British Prime Minister David Cameron clashes with Pope Francis over Falkland Islands

You're an ingrate dushlain and for the record I never post out of anger.

IrelandNorth Irish Defence Force(IDF)it's an abbreviation and the rest of my post stands.

Seanomelb is an aussie whose Head of State is the Queen.

Sniff Sniff senomelb. I'll continue to comment anyway. Lord you are an angry person!!!!

melbourne - who are you talking to now? If it's me don't assume anything. I'm flying to Canada tommorow on business but as Arnie famously said "I'll be back."

I think this guy from Melbourne is a nutjob and ashamed of being Irish.

I presume you ccept my post as correct on your misinformation as you fail to reply.Dushlain i will not comment on stupid posts.

Sean from Melbourne - are you in Australia because the modern Irish are somewhat disagreeable to your sense of Irishness or because nobody in Ireland would listen to your bullshit.

Sean, I'm not in the Irish Army. I'm an Engineer.

Gordon Duggan you are moving the goal posts and (diliberately?)misqouting me. The question I asked of A.Bolton was IF SINN FEIN wer elected would she serve, and she repiled that She and her officer friends would defy the elected government. You staed she was a Captain,what rank are you Gordon. You let the cat out of the bag and outed yourself. you are not as smart as you think you are. Furthermore I never stated she was stationed at Cathal Brugha barracks. I said I would be there next year in the mess having some drinks with old comrades. You either need to learn how to disseminate information ( As a Good officer should know) or cease misepresenting me.

IrelandNorth: 99.8%. The other 0.2%, I think you'll find....Gordan Duggan has suggested you learn to read.....I suggest you learn to count also....lol.

IrelandNorth: To answer your questions: 1)The Irish State since 1949 recognised by the United Nations not the "Free State". 2)Mabel Washington McConnell was G. Fitzgerald's mother as already stated. 3) I won't leave Ireland and will stay and oppose any organisation who tries to force us into a United Ireland by force and not consent. 4) Bolton stated she is a Captain. She did not claim to be stationed in Cathal Brugha Barracks in Rathmines, she did not mention which army unit she was in and said she was going on leave soon. Irish Defence Forces are perfectly entitled to have personal opinions. Learn to read properly man.!

Realist! What did the other 2% vote for? ancavkar! The only thing 'good' and 'old' about the good old IRA is distane in historical time. How might future generations view the more recent IRA, in the rear view mirror of their Kia Provos? Gordon Duggan! If the Irish Defence Forces/Army (sic) is the only legitimate military of the Irish State, how historically legitimate is the Irish state which they serve? (I trust your answer will be more correct than about Garret Fitzgerald's mother). If you fear civil disorder from national reintegration, you're always free to leave. And never trust a Private who doesn't know where her barracks is. And why are alleged recruits supposedly on leave posting on websites. Boring holidays? Scouse Tony! The 'IDF' is the Israeli Defence Forces. Armagh City/Brendan Dunphy! Some posters masquerading as Free Staters are in fact fifth columnists.

@GordonDuggan ... You say, "nobody is turning their backs on the north" in one breath, then state the very opposite in the comments that follow. And I highly dispute your claim that it was "never our fight". "Never" your fight?? A history book might help you with that one. That perception and selfishness of today's Irish is precisely why this generation is failing all prior generations, failing their northern brothers and precisely why there is so much disappointment in today's Irish in so many circles. I will leave it at that. Peace.
