No the cenotaphs are dedicated to an army that bravely fought in the world wars, helped save countless lives around the world including here in N.I. They are not dedicated to an army who's sole purpose was to occupy your country or anything like it.
I will never respect any monument dedicated to terrorists, not now not ever.
Even if I did respect your monuments it wouldn't be under a precondition that you respect cenataphs etc. There is a major difference between terrorist monuments and cenotaphs, they are not comparable.
If you want to commemorate those who's sole aim was to attack my community with ruthless actions then that is up to you but don't expect me to show the remotest bit of respect to those type of monuments.

Your not comparing like for Setanta in any way shape or form. Compare it with a UVF/UDA memorial and then we are on the same page.

well we can all play that game and say the Cenotaphs are dedicated to an army that illegaly subjegated, terrorised and occupied my country. Doesn't get us very far now does it? How about I respect your Cenotaph and you respect our Monuments Your country? bit of a arrogent statement there, but one that sums up the sinn fein mindset perfectly. Blik has already posed the question but did not recieve an answer, how can the men that the vast majorty of the cenotaphs or dedicated to occupy thier own country? And since we are on the subject of citzns of this island and since you in sinn fein regard unionist as Irish men (all be it confused) then iyou could say that most IRA monuments are dedicated to people who spent thier time blowing up 'irish' citys up and murdering 'irish' people, and you think thats worth remembering?

Setanta as you have been clearly told you are not comparing like for like. The very monuments that you want respected are monuments of people/organisation whos sole purpose was to attack everything British including its citizens in outrageous sectarian attacks.
It is republicans who should show respect and get rid of these insensitive and provocative monuments and commemorations. The monuments that you honour are honouring those who shot unarmed civillians, planted bombs to kill as many civillians in mainly Unionist towns and areas killing and maiming thousands. That was there purpose, that was there intention and we have all the facts to prove it.
The cenotaphs are a completely different thing, and even me trying to show you the difference is pointless because IMO you are brainwashed in a rom antic fantasy of what the ira done instead of what they really done. Yet it is you who calls for respect. Absolute hypocricy.

Why difflect from what I said, the facts are there to what the ira did, the facts are there to what some republicans supported. yet you have a problem with the truth being pointed out because what you claim to have happened flies in the face of years and years of proof, thousands of thousands of witness's and media reports.
You want to talk about respect yet you support monuments of those people who took part in this ongoing sectarian bloodbaths.

Well i can't debate any longer in this thread with you Setanta as you have a different view altogether on whats comparable. UVF/IRA fine to compare as far as i'm concerned. IRA/UVF and those who died in World Wars isn't even close. So i have nothing further to add to this, we are so far apart that we would only waste each others time.

wilderness, I mean Ireland. All 32 Counties throughout history. And what? those monuments are still dedicated to people who murdered people who according to you own party were for the main part 'Irish' and blew up citys that again were accodring to your party in the main part 'Irish' citys

I agree with you here Harry, it is absolutely pointless. Setanta IMO without being rude as I am being perfectly serious etc, I think you are too brainwashed to see anything different so it is a complete waste of time.
You are on a different planet so I think I should also leave this thread and stick to threads where we are on the same level instead of some being in the real world and some on cloud 9.

wilderness a few of us have already dropped off this thread as you will have seen. In all honesty how do you try to get through to anyone that commemorates the people who attacked our community for the last 3 decades nevermind commemorating dissidents then from 50 years ago then complaining about dissidents now.
I myself don't give up but even I see by the outrageous , ridiculous and idiotic posts that there is no point. I was talking to a Falklands war veteran earlier, his father was killed world war II and when I told him some of the replies he said is it any wander you Unionists want fuck all to do with sinn fein/ira if that is there attitude.

Just shows how twisted you are setanta, not once did anyone say the nationalist community were not targeted, difference here is most of us openly admit and condemn the nationalist community being targeted apart from of course the ira and their ilk. Yet you try to difflect and spin off the subject to twist things round to try and back your foolish and non existant arguement.
How can anyone honestly get through to such a twisted mindset???
