Great content indeed, everyone suffered and many still are.

[@ATLmodK]

This was such a powerful documentary! Thank you again, ATL!💚🇮🇪💚

[@farmstyle92macd55]

The story about the Ald lad holding onto the cows tail was my favourite

[@rickster101]

Thanks Atl another fantastic informative video sad stories on both sides brought a tear to my eyes Ireland has come a long way since the peace process but still has a way to go god bless all that has been affected by the troubles and wish all strength going forward.

Once again TL, thank you for posting these : I have a 16 year old kid, he grew up in USA, I grew up on the border - he is watching these with his mouth hanging open…

The border that divides ireland into two must come down ireland must be reunited as one country the Berlin Wall came down and the two sides live together in peace if Germany can do it Ireland can do it....,

Had a laugh at the man saying they called protestant proxy goats , when I was a kid in Glasgow we called the protestant kids Prody dogs. And we were Catholic cats who eat the rats. Prody dogs eat the frogs 😂😂

[@dantes2564]

The solution? No border, united ireland. Return ireland to tve irish

[@posniknelb6114]

If it was that simple, it would've happened already. Too many protestants wouldn't except that I'm afraid.

[@HurlerontheDitch]

[@dpm2515]

​@niallward8885 what the hell are you talking about? Either way they would be the minority. If integrated into Ireland and then the Northern Ireland Protestants would be a minority and currently the interests of Northern Ireland Protestants have a minority faction within the British House of Commons... it was a lot more complicated 100 years ag...

[@HurlerontheDitch]

@@dpm2515 I agree

[@posniknelb6114]

I know they're not, but they would be if the north became part of the republic. It's something loyalists would never ever agree to.

They really need to learn how many counties there are in Ulster .

[@johnbrennan7764]

They do, so many videos here say the border divides Ulster from the rest of Ireland. In reality it divides Ulster from Ulster except for short enough stretches of Leitrim and Louth.

[@jackietreehorn5561]

Leitrim isn't in Ulster lol

[@johnbrennan7764]

@@jackietreehorn5561 of course its not, neither is Louth but they are the only border counties that are not in Ulster. Hence the vast majority of the border divides Ulster from the rest of Ulster.

I remember in Glasgow getting asked what school I went to. If it was catholic sounding, ye just didn't get the job. Next please was usually the answer.

[@arronblack67]

I still get that in Glasgow to this day! Always have “i kick with my left” as an answer 😉

[@thegolem797]

My wife fancied working in a bank when she left school. She had all the relevant exam grades, and mentioned to her dad about the application she was making. He told her that, as a Catholic, she wouldn’t get the job. She ignored him and went ahead - never had a chance.

The Only Border I can see is The Irish Sea, the line dividing the North East Six Counties is a British Partition.

[@paulduffy4585]

I read that british intelligence were behind that whole idea. Provos had never done proxy bombing before. I even remember at the time it was super weird. For hours after it went off there was no choppers up, no sirens, nothing.

[@paulduffy4585]

There was never any convictions. And in the South Down proxy bomb the hostage was told not to open the door, the detonator was rigged to the door light. The Omagh proxy never went off at all.

[@paulduffy4585]

The gardai arrested Willie Mc Guinness and he ended up winning damages against the Irish government for unconstitutional detention.

[@lucjansobol2024]

Awesome archive films and interesting interviews from witnesses, very entertaining. Divided society was not an Irish uniqueness but the stories U reminded in this YT piece are mesmerizing due to it's intensity, robust evidence and bond to today's reality. ❤ From Poland for all the people living on the island

Ireland should be one; there is enough regional and local politics to look after people’s sectarian interests without dividing populations. Both sides interests are basically the same they are being used by big politics for power reasons. Take away that power and there will be compromise.

Yet another Sinn Fein/IRA propaganda film

[@koeman1873]

Look on any map or Atlas and you will see that there is still a border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland and long may it continue, the Loyal British people of Ulster have fought bravely and withstood everything that was thrown at them and claimed victory as Northern Ireland remains part of the United Kingdom. QS.

@utku0000 Never.

Using extreme and false terminology like "Ulster" and "British province" shows how dated this propaganda is. They weren't even trying back then. I'm guessing it was intended for an ignorant English audience who would have known no better.

@@Vvv-1690 Because Ulster has nine counties and can't be used as a synonym for northern Ireland. Secondly, northern Ireland isn't a province. Call it a region or even a country, but it's not a province.
