They're not an ethnic group though, But I heard that there's 4 million Muslims who consider themselve Socialists, 4 million Americans who consider themselves Socialists and 8 million who consider themselves Progressives.
But then again no one's going to say that we haven't got our own country because they'll just say, China.

It doesn`t quite reach millions but the Irish in the North of Ireland are an ethnic group.

They have only part of a country. As long as the british occupation is in force Ireland is not the 32 counties it rightly should be.
Scotland out of Britain.Britain out of Ireland
no, i think you'll find it's impossible to have 'part of a country', it's either a country or it isn't. Your expanstionist desires are no different than those of the NAZIs when they tried to take the parts of Czeckoslovakia which had ethnic germans in it. Or in fact their conquering of Austria.
The IRA are imperialists who wish to conquer more land for themselves, whiel selling out on any kind of principles they might claim to have. They are not socialist, for if they were they would try to make ireland socialist, instead of trying to conquer more land. The IRA and all other such organisations (like the RIRA) are nationalist and socialist, and we all know what THAT means....

I think the blame for the problems in Northern Ireland are the result of the Highland clearances.
That's where most of the protestants in Ireland are desended from
Then again there was a pope in 13 someodd who declared that ireland was the property of England.

No, I think you will find that you can have part of a country. Like Britain has Ulster. My desire is not for Ireland to take over parts of other countries but to take back what is their land.
Ulster is Irish. The fact that it has more brits in it does not make it right for Britain to claim it as British.
If I broke in to your home and moved my family in would it eventually belong to me? Well it is the same idea. For you to compare this to the Nazis is unbelievable.
I have not mentioned the IRA and certainly never claimed they are socialist.
It is very honourable of you to want to save ulster from imperialists. Because every one knows that Britain has no time for imperialism.
The IRA have one goal, to reunite Eire. No one thinks they are then going to govern the country.
I really cannot believe some of the comments you have come up with. If it is either a country or isn`t what does that make Scotland,Wales or England.
Moskitto, you have a good point but I think alot of Scots that moved to Ulster were also from Ayrshire and the south of Scotland.
Go on home British soldiers go on home...
Scotland out of Britain.Britain out of Ireland
no, you cannot have 'part of a country'. You can own illegitimate territories, but i think you will find that the people of northern ireland don't even want to be part eire.
It does not have 'Brits' in it, as there is no such ethnicity as brits. It has Irish people in it. Irish people who want to be part of the multi-national organisation called Britain.
Actually, ever heard of squatter's rights?
If you do occupy a set of land owned by someone else for a length of time, and they do not reoccupy the land, it does in fact become your property.
I think a few hundred years qualifies.
You don't mention the IRA, but you insinuate them by spurting their doctrine.
Yes, i do fear for the people of Ulster as far as imperialists goes.
And no, I am not, as you seem to beleive, Britain. Nor am i, in fact, a british patriot. Nor do i in fact beleive in the validity in any terms of nations. They are artificial boundaries set up in the mind. You show a very primitive form of nationalism, in which you seem to have this peculiar beleif that certain ethnicities have rights to certain lands. All men as brothers have all rights to all lands.
As for the IRA's cause, they claim to be socialist, they have a legitimate political wing and they call themselves revolutionary. Their cause as you identify it is exactly why they are not these things. They should seek to change the governance of their country, instead of seeking to expand it's borders.
And my comments? i think it's perfectly legitimate to call nationalist socialists NAZIs, because thats what NAZI stands for, or didnt you know that?
Scotland, Wales and England? Non-entities that exist only in mind and in the actions of men. All of which (as institutions) deserve to be destroyed, as does Eire. I would not condone any killing in the name of those 'nations' either.
And yes, British soldiers should go home, but what is their home? As i have already said, all land is everyone's, unless you're a nationalist socialist. Are you? If not, then anywhere they go is rightfully their home.

The people in the North of Ireland who dont want to be part of Eire are british not Irish. I suggest you tell people in certain parts of West Belfast they are Irish and see the reaction you get.
As for squatters land. The Irish have never left the north and never will.
The only thing the IRA are really fighting for is to remove the British from Ireland. And I do not show a very primitive form of nationalism as I am not Irish and at no point have claimed to be.
Yes all men should have rights to all land. Just as wee girls should have the right to walk through the front gate of their school. But a nation should have self determination and your arguement that after a certain amount of time this land can`t be considered Irish is ridiculous.
The IRA are seeking to change the governance of their country.They are seeking to change it from a british governmet to an Irish government.

There is no such ethnicity as 'British'.
Yes, wee girls should have the right to wlak through a gate to school, but people completely unrelated to something should have the right to not be blown up for it.
No nation should have self-determination, because nations are an invented fable that the capitalist overlord uses to control the masses.
Ofcourse it can't be considered Irish, in the same way no land can be considered belonging to a nation.
Actually, i will think you will find that in Northern Ireland they have their own governing assembly, which works in co-operation with both the British government and the Eire government.
However, thats still shite, because it is a 'liberal democracy' (i use the term to refer to that kind of society which PRETENDS to be liberal and democratic, but which isnt) and what would the IRA rpelace it with? shock! another 'liberal democracy'.
It matters not to me what the ethnicity of the people sitting in a liberal democratic government are, it is evil, wrong, and needs destruction.
Commiebastard if nationality is an invented fable then so to is ethnicity.
I do not support all of the IRAs tactics ie the bombing of unrelated people. I do agree with their cause however.
Only someone who does not live in a country with a devolved parliment could really believe that they have any power. These assemblies in Scotland Wales and the North of Ireland are only gestures to try and stop the coming break up of the UK.
I don`t know why so many people on this board feel that you should have no feeling for your country. I will always be proud of my nations past and culture just as the Irish are of theirs. As long as you are not xenophobic or believe you are superior to other nations there is no problem. Possibly the reason you feel like that is that because Britain is probably the most xenophobic nation in the world. This is part of the reason I hate Britain so much, all that Brittania empire crap. Ulster is one of the last parts of the empire and the sooner it returns to its own people the better.

Dear Commie,
Maybe I should cry because of what you said but I won't. You seem to hate all kind of differences, do you think that your ideas are so good that other people have all mistaken? It seems so... too bad... for you. ha-ha
Well, if you say that nations doesn't exist then what will you say about peoples? Probably you won't say anything deeply intellectual but I still would like to know.
Celticsocialist, I am very happy because you are proud of your nation. Everyone should be and I am sure that in their heart they are!

Well, i had stopped posting in this thread because i was having the same argument in another one in the chit chat section, and i dont particularly want the same argument in two places at the same time... so would you do me a favour and bring it up there?
It was my pleasure to do the favour!
