let us hear, When our heroes of sixteen were executed. Come out you black and tans, Come out and fight me like a man, Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders; Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away, From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra. Oh! Come out you British Huns, Come out and fight without your guns, Show your wife how you won medals up in Derry; You murdered sixteen men and you'll do the same again, So get out of here and take your bloody army. Come out you black and tans, Come out and fight me like a man, Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders; Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away, From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra. Oh!

My granny had to deal with a good bit of it but doesn't really talk to us about it, which might be understandable and my great-granddad ran a rather profitable business at the ship yard so he had to deal with paramilitaries and those sorts a lot. The troubles is one of my favourite topics to discuss because of how close it is to me and my family. Sorry, I'll leave now

I don't think there was ever a more psychologically and emotionally traumatizing period in Irish history than the Troubles and that includes Cromwell nearly massacring half of the Irish population.

I don't support what we did to the Irish population. I am not sure about Southern Ireland's independence, but I am sure I'd like to see Ulster reunited with its all 9 counties, and loyal to the UK. From my point of view, the IRA were terrorists, just as bad as our commanders there.

As an unbiased spectator, just someone who has researched this extensively I have to say. Although you mention that there will be plenty of biased or opinionated people calling for "corrections" , this video is simply poorly done and poorly reported. And because of this its grossly misreporting what actually happened. Missing huge gaps of extremely important information - trying to report on the troubles, which essentially is years and years of history and violence, is no easy task but if you're going to do it, you need to do it right. This is especially evident in how you talk of the troubles starting - no, not in 69, 68 is unfortunately credited as the year the troubles truly began. The unrest wasn't because Catholics "perceived" that they were being discriminated against, political unrest came from institutionalised discrimination. In England, a law had just passed so that women could have abortions, in Northern Ireland catholic women couldn't even vote. The "special powers act" meant that the ruling forces, who were all protestant, could "take all such steps and issue all such orders as may be necessary for preserving the peace and maintaining order" which could literally mean a year in prison, with hard labour, whipping, destruction of building, anything. Now, just as a law this seems harsh, but what kind of crimes could warrant that? well, speaking gaeilge, wearing gaelic jerseys (Irelands national sport), or being from a "Republican family" (which could just be hearsay). It was literally made to stamp out Irish culture and heritage, and to punish those who attempted to hold on to it. This is what lead to the troubles - and on the 5th of October, a civil rights protest was organised against these, and other issues (such as Catholic people being completely disadvantaged in their education, housing and work) and during this protest the civil authorities entered the unarmed crowd of civilians and beat them with batons. Over 40 people, INCLUDING CHILDREN, were injured and hospitalised.
