Racist war of the loyalist street gangs (http://www.guardian.co.uk/race/story/0,11374,1120113,00.html)


Not far from the red, white and blue paving stones, the Ku Klux Klan graffiti and the "Chinks out" notices scratched outside south Belfast Chinese takeaways, Hua Long Lin was at home watching television when a man burst in and smashed a brick into his face. His wife, also in the room, was eight months pregnant. The couple had moved into the terrace two weeks before.

"The attacks are increasing. I can feel the atmosphere on the street. I have to be prepared to be called names at least once a day. I have a beard so I'm called Bin Laden or Saddam Hussein, or I'm told 'Paki go home'."

The benefits of religion and nationalism, supported by capitalism. Enjoy. :angry:

Actually, The main nationalist newspaper in my area attacks racists with a passion. Most of the papers here actually do, Including tabloids.
Those loyalist bastards always were Nazi fuckheads, They invite C-18 and other groups over during their "Marching season".
Theres going to be an anti-fascist march outside city hall on the 27th of this month.

This is the result of bad immigration laws. Racism is the sad result of worker division :(

excess of immigrants=result of bad immigration laws
racism= worker division created by capitalists (who control the law)

Is that what you meant, heh?

I didn&#39;t mean it to sound like that.
But groups such as the UFF, UDA and Vanguard all have links with far-right organizations

Fair enough, point taken. There are quite strong links with far-right organisations and the loyalist paramilitaries. One UVF member is in court at the moment for racist assault. There was also a case where either C18 or the NF invited the UDA to come on a march with them last year.

Even the great Reverand Ian Paisley is fucking rascist scum. I remember checking out his website, full of rightwing lies. I sent some messages to him through the site, no replies :D

I hope Ireland is united and becomes a Communist country&#33;&#33; Ireland is doing really well under the Eroupean Union but it needs to change because there is to much Inflation&#33;&#33; IRELAND NEEDS TO BE UNITED&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; UNIFICATION LONG LIVE IRELAND AND THE CUBAN REVOLUTION&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; :)

A united Ireland on what basis though? If there was to be a United Ireland, what would really change? Instead of cuts being brought in by Westminister (or Stormfront), they&#39;d be brought in by Dublin. Instead of protesters being attacked by the British Army, they&#39;d be attacked by the Irish police/Norther Irish Police. Under capitalism, any sort of united Ireland, whether completely united or a federated Ireland, will be no different than it is now. The only effect unity can have no is make the Republicans and armchair nationalists feel a little better. It still won&#39;t erase the poverty that affects BOTH communities.
