Bedell, William https://www.dib.ie/biography/bedell-william-a0537
William Bedell sounds as if he was an attractive character, his life a ray of light in what is all too often the gloom of the early modern history of the English in Ireland.
Aughnanure Tower (v2.0) - 2014;
Inside one of the towers (defensive tower) of Aughnanure (if you've seen my post yesterday, it was the one on far right). I think I've used Mercator style here for this vertical one. The whole in the ceiling is actually for archers on the above chamber (unreachable when I went there) to shoot at intruders. I can't quite recall the whole plan of the castle or fort, but all that remains now is just a low wall and 2 towers, which makes it hard to imagine how effective this was!

A memory of Dingle Ireland from the archives. Only had a few hours there but what a beautiful day it was. 
Absolutely awesome statement. This was made during the #Fleadh which is a week-long festival showcasing #Irish traditional music, song, and dance, with a strong emphasis on competition and cultural preservation.
Whenever some asshole likes to call Irish people #Paddystinian, we hit them with 800 years of experience dealing with murdering genocidal psychopaths and they never get back up.

NEW: #Irish Times reports an ageing Russian tanker, Blue, carrying sanctioned crude from near St Petersburg, has entered Irish waters under a false Benin flag, without insurance or safety papers. The 22-year-old vessel, part of #Russia’s shadow fleet switched off its tracking before entry. Weeks ago, reports warned of a surge in such tankers bypassing the English Channel via Ireland’s west coast to evade UK monitoring.

And there you have it...
The final solution...
We #Irish wrote the book on how to deal with an occupying force and nobody more then us know what the outcome will be. This will be a massacre beyond comparison and unlike the #British, the Israeli military regime will no hold back.
Now, more than ever, an international peacekeeping force is needed in #Gaza.
