"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake" is a famous strategic maxim widely attributed to French military leader Napoleon Bonaparte.
Unionism, in the throes of watching impotently and powerlessly, as their immediate former leader is sentenced for years of pedophilic abuse of children, as the discussion on Irish Unity gets global (even reaching the international news via Unionism's good friend Trump), and Nationalism confidently holds discussions in Ireland, America, Australia, Canada and the EU on planning for a referendum, while the end game to partition is discussed by Congressmen, MPs, TDs, and MEPs.
Meanwhile, Unionism has allowed an unelected and unelectable idiot to be their leading protagonist. His only claim to fame is continuous unwarranted promotion by a dismal, B-list TV host who has described him as a "loyalist linked to the East Belfast UVF," He denied this, of course.
The only strategy he employs is to attempt to rekindle the dead embers of a debate that was over 28 years ago, buried along with the tragic Quinn Children and 18 other Catholics/Nationalists murdered by supporters of the Orange efforts to triumphantly parade their anti Catholic, and anti Irish bigotry through a peaceful community, which rejects their confrontational antagonism.
We are even witnessing the collapse in support for Unionism as a broad tent, as horrified decent Protestants or people with a British identity stand in solidarity with the people of Garvaghy Road, against such atavistic behaviour.
It is clear that this loyalist/Unionist strategy has become Shakespearean tragedy as this fool
"...is a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more.
It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"

John Taylor lecturing anyone about Garvaghy Road takes some brass neck.
This is the same John Taylor who, during Drumcree in 1998, reportedly warned an Irish official that if the Orange march didn’t proceed, “the Garvaghy Road won’t exist.”
And perhaps we should remember some of his other contributions to community relations from
John, in 1993 he suggested increasing fear among Catholics might actually be “helpful”, and after five innocent Catholics were murdered by the UDA at Sean Graham’s bookmakers, he linked their deaths to the IRA’s earlier Teebane massacre.
So forgive me if I don’t regard Lord Kilclooney as the great authority on protecting the interests of the Garvaghy Road community.
Nor is expressing concern about a Parades Commission decision the same thing as overruling it. The Irish Government explicitly said the legal process should be respected while expressing concern about the traumatic history of Garvaghy Road.
And there’s an extraordinary historical irony here: the man now objecting to Dublin having anything to say about Garvaghy Road is the same man who was reportedly speaking directly to an Irish government official about Garvaghy Road during Drumcree in 1998.
Perhaps some voices from the past demonstrate perfectly why the north needed to move beyond the politics of that era.

Some of the $730 million Hasbara budget was spent on Ireland over the last week.
There will be more newspaper articles ... Limerick pogrom 1904, Dev, Ulysses, soccer matches in 1930's & how we've found a new religion to replace our Catholicism. The articles write themselves at this stage. Funny how none of these were an issue before 2023; Dev getting a forest named after him in Jerusalem & Jewish leaders praising Ireland.
WSJ is due an article any day now to continue it's onslaught, followed by other pro-Israel publications, Jerusalem, London & elsewhere. Our man in Connecticut will come up with more vacuous tripe.
Local social media commentators will row in behind the Hasbara with "our global reputation is in tatters - we told you so", as they say we are obsessed, while themselves using hysterical language such as "lynching" mob etc., as they retweet ad nauseum anti-Irish whataboutery. Engagement farming with caution. Their emotional content is with one side, because they too have dehumanised those slaughtered. They are expendable ... "because Hamas". "Is there any other solution", many of them will ask?
The pro-Israel lot will not deal with the slaughter or its justification. It's all whataboutery to smear.
"What about Sudan", I get constantly from people who couldn't pick out Sudan on a map. The have never commented on it other that to say "what about Sudan"?
It's all to smear & silence our objection to the slaughter of civilians, including 22,000 children & the ongoing and active ethnic cleansing, continuing occupation & oppression being carried out by Israel. A country that has Govt. ministers that have made statements that only the worst of humanity could make.
There were Israeli settlers triumphantly dancing and intimidating Palestinians in West Bank towns last night forcing Palestinians to lock themselves into their homes. Irish people understand this form of bigotry and intimidation. Irish people understand occupation & they will continue to stand against ongoing ethnic cleansing and slaughter despite the $730m Hasbara budget. Whatever was spent over last week, and will be spent next week, will have been wasted.

"Lo que más me dolió en Gaza es ver como niños necesitan amputaciones e Israel bloquea la entrada de anestesia y medicamentos, por lo que tienes que amputar el brazo a un niño sin anestesia, entonces estás rezando para que se desmaye del dolor y no lo hace".

A Video Zionists don't want you to see.
Jews marched against Israel and Zionism in Washington DC.
Zionism is NOT Judaism.
Israel is NOT the Jewish people.
Israel does NOT represent Jews or Judaism.
We call out to President Trump:
Zionism is not Judaism. Israel is not the state of the Jews. Zionist lobbies can never speak on behalf of the Jewish people and represent them.
Jews want the United States to be saved from the occupation of Zionist lobbies.
AOC: When you see what Robert Kraft did to line up all the stadiums to censor speech in that one specific way, it's become clear it's not just about one music artist or two music artists, but this is about how just a handful of stadium owners and the elite can prevent an entire massive issue, in this case, the genocide in gaza—

"If you're Jewish or non-Jewish, please, let the world know:
Jews all over the world are not responsible for the actions of the Zionist State of Israel!
Israel doesn't represent the Jewish people!"

Maureen Lipman is a hypocrite
She refuses to work with people who are pro-Palestinian, yet she complains about pro-Palestinian people who refuse to work with her
She is a typical Zionist extremist. She hates being on the receiving end of her own tactics, then plays the victim

Her dog wasn’t an assistance dog. I’m led to believe that the animal itself had attacked the family pet of the people that owned the cafe (as per Reddit) and this is the second attempt to sue - she incorrectly sued Bernera Community Development Trust (1/2)

The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
