He opened with a clanger, dating the Battle of Fredericksberg to September, rather than December 1862.
He also quoted a speech by Lloyd George. I knew that it was by Lloyd George and was surprised that
TDs who could remember the old blackguard didn’t throw things at their guest.
I didn’t know that the speech, about “Five Foot Nations” had been in defence of the Little Catholic
“Nation” of Belgium, to whose defence Britain, and deluded Irishmen, had rallied in 1914. The news
of Kennedy’s election to the White House in November 1960 broke on the same day as the news of
Irish soldiers serving with the UN in the former Belgian Congo had been massacred.
Belgium as is NOT a Nation but a buffer state established by the Brits. It is populated by Catholics who speak Flemish and Catholics “Walloons” who speak French. The English refer to one city, which speaks Flemish, by the French word BRUGGE. The locals call it BRUGGE. All the signposts are in FLEMISH only, and intermarriage, fraternisation, and other intercourse between the communities appears to be unusual. BRUGGE is an anagram of BUGGER and only silly buggers would fight for the freak state.
The King of the Belgians, Leopold, was one of the greatest swine in history. The Congo was misruled
as his personal estate, and his crimes revealed to the world by Roger Casement.
Following the revelations the Territory was transferred to the Belgian State, which continued the robbery and mistreatment of the population.
On 30th June 1960 the then King of the Belgians, Bauduain purported to hand Independence to the
territory’s inhabitants in its capital, Leopoldville, named after his sinister ancestor, in a ceremony in
he extolled him.
The elected Prime Minister, Patrice Lumumba, protested at the speech and the Force Publique
which was supposed to be the new State’s Army revolted. A province controlled by the Belgian
mining giant, Union Miniere seceded, with forces led by European Mercenaries.
The total area of the former Belgian Congo is over 900,000 square miles – greater than the combined total of Spain, France, Germany, Sweden and Norway. The area of Belgium is about equal to the Irish province of Munster.
In November 1960 a few days before JFK’s Inauguration as President of the USA, Patrice Lumumba
was murdered by a Belgian, a gold tooth removed and his body dissolved so that not a trace of it survives. The murder has been wrongly claimed by a CIA agent and a British Agent.
The Congo has remained exploited by Western predators to this day.
Not long before JFK’s Irish visit, he made Winston Churchill an honorary citizen. He claimed to
model his own political conduct on that of Churchill, and his speech delivery on that of the old
brute.
I’m fairly sure that Churchill wrote all his own speeches.
I don’t think JFK did, any more than he wrote “Profiles in Courage.”
Correction:
THE FRENCH FOR “BRUGGE” is “BRUGES”.
The Brits and their Irish imitators, perversely use the French title.
London has separate Consulates for each of the language communities.
And each of the communities have English language radio broadcasts representing those communities,
Not the Belgian State or “NATION”
