I'm a firm admirer of Peter Taylor's work! Thanks for the upload!

[@williammohan9784]

Peter Taylors documentaries on the Troubles are unequaled. No bias, no agenda, just good hard open reporting.

[@ATLmodK]

I have loved all of his documentaries. Now to start tracking down his books. He was the best. Sympathetic with all, never one sided.

[@user-br3bw7wr2l]

Read Provos, Loyalists and Brits. Absolutely essential reading for a non biased view of the conflict.

[@ATLmodK]

@@user-br3bw7wr2l This morning I found the Chiffon Project by Peter Taylor on Audio to listen to while walking my dog. Great. It was the one and only Peter Taylor book on Audible, but I live in the States and It wasn’t allowed in my country.😡

[@user-br3bw7wr2l]

@@ATLmodK I’ve bought that and still need to read it !

[@ATLmodK]

@@user-br3bw7wr2l I’m sure I can find it on Goodreads or Thriftbooks, but I really wanted Audible so I could listen while doing something else. Guess I’m out of luck on that!

[@user-br3bw7wr2l]

@@ATLmodK Tbh the books were released in 1997 so it’s doubtful they’ve been narrated. There is of course the programs of the same name which are equally interesting.

One of the greatest journalists ever. What an amazing, dedicated man.

[@Kazzb1967]

Thanks again for showing these videos

[@Amped4Life]

I appreciate the work of uploading amazing works of journalism and documenting history. Thank you, ATL, for making this Dutch American more informed and aware of the history, ongoing impact, cultures, viewpoints and experiences of all citizens of Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland (loyalists and republicans both).

[@maltesetony9030]

All Taylor's documentaries & books on NI are excellent.

[@DaveSCameron]

A classic, tbf most of Peters work was almost boringly professional but I think that’s what made him so sincere. peace ☘️📚

[@Avaloctus]

As always, another really interesting documentary. So far I read a few books written by Peter Taylor. His documentaries are great as well. Thanks for sharing. Keep it up. ☮✌

The woman's son later died in hospital a month later. 3 sons murdered for being Catholic.

[@Freddygotfingered84]

Terrible. As a Unionist I think its horrendous that anyone thought they were above the law to take life or limb.

[@liamg1706]

@Freddygotfingered84 agreed but the problem was the laws only applied to some and the state was involved in alot of these murders to some extent, so in a way some groups were above the law and operated with impunity.

[@Freddygotfingered84]

@liamg1706 I know mate true, was horrendous conflict. Wouldn't call it a war like as no artillery/ships/fighter jets used but yea it was brutal. Just glad the children now a days never lived through it..

[@Freddygotfingered84]

I like this guy iv watched/followed him for years doesn't takes sides a very, very good reporter.

[@liamg1706]

@Freddygotfingered84 yes he seems good non-biased just asks questions he knows people watching would be asking and accepts different points of view. Refreshing.

[@billybhoy32]

Loyalist songs are like something you'd hear at a cheap seaside holiday beach.

Hi, I’m the comment mgr for ATL. This should be up tomorrow and for a few days after at least biut If you cannot find it, ATL has a channel on Patreon and on Rumble.

[@liamg1706]

"Fighting back" after causing the whole thing. Loyalists are delusional.

[@koeman1873]

Loyalists achieved their aims, unlike so called Republicans, embarrassing.

[@liamg1706]

@koeman1873 Loyalists started the conflict their only aim was hatred, discrimination ,murder and mahem. At the start of the conflict all republicans wanted was civil rights and defence in their areas against Loyalist murder mobs but in the end IRA fought the British to stale mate , a few hundred men against British army, RUC, Loyalist death squads , SAS ,mi5 .. and all in collusion together. And they were undefeated even if they didn't achieve every goal. The British themselves admitted the IRA could not be defeated so what's there to be embarrassed about. Inflicted nearly 4 times as much enemy casualties than they lost.

[@koeman1873]

@@liamg1706 Grow up, the so called ira were defeated, their goal of a united ireland and the removal of the British from ireland failed, their politicans now help rule part of the UK, what a victory. True republicans are turning in their graves the way things ended up.

[@liamg1706]

@koeman1873 the IRA took on of most formidable armys in the world and then some.. and couldnt be defeated.. what did loyalists do? target and murder random unarmed civilians. 90 % of their victims were innocent civilians. Maybe you should re-evaluate who should be embarrassed.

[@liamg1706]

@koeman1873 how were they defeated? Not achieving all their aims isn't defeat you idiot. They fought to British into talks. How does it feel to be ruled by them now?

[@tonemc6047]

Why do loyalists always call it Ulster like it’s a separate area when Ulster is nine counties?

[@user-bk3gn7wl1e]

As a Donegal man I find that very offensive. I wrote a letter to the orange order but they never got back to me 😢

3:10 that's it in a nut shell that man says they are fighting for what they have owned for hundreds of years 😂😂😂 you serious yous have owned nothing the British took it simple as that

[@ATLmodK]

Isn’t this comment made by the descendant of a settler who was given “all he owns” by the British and most likely self identifies as British? If he had been Irish, the British would have taken away his land 3-400 years ago and given it to aa settler.

Ulster is Irish mate. Britain is across the water..

[@jackpirie7382]

Ulster is a Province of Ireland and has 9 counties. Northern Ireland has 6 counties the other 3 are Monaghan, Donegal and Cavan are in the ROI. Therefore Ulster is NOT British

[@gerrybyrne5636]

Ireland is Ireland ,Ulster is one of its 4 provinces. Britain are the uninvited raider/ occupier of Ireland.
