Ireland5 months ago - In-depth reporting at its best
I’m old enough to remember the “troubles” being in the news here in the US. This is the best reporting I’ve heard on the subject. Another reminder, as if we needed one these days, of peoples’ capability for inhumanity.

Podcast Addict56 months agoStuplantUKNI- Agenda Driven Diatribe

Maybe I'm misremembering, but didn't the IRA also do some bad things? You wouldn't know, if you listened to this pro-Republican drivel.
