Welcome To Irish Republicanism

This community supports the theories and ideals of Irish Republicanism and the writings of such revolutionaries as James Connolly, Padraig Pearse and Bobby Sands. We do not support the killing of innocent civilians. The group was founded by ~mindofarevolutionary

Irish Republican Principles are very basic and have never and will never change.

The refusal to recognize a foreign (British Government) occupying government.
The refusal to view Irish Political Prisoners as criminals.
The refusal to recognize partition as legal.
The disbanding of the RUC/PSNI, not just a change in name.
The total withdraw of all occupying military forces.
The whole of Ireland united as one nation.

There has always been a tradition of armed resistance to the British military and political occupation of Ireland. This tradition generally only found effective expression when after a period of non-armed agitation, large sections of the Irish people, faced with the British government's denial of the legitimate demand for Irish independence, exercised the right to use armed struggle.

This was the case with the organisation from which modern Irish republicans trace their origins - the United Irishmen of the 1790s. Inspired by the example of the American War of Independence and by the democratic ideals of the French Revolution, the United Irishmen sought to unite the people of Ireland in a common effort to achieve equality and freedom. Choosing initially non-violent means to win their aims, the United Irishmen quickly met with a repressive response from the British government. It was only then that they exercised their right as Irish people to defend their liberty by the use of arms. It was a pattern that was to be repeated several times in the next century and a half.

I is for internment of the innocent and free
R is for resistance to the laws of tyranny
E is for the English who have torn our land apart
L is for the love of freedom in every Irish heart
A is for the answer we`re all searching for
N is for one nation and an end to this long war
D is for the dream of millions longing to be free.
That`s how I spell Ireland, that's what Ireland means to me

"The great only appear great because we are on our knees, Let Us Rise!"
