[BUCHANAN: Dublin Time Machine @RobLooseCannon]

The legendary origin of the phrase "Chancing your arm" came from Dublin in 1492. The Butlers of Ormonde and the FitzGeralds of Kildare were fighting a bloody violent feud. The Butlers retreated to the sanctuary of St. Patrick's Cathedral, with the FitzGeralds in hot pursuit.

A deadly standoff took place, the Fitzgeralds refusing to leave till the Butlers surrendered. However, the Butlers feared they'd be massacred by their sworn enemies if they left the sanctuary.

To break the stalemate, Gearóid Mór FitzGerald came up with a genius idea. To show his sincerity to let the Butlers surrender peacefully, he cut a hole in the Chapterhouse door and put his empty sword arm through, as a gesture of peace.

The Butlers recognised the honour of the act of Fitzgerald "chancing his arm". Their leader shook Fitzgerald's hand. Both families left the cathedral in peace, and in one piece! The "Door of Reconciliation" is still on display in St Pat's Cathedral this day. Maybe there's someone in your life you should chance your arm with?

To paraphrase slightly the Irish hunger-striker Terence MacSwiney:

It is not those who can inflict the most but those who can endure the most who will prevail.

44 years ago at 3.00pm on 3rd October the 1981 Hunger Strike ended.
Ten men died in one of the most defining periods of Irish history.
Their cause was the freedom and unity of Ireland, a cause we continue to pursue today.
"They tried to bury us, they didn't know we were seeds."

Kitty O'Brien has done more & sacrificed more to support journalists in Gaza in one day than the majority of Western reporters put together have done over the last 22 months.

The one thing I dislike about modern super hero movies is that the fights never come close to your average power rangers episode
