ROYALTY AND OLD ROPE UNCHANGED IN A NEW ERA – by Donal Kennedy


According to the book “THE IRISH ASSASSINS” by Julie Kavanagh – “the Queen, who followed the case with morbid interest, took considerable delight in the executions.”

The case concerned  the killing of two British Government officials in  Dublin’s Phoenix Par 1882.

Queen Victoria, who  presided over the Great Starvation in Ireland in the 1840s, the gunpoint pushing of opium on (then) weak China, and the barbaric murder of countless Indians following the “Mutiny”  had less than a balanced view of human lives,

THE TIMES (from which I gleaned the above) was dated June 5, I quoted in my last BLOG, mailed on June 9th.

The lead item of news in its June 9th issue, is that Magdalen College, Oxford is to remove “the colourised print of a 1952 photograph” of the current Queen, from the “middle common room, “the haunt of graduate .students”.

It was decided that “for some students depictions of the monarch and the British monarchy represent recent colonial history.”

The Queen was holidaying in Kenya in 1952 when her father died. And in the first eight years of her reign, upwards of 1,100 black Kenyans were hanged by her agents after farcical trials and many, many thousands were tortured and murdered, often by African troops trained and led by British officers such as the later General Kitson and renegade Irishman,  Brigadier  Michael Sylvester O’Rorke.

 O’Rorke, a veteran of the First World War and of the Royal Irish Constabulary was knighted in the New Year’s Honour List of 1955 at the height of the British reign of terror. He was an Old Boy of Blackrock College. He died in the same week as Bobby Sands, but for all his glittering awards never won a vote in a popular election. Whilst eyebrows were raised at the Christian burial of Sands, none were raised at the similar treatment of O’Rorke.

General Kitson frankly recalled how in Kenya the British organised murderous African gangs to do their dirty work for them and advocated similar tactics in the North of Ireland. Those gangs march in balaclava helmets in great numbers to this day, ready, even eager to continue their activities at the behest of British government ministers

Today June 11th is being noted for the centenary of the birth of the Duke of Edinburgh.

The late Duke was so dedicated to the human race that he wished to return as a virus to wipe as many of us as possible to make way for his bestial friends.
