Irish Threatened with “Disastrous Consequences” Over Rejection of Lisbon Treaty

October 15, 2008
It would seem Brussels has had it with Ireland’s intransigence over the Lisbon Treaty and “European integration,” that is to say creating a European superstate.

|
| Elmar Brok, described as an influential German Christian Democratic Union member of the European Parliament, has threatened Dublin with "disastrous consequences" if the Irish leadership refuses to impose yet another referendum on the Irish people. | |

According to the German Foreign Policy website, Elmar Brok, described as an influential German Christian Democratic Union member of the European Parliament, has threatened Dublin with “disastrous consequences” if the Irish leadership refuses to impose yet another referendum on the Irish people, who rejected the treaty in June, even though they were “threatened, cajoled, blackmailed and bullied” to accept by Ireland’s elite, as the Telegraph put it.
Specifically, Ireland faces sanctions, including the prospect of renouncing its EU commissioner.
“Members of the government as well as high-ranking representatives of influential parties have already spoken out in favor of a second referendum. But the mood in the population is what worries them. The government would like to prolong preparations for ratification because opinion polls have recently exposed that currently more than 70 percent of the Irish are against a repeat of the referendum and – far more than in the first — nearly two-thirds will vote ‘NO’ if the referendum is repeated.”
Even so, the SPD European parliamentarian, Jo Leinen, has told the Irish foreign minister he expects ratification to take place long before the European Parliamentary elections, slated for next March. Apparently, much of this increased pressure on Ireland comes ahead of a change of government in London. “Though the British Parliament has already ratified the ‘Lisbon Treaty,’ the Conservative Party, if it should win the coming elections, as opinion polls are predicting, is planning a referendum on the question,” explains the German website.
- A d v e r t i s e m e n t
If the British people are allowed a referendum on the issue, they will likely go the way of the Irish, as the Irish went to the way of the French and Dutch before them — when put to a vote, the EU is roundly rejected by most Europeans. Gordon Brown understands this well enough, as he ruled out a referendum before flying off to Lisbon to sign a new European Union Treaty last October, even though polls indicated nearly 70 percent of the British people wanted a national referendum to decide the issue.
Elmar Brok claims the CIA and “US military and espionage circles” are behind efforts to sabotage the Lisbon Treaty. “The CIA is seeking by this means to weaken the EU and thereby hold back a rival that has been growing stronger,” notes the German Foreign Policy website. “Since WW II employees of the US military and US intelligence services have, not only officially been represented in Germany and Europe, and since the 1940s, the CIA has been engaged in undercover activities.”
In fact, the opposite appears to be the case. According to William Wolf, the CIA financed an effort to create a system of European governance, a system originally designed by Nazi Minister of Finance, Walter Funk.
The Fabian Society, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, the Bilderberg Group, and the Trilateral Commission “have worked, in effect, to blend Nazi pan-Europeanism with Communist Internationalism to create the global, oligarchic, corporate system,” explains Wolf.
In 1987, the late senator Jesse Helms denounced this fascist scheme and implicated “the State Department, the Trade Department, certain banking and financial groups, multinationals and tax-exempt foundations [saying that they were effectively controlled by] organizations such as the CFR, the RIIA, the Trilateral Commission, the Dartmouth and Bilderberg Meetings, the Aspen Institute and the Atlantic Institute”, which are, he said, “using them to spread and coordinate plans for a so-called New World Order, serving the business and financial channels of the political world…”
Obviously, the New World Order will not be deterred by the resounding rejection of the Lisbon Treaty by the people of Ireland. In order to get their globalist plan back on track, they are now issuing threats against Ireland.
It is interesting, however, to note that the corporate media has yet to report these threats, but then, as David Rockefeller revealed on June 8th, 1991 in a speech delivered in Essen, West Germany, the corporate media is a handmaiden to the global elite. “It would have been quite impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity,” declared Rockefeller.

These people are bastards. So much for a free EU, where each member gets a say.

The rats in the EU are spreading their poison around.
At least the Irish have their heads together..
October 15th, 2008 at 10:00 am
Let them bring the vote again, we’ll just vote no again. The Irish are even less happy about another EU referendum after the recent budget to help pay for the banksters.
Bring it on I say….the worse it gets the more people will see through it all.
October 15th, 2008 at 10:09 am
No fool, bring the vote again???? what if it is Rigged??
October 15th, 2008 at 10:13 am
I always liked ireland for nothing other than their world famous fightin spirit. Keep up the fight boys
October 15th, 2008 at 10:22 am
Not a good idea to threaten a nation of bomb builders. No one can build a home made bomb like an East Indian or an Irishman. Go Ireland!!!! Time for the IRA to travel to Europe.
October 15th, 2008 at 10:30 am
We have to remember that the Irish weren’t the only people in Europe to reject this filthy power grabbing treaty, the French and the Dutch also rejected it but were ignored, most other people in Europe didn’t even get a say. The scum that run the EU are so smug that they will even break their own laws when it suits them, before the Irish said no it was the “law” that if any one nation in the EU rejected their grubby little treaty it would be scrapped. All I have to say is FUCK THEM, their NWO tower of babel will come crashing down.
October 15th, 2008 at 10:34 am
If I were Irish I wouldn’t trust a second vote, not in a million years. I envy you guys, but I hope to follow you’s sOOn.
Atleast you guys got to vote, our traitoris Scot Gordon Brown (who lost his Scots nationality when decided Gazza scoring against Scotland for England was his favourite sporting moment of all time) went against a huge public opinion against the signing and done it anyway.
I am for a Torrie win, though as a working class Scot I hate them, but it can mean 2 things, 1. Brown’s decision to sign could go to vote 2. A Scottish independence referendum, no way will we let Torries run Scotland again.
Stay strong Ireland, it’s inspiration to your cousins across the sea!!!!!!!!

If you’re Irish come into the parlour,
There’s a welcome there for you;
If your name is Timothy or Pat,
So long as you come from Ireland,
There’s a welcome on the mat,
If You come from the Mountains of Mourne,
Or Killarney’s lakes so blue,
We’ll sing you a song and we’ll make a fuss,
Whoever you are you’re one of us,
If you’re Irish, this is the place for you!
…and FU EU PU
October 15th, 2008 at 11:26 am
The Tories are only saying that they’ll hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty *** if the Irish vote remains unresolved *** The Tories are just as pro-EU as the other main parties. They are controlled by the Establishment the same way that your Democrats and Republicans are controlled. The Tories give the impression that they are eurosceptic so that people think they have a choice, but they don’t. The Tories will NEVER allow us to have a vote on the Lisbon Treaty because they know the British people will shoot it down with a much bigger majority than the French, Dutch or Irish!
The United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) is the only moderate, libertarian party that is fighting for Britain’s full withdrawal from the EU soviet.
October 15th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Every person in every nation involved in the EU should march on their houses of government and demand they pull out of this corrupt totaliterian fascist state, unfortunatly no other nation was given a referendum on this because they know its not wanted, democracy on this planet today is dead, after 2 world wars and millions dead defending it what a waste of life and in the end millions will probably die trying to regain it if they ever can. People Must start organising to fight against this evil that runs through our governments if the globalist elite ever get a grip on this then we will all be facing the abbyss of hell and there will be no escape. How have we let this happen ?????.

WE IRISH LOVE A GOOD FIGHT, BRING IT ON MOTHER F@@KERS , FREEDOM TO THE PEOPLE

October 15th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
Tell the Irish to stick it to the EU, screw them-they are un-needed.
BTW-if Germany is so mad at US, makes you wonder why they still allow bases there 63 yrs after end of the WWII…hmm…

EU YOU CAN “POG MO TOIN”
(thats kiss my arse for you english speakers)
October 15th, 2008 at 12:38 pm
If Eire’s NO to Lisbon is the current lithmus test to the wave of resounding NO! s throughout Europe, then one thing remains clear. Us bedraggled faceless masses of the Old World remember our history. In the past 100 years we have had two World Wars leading to the decimation of our general population. we are still here GEORGE and your underhanded neocon bilderberg NWO agenda will NEVER wash with us. REMEMBER we endured centuries of occupatuion and famine so FUCK YOU if you think that we proud Irish or any of our Europian comPATRIOTS will ever acquiesce to your insipid plans. You’ve been warned! Oh and half of your own staff generals will see you elite up against a wall and shot for treason! All it will take will be a few good men, and they DO exist. All you have to do is push the boat out far enough and all the true U.S. patriots who will see the glaring disparity between what your admin is trying to push through and what your constitution represents, they will come out of the woodwork. Then you will reap what you have sown for the last 7 years.

The Irish would do well to remember the last king of a united Ireland, Brian Boru.
Ireland is a special place to God. His treasure’s are buried there.

“Disasterous consequences…” , “sanctions…”, geeeez!!! As far as the regular folks are concerned, the whole “EU” scheme has been way too long on promises and way too short on actually making life better (or any more affordable) for working people. We’re a tough lot, though – if it gets to the point that all the “elites” are able to do is issue threats, then we’ll just have to vote the treaty down by a 99% margin, and encourage them all to love us AND our stubborn ways.
October 15th, 2008 at 1:26 pm
Irish=Death to EU! Fuck country Unions. Protect your own shit. It’s kinda like sharing your wife. Ain’t going to happen without things getting fucked up over time! So stay the course! FUCK EU!
October 15th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
Disasterous consequences AYE I do not think so. If they threaten disasterous consequences it will be my pleasure to go over and help the Irish out in anyway possible including bombings of the parliment. Way to go Ireland. Your people are the best
October 15th, 2008 at 1:34 pm
….I LOVE how the Globalist Elite TALK 24/7 about “spreading Democratic ideals” YET WHEN A FREE PEOPLE REJECT THEIR GLOBALIST AGENDA THEY TRY TO …FORCE…IT ON THEM!
Look Kids, the IRISH PEOPLE REJECTED GLOBALIST BANKSTER SLAVERY….DEAL WITH IT!
The Euro is ALREADY starting to fall apart so who the hell would want to become part of it anyway?
Keep Ireland FREE!
October 15th, 2008 at 1:35 pm
off topic sort of,but just this;The people of switzerland said no four times to even join them fashists and we will again.DOESN`T mean we aren`t a part of europe,we are in the heart of europe and thats good.we are europeans.but we didn`t want to join another “hidden dictatorship”.the NO was only to the elite (so called).even we have celtic roots (helvetia)and therefore i say;go ireland,keep it individual,don`t drown and suffer with the masses.wonderful piece of land you got there b.t.w.:)

most brits have lost their faith in god and believe we are descended from monkeys instead of abraham… what a scam… they have taken it all hook line and sinker… they hate god, because they can not face following a religion of so called israelites… they want to follow there own people. if only they knew the truth.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:18 pm

The french revolution was instigated by the U.S. revolution. If the world is to evolve into a free society as our forefathers designed, we must lead the way.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
It would be worth it to be out of the UN. Let them do all their own things and grow their food, make their clothes and go back to the better days. I don’t know if Ireland has a Wal-Mart, but you don’t need it! I would do anything for us to be able not to worry about anyone but us and be free. At least the Irish gov LISTENS to their people! They don’t say, “The Fighting Irish” for nothing!
Stay tough my Irish ancestors.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:53 pm
Many Americans are waking up. The elite have been keeping us asleep and blinded to what is really going on here and in the world. I say solidarity to the Irish people and all the people of Europe. “We The People” of America will soon be letting our voices be heard.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:06 pm
Civilization actually originated in Ireland with the druids and moved from west to east as opposed to the official version of history which would have us believe civilization moved from east to west.
Maybe the Irish can save what’s left of civilization – get out of the EU, get out of the NWO and set up a completely free model society on the island of Ireland as a model for the rest of the world. I can still dream… can’t I? I know, I know… not for much longer if the NWO has it’s way!
October 15th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
Hopefully this will start a ground swell in other ‘eu’ coutries ,proud people of Europe that want their soverign coutries back – STAND UP for your birth right … F’ the NWO Zionist banksters … This Elmer’fud’ Brok needs to be hunted down with the rest of the NWO scum and forced to do thing against their will !! … I bet he is on psychotropic drugs – Zoloft perhaps , he’s got a funny look about him , no ? … like a soulless ghoul , he belongs in a mental asylum !! … Stand up and fight – IRELAND’s FREE !! … some Guiness and McCanns oatmeal is good for the soul … Bloody those EU ‘rat bastards’ good – we got your back !! Long live IRELAND the USA and FREEDOM !! …
October 15th, 2008 at 3:11 pm

Why does Switzerland be that stupid and want to join this EU clique?
October 15th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Switzerland has been rendered financially blackmailed and threatened with further legal extortion by Isreal and the EU for accepting supposed stolen jewmoney deposited by the german government pre-world war 2. The Swiss appeased Isreal and every super-victim with billions of swiss francs, however they are forced on the EUs political strings and further devastating law suites if they do not comply.
October 15th, 2008 at 5:22 pm
The dutch labour party actually promised a referendum before the election. Now we know from leaked reports that they dropped this when they were forming a cabinet. If the Dutch got another referendum, there is no chance in hell that it will pass. Most people aren’t as “aware” as some of us of the system, but nevertheless the vast majority is against what the EU stands for.
October 15th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
as an irish man who voted against the lisbon treaty i just gotta say that i am sicked and disgusted by the spineless parasites who ” govern” us. we said no, and now they skulk around lying to us and spreading false infomation. according to the papers here in the months after the referendum. it seems like the voters were “confused ” and didnt understand what they were voting on. and that as we say here , is a load of bollocks. everyone in the country knew damn well what the vote was all about and our rejection was largly thanks to concernded citizens who took things into their own hands to expose the scum in charge to the light of day.
the only reason we were allowed a vote when most countries didnt is because of a loophole in our constitution that made us have one, but as i type there is new legistration being brought in to correct this and make sure we dont interfere with the grand sceme of things with any of that troublesome “freewill”.
and of course now comes a resession. conveinient. if we do vote again it will pass for sure, simply because people are scared and frightend. they think if we do what the eu want we can avoid a crash. this may just be me personally , but after fighting the british for hundreds of years for our freedom, id sooner die than give it up again.
October 15th, 2008 at 6:34 pm
the Irish have outlasted many foes, and hopefully will continue to do so forever. We have many irish here in philadelphia-USA and we back you 100%. One of your irish brothers has some great videos on youtube his channel is FKNEWZ( just put in it the search) funny and brilliant. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v.....12;— Peace

God Bless Ireland! Stand Tough! to hell with the Libson treaty, let there weak threats fall on deat ears. Keep your people free. And may God Destroy the Bankers and all involved with the NWO!

October 15th, 2008 at 6:58 pm
Watch documentary ‘End Of Nations’ on http://www.wiseupjournal.com made by ‘we are change,Ireland’ to gain full insight.PS congratulations to those dozens of Irish that went to Brussells today to reclaim their constitution from the Bilderbergers and demand that the technocratic elite RESPECT THE PEOPLES VOTE.Hitler kept bringing in new versions of effectively the same referendum to empower the Reichstag until eventually with enough PR and huge ad campaigns and fear mongering people voted for it.That is why Patricia Mckenna(the only independent vote no campaigner in the Irish government!!) and supporters went to Brussells today,to remind NWO that NO means NO.Of course main stream media barely acknowledged their presence.
October 15th, 2008 at 8:54 pm
My idea of a well balanced Irishman.. He has TWo chips on his shoulders…
Damn the good fight and hang in there..
They are saying.. we want you to vote..But vote like WE WANT you too…
There will come a time.. I support the Brits..But there is a time when common sense prevails..
The Iruish have held their own and will continue to do so.. and hopefully the Stottish will make a proper choice if the time is right..
we don’t all necessecarily have to get along.. we just have to get past this.. then we can split other hairs..
October 15th, 2008 at 8:55 pm
This pisses me off… to no end.
October 15th, 2008 at 9:43 pm
Hello, iam from Germany, it piss me realy off , we have no choice anymore in Europe the Goverments doing whatever they want to do. They dont care about that what we want.
that Elmar Brok is somone from the CDU . 10-20 years ago the cdu wasnt that much corrupt like they are today.
they lieing and lieing. they dont care for the poor people in our country , they saying hey we have no money. but now we have the “Bank Crisis” and now they have 400 Billon Euro to help the banks.
and now they want change our country condition so that they can use the German army inside of our country when they are problems. usualy its not allowed to use the German Amry inside the country.
I hope you understand what i say , my english is not too good.
Everything what alex jones and aaron russo are saying is the truth , you can see the change what happens not only in the states even in Europe you can see the change.
October 15th, 2008 at 9:47 pm
I salute the country of Ireland. They are making a great example for the rest of the world, when it comes to standing up against the rise of Super-States and tyranny.
God bless
October 15th, 2008 at 9:53 pm
GermanPatriot –
Your english is better than most people who claim to speak English in the Us…..
And you are 100% correct…
All GVTs are going with the same plan..and when you don’t vote the way they want..they insist you vote again..and again and again…until they get the vote THEY want..not what the PEOPLE want..
I think it is the same in every country.. Maybe Asia is preently more politically civilized than the Western world…
October 15th, 2008 at 9:56 pm

**** Everyone go to youtube and check out John Todd Illuminate – part 3 … this gives insights into who is doing all the manipulation to the world economies and why … very fascinating and pretty scarry also … you won’t be disapointed … GOD Bless Ireland and all the free people of the world … Open your eyes , get educated and organized for the fight of our lives and the future of humanity … Aces and 8’s
October 16th, 2008 at 2:09 am
What we are seeing is Ireland’s people attempting to throw off its “would be” yoke of bondage and tyrranny in spite of its own bogus government’s strongarm political tactics to keep it from doing so. The Irish people can, at last, have a free and flourishing society (if they remain firm and resolute in this endeavor). When most people speak of the luck of the Irish it’s usually in sarcasm. This unquestionably has to do with their historical enslavement to the anglo-elite of the evil British Empire. It appears to me they are about to have a change of luck (if you wish to call it luck). Personally I don’t believe luck has anything to do with it. For the most part we make our own luck. It has to do with how we respond to adversity. It has to do with the inner strength of the human spirit (to refuse to capitulate, to perservere and overcome). The Irish people are a long suffering, strong willed, noble people. I believe they will defeat the EU/NWO and will set the example needed for all “freedom seeking” nations to follow suit. The New World Order must be defeated and wiped off the face of the earth. Death to the New World Order! Long live the new free nation of Ireland!
October 16th, 2008 at 5:13 am
Well said GermanPatriot(54) and jow(55). There has been for over 30 thousand years one war, one war against humanity by the governing forces who pose as their leaders (leading them to hell). Admiration for Ireland, let it be that other nations stand up likewise.
October 16th, 2008 at 8:03 am
#54 GermanPatriot–Ihre English ist “sehr gut” und ihre Idea ist eben BESSER.
It’s time for all Patriots to support the Irish in their fight against tyranny. They have been under the thumb of the British for 100s of years and they smell the crown and empire involvement in this process. I the EU is son damn good then why have the Brits opted out of the Euro and stuck with their Pound Sterling. God bless the Irish and we need more Michael Collins…
October 16th, 2008 at 11:28 am
I’ve no idea why Ireland became ensnared in the EU in the first place, other than it’s policicians sold the people down the river, like the rest of Europe’s politicians sold theirs and our own politicians sold us. You go, Ireland!

In Dublin town in nineteen sixteen a flame of freedom did arise.
A group of men with determination caught an empire by surprise
Through the streets our men were marching
They rallied with their hopes and fears
And the Enda boys came searching for their leader Padraig Pearse.
Chorus:
The poet and the Irish rebel a Gaelic scholar and a visionary
We gave to him no fitting tribute
When Ireland’s at peace only that can be
When Ireland a nation, united and free.
On Easter morn he faced the nation from the steps of the G.P.O.
And read aloud the proclamation, the seed of nationhood to sow.
But soon the word had spread to London of an insurrection there at hand
And the deeds of Padraic Pearse was set about to free his land.
Chorus …
For five long days the battle rages, for five long nights the battle wore
We will watch as Dublin City blazes and see our men fall through the floor
No Ireland’s proud of her effort for her cause we fought with pride
But to save more life and to save our city, we make our peace with McFainis cried.
Chorus …
Kilmainham Jail in 1916, they brought young Pearse
to his death cell and they tried him as a traitor to shoot this man who dared to rebel
He only tried to free his country of the shackles of 800 years.
When dawn did break on that May morning they shot our Leader Padraic Pearse.
Chorus

Left a message at #24. The final analysis: The solidarity shown by EVERY blogger is duly noted by all Irish viewers. Lets all hope that the day will come when a few good men (and a lot of them will have to be high ranking members of the U.S. military apparachik, staff generals, CinCs, etc) blaze the trail for the one voice of humanity, namely us in the 1st World societies to speak out for our freedom and our constitutions and for the billions of starving oppressed people whose voices will never be heard. With the truth being known and the gauntlet thrown at our feet, only then will elitist core doctrine achitects suddenely realise their fatal miscalculation. And that is that throughout history, the oppressed have always defeated the oppressor and we will find a way! Because we have to, and thats what makes us collectively so dangerous. The only alternative to this draconian action being, as the old saying goes, “The only thing necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.”

First the French and now the Germans all these threats tut tut.. its seriously sad and pathetic and will only anger people more we are bang wide to what this lot are up to. The Lisbon treaty is finished in Eiré if we have to vote again it would be funny if it wasnt so serious to see the looks on the politicians faces as the treaty is not just defeated but obliterated which is what will happen if its put to the people again theres no doubt about that. Were all playing the waiting game now to see who makes the next move maybe Germany just did time will reveal all.

So then is Irish Teaoseach and even Sinn Fein all propt up paid-off chicken-shit puppets, as our congress here in Washington? Is the first rejection of L.Treaty just a show of fake bravado just to see government traitors hand over Ireland’s constitution in exchange for bribes and token Tax Relief? Lastly is Jerry Adams the real deal and can Ireland unite once more.

@all thanks and it is good to know that you understand my english
Its realy sucks to see in what a bad way everything is changing. the democracy is dieing more and more , but the most terrible thing on that is that the most people dont take any notice of it ,because the medias not telling the truth. i noticed now many many times that the medias (mostly the news) not telling the truth and using any “fake news ” to fool around the poeple
@Casual Observer Says:
“All GVTs are going with the same plan..and when you don’t vote the way they want..they insist you vote again..and again and again…until they get the vote THEY want..not what the PEOPLE want..”
Casual Ovserver you are absolutely right with that.
to our irish friends , 90 percent of the rest of people in Europe were happy about the way you vote. We are proud of you.

I am English and i am so pleased to see the Irish resistance to this elite power grab. I’ve been to Ireland twice and they are great people. I’d love to see another referendum fail. What do these arrogant elites think the people are, stupid??? I have travelled to nearly 50 countries around the globe and met great people everywhere. Its almost always the governments that cause the problems, being manipulated of course by the bankers and Illuminate bloodlines.
The cloak has been lifted and the emperor has no clothes. The game is over already. Too many people know and thats the thing the elites are scared stupid about. We see their game of monopoly and its about to end. We are taking the power back.
God Bless the Irish, they show their metal. they show their character and they will not be silenced

Hang in there Erin, and fight! This “Ham Shank” is smiling at all the threats you all are recieving from the EU I dont think the rest of Europe understand the Irish resolve. Who is this Elmar Brock? Oh I see he is a “influential politician” and he speaks threats and calls it politics?
Well lets break down the word politics; poly or poli. Well if I remember my classical languages thats like Greek meaning many and tics, well if you been in the woods tromping about and you find a strange blood sucking insect on you that would be a “tic.” Now add that all together and you have many blood sucking vermin, Politics!!!
Good luck to my kinfolk in Ireland!

Ireland will not give in!

The irish are today more than 60% likely to vote yes to the treaty, as if they (or should I say WE, I being Irish) are now begining to realise that the Keltic Tiger is now long gone. It is as if we are now begining to consider the limitations of the economical policies which created this Celtic Cat and are now being presented with the Dogs of War. Long gone the endless price rise for housing. My family has in the last six months sold three houses, all three were sold within the family!
Any other way, it would have been impossible.
Welcome bacl the old school, for we are falling back into it quicker and this time for far longer than we could have ever hoped for.
O come away
O weeping child
To the water and the wild
For the world is far more of weeping
Than you can understand

The EU will eventually get what they want, even if this means that Ireland and perhaps Great Britain are kicked out of the EU to achieve their “destiny”.

God bless the fighting Irish!!!
Never give up hope, never surrender!
Time to become completely sovereign.

GOD BLESS THE IRISH! Sorry for shouting….the Irish understand that Freedom is more important than the so called security and privilege that the EU promises. Many of the founders of our country (USA) were of Irish descent and I thank them for their contributions to our Liberty. Now it is the American People’s turn to return the favor to the Irish. We’re with you. Many of us cheered the rejection of the EU! May the good Lord be with you always.
If the US wasn’t moving toward a fascist state I would invite the Irish to become the 51st State of the Union, but those days are long passed. We have a lot of work to do right here at home to combat the feudalist system being imposed on “We The People.”
My prayer is this: “Lord though our shores may be invaded and the nation overrun by a horde of world armies may we say NO to the New World Order and YES to Liberty. And may the people unit and drive them into the sea….but if it be Your Will that we perish for our sins or righteousness than so be it….Amen” Good day to the irish!

Will the US be as willing to support the Irish in their preservation of “freedom” as they were the Iraqi people?
This should get interesting if the issue is presented in a fashion for the world to see for themselves and decide on what is actually going on.

If it wasn’t for whiskey the Irish would rule the world. Lets get Rid a whiskey boys an girls.

Dear Casual Observer,
You know full well that the Irish can fight their own fights. In addition, it may be obvious to you that the Americans are fed up with policing the world, but when it comes to helping the Irish it will come from the man on the street not from our federal government. Our federal government is about to get spanked big time.
As I said earlier, the Irish can handle their own fights. I seem to remember that British troops couldn’t deal with the IRA and the Irish were right in Brits back yard….

Clayton Jones #82 -
My comment was in jest. I too recall the fits given to the Brits by a long battle with the IRA.. and I do not think the Briits or anyone else is prepared for such another battle. The Irish have proven they can get together to mainatin soveriegnty..and I hope when the time come the US can do the same. Our blood and patriotism in the US has been thinned by many years of GVT lies and propaganda.. In the US it is okay to be Patriotic..”as long as it is the GVT’s idea of what patriotism should be”.. it would seem..
I pray that the Irsh make a stand..and were I there..I would stand with them..
They have cast their vote..and the Irish people have spoken. If they are to be FORCED to vote “yes” against their will.. WHy even solicit a vote at all..
The EU can handle the situation just like the US congress did the bailout vote on Oct3, 2008..
I recall that one theory of a rapist committing a rape was when the girl said “no” she actually was being interpreted to be saying “yes”…. That must be how the US congress operates…

Just LOVING this thread of discussion….this is WONDERFUL. Good representation by so many countries (can we find more?), all recognizing the agenda for what it is. Talking as Mankind, NOT nationalistic rhetorical, brainwashed idiots. Recognizing too, the latest attack, now a global one (the engineered “Global Financial Crisis”)…..I think we all recognize that we must be vigilant, we need to keep talking (while we can)….need to spread the word even further, understand they have seemingly moved up their timetable (U.S. threatened w/ martial law if Congress did not pass the “bailout bill”; Switzerland and Ireland threatened by EU, etc._). Be on the look out for alternative sources of information, alternative internet access and share NOW any thoughts in this regard please — we may need a back-up, they will be looking to shut down this sharing of information, this fact that we are all humans and talking amongst ourselves will not please the warmongers trying to drive a wedge between us when we have no gripe with eachother, when we just want to lead a reasonable life. Remember too to continue to research and provide the names of people/organizations still fighting the good fight: Public Citizen, Ron Paul, Alex Jones, Jim Marrs, Naomi Wolf, Nigel Farage, Restore the Republic, We the People Foundation, Democracy Now, just to name a few (sorry can’t provide Irish, Swiss, German, Netherlands, Brussels etc. names per se…..please provide so we can all track the good people from all countries).

One more thing, I am a 7th gen American however I am very distressed and oppressed within my country…. I love to travel, I love all your countries, have visited all your countries…lovely places and people ALL, would like to come again (& again), may not be permitted if this agenda is permitted to succeed.
