  1. Tarnished Icon? My understanding was that he upset those who must not be upset.

  2. Also - the Canadian authorities persecuted and then imprisoned Pastor Artur Pawlowski for refusing to close his church during the "pandemic". They continue to harass him and his family to this day. Pawlowski fled Poland to escape communism - only to end up becoming a political prisoner of the same types of people in Canada.

  3. I don't know: there are just too many holes in Mel's story.

  4. Someone tried to tell me the indentured servant myth a few months ago: I said "No. Between 1650 and 1660 alone, a quarter of a million Irish men, women and children were sold to slave shops bound for the Caribbean. Just that decade alone."

  5. I recently had a brief argument with someone on youtube who said "I'm a Northern Irish Catholic and I can tell you the Irish were never slaves: some of them were indentured slaves": I told him he doesn't know his own history: and a majority of Irish people don't know their own history: I blame Irish historians and the education system for that.

  6. In fact Ireland's history is far worse than you probably realise, even now, after this documentary: there is an excellent book called 'The Priest Hunters' by Colin Murphy - it details the period of the Penal Laws and it is absolutely shocking.

  8. The history of Ireland is like the history of African slavery, the holocaust and the trail of tears combined but far, far worse: even the "potato famine" was a lie. All produce was extracted from the country to starve the nation to death and use the land as Britain's bread basket. For some reason even Irish authorities and historians still refer to it as a "potato" famine. Interestingly the Turkish Ottomans tried, at one stage, to get shiploads of food to the country to help, but their ships were blockaded by the British.

  9. Not all the world. And Ireland is unique in that its history has been swept under the carpet with the notable exception of those like 'Forgotten Histories'.

  10. A lot of things about Ireland's history have been kept swept under the carpet: for instance, during the Penal laws there were fully paid bounty hunters that would hunt down and kill priests: if they killed one or turned one over to the authorities, they received a pension for life (paid for from taxes forced from the peasantry): it was a very lucrative business. Also, the famine was more of a holodmor than a famine: it was not a failure of potatoes, it was a deliberate extraction of all produce from Ireland: The Turkish Ottomans even tried to send food into the country to help but that was blockaded by the British.
