This took my breath away: We didn't name the slaughtered children because Israel would go after their remaining family.
We can't even name the victims of the deplorable genocidaries.

As Morning Ireland discusses the role of women during the revolutionary period, a reminder of Margaret Ward's brilliant work on rebel women in Co Antrim.

What a difference not even a day makes!
Fine Gael's United Ireland was 'nonsense' last night in the printed edition. Then, the editor - or someone - decided to change the online presentation!

[Danny Morrison @molloy1916]

From a book published in 1969.
From a P.O.W. who witnessed Dresden.
From a US citizen born and raised in Indianapolis.
From someone who witnessed war and suffering.

And to all those who pit Zionism and self-aggrandisement - and a football match - before conscience.

[Eoin Ó Broin @EOBroin]

And Flowers Grew Up Through The Concrete by Laurence McKeown is an incredible memoir

It takes the reader from the aftermath of the 1981 hunger strike to the closure of the H Blocks in 2000

Laurence is honest, thoughtful & gives plenty of space to the voices of others @BooksBtp
