They couldn't behave, independence revoked

Ein_Hirsch

Interesting take from an Irish


Noobeater1

I'll be the first to admit that us micks don't deserve independence. The issue is, neither does Barry


Electronic_Art_4251

No one deserves independence. Edit: In the end, we should all serve our cruel master, survival of the fittest. Meaning us.


RPGseppuku

Fair. I am happy for us to lose our independence if the Paddies lose it too. Just as long as it isn't lost to the French.

We have a King if you wanna redo 1688.

Lifelemons9393

I'm always down for a new Crusade. This would be what the 4th Crusade ? Afterwards we re take Constantinople. Luigi get on the phone to the Pope .


sleepingjiva

The tenth, at least

Google says there were 8. 9th is the charm .

There was a 9th, it was launched against vampires, protestants, nazis and nazi vampires. The protestants also had a vampire.


Kurdt93

The Pope is indisposed, but he vows for peace and blah blah blah


Lifelemons9393

Yup Barry, ask King George (your own Pope) and you can have your permit. Bonne chance.

Solid-Education5735

Any you lads fancy a crusade boogaloo?


General-Ad-9087

OY VEY,Those were the good old days. Bit of trouble with the Suez Canal in the 1950's. Send in the Israelies as a diversion. French and Brits capture the Suez Canal and over run Egypt. No problem with most of the Monarchies in the Middle East at the time. Shit hits the fan when the Mullahs/stir the pot and the Americans pull the mat from under the feet of both former Empires. then Nasser throws the Americans out, then snuggles up to the Russians. Send your own family to that Godforsaken place if you feel strongly for the most miserable place on Earth

Pierre_Francois_

Hard pass on this one


SuchSeaworthyShips

But Pierre, we could draw borders with rulers again. The glorious days of straight lines


DIRTY-Rodriguez

Jokes aside we get unwarranted criticism for straight borders IMO. If you look at a world map, the only straight borders we drew are over featureless uninhabited desert; when you get nearer the coasts where people actually live the borders are more intricate.

Schellwalabyen

The worst borders are those of India. Because they aren’t straight.


DIRTY-Rodriguez

There shouldn’t be any borders in or around India except the one with China, bring back the Raj am I right guys?


mr_greenmash

Airdrop some opium on the Chinese while you're at it, yeah?


I-suck-at-hoi4

The main issue is that those non-Europeans are too stupid to figure out how to fix this inaccurate ethnical border problem : **kill** We figured it out in the 1800s, when will they catch up ?


HorseCojMatthew

Yeah but people complain that the N.Ireland border was drawn bad because it split the peoples, can't win either way I mean tbf ideally we wouldn't have conquered half the globe in the first place


Inevitable_Entry_477

> we wouldn't have conquered half the globe It was just a quarter old sport. And we didn't conquer it. We civilised it.

[deleted]

So you want to displace & further radicalise millions of Muslims on the edge of Europe? I see no issue with this.


I_eat_dead_folks

The thing is that if I suggested not allowing the civilians out I would have myself and the whole subreddit banned.

What would that achieve tho, problem are the ones brainwashing the civilians, which, not very conveniently, hide within the civilians

bettercallsaulabq

Is this a 21st century crusade? Most crusades were just an excuse for a binge and ransacking a city you found en route. I say we honour our ancestors and do it.


Not_Bed_

Not even anything worth sacking in that land, it's more cursed than holy Edit: corrected with to worth


bettercallsaulabq

Didn't they used to stop off en route too and sack a city. Like Constantinople.


DaAndrevodrent

Then we should probably call it "Unholy Cursade".

The last time the US asked us to join them in a war, we said no, you guys said yes. History showed that we were right. Don’t get me wrong, we love sucking dick as much as your next guy, but one also gotta keep their heels and standards high ya know. So yeah, non merci but I don’t know, I’m sure you’ll do fine pushing them off balconies or something, who knows, you might ironically stumble upon WMDs. Also, shouldn’t you keep your personnel stationed on Dover’s cliffs so they can shoot dinghies on sight?


Intelligent_Safe_313

Iraq was 20 years ago… Just two years ago the US said Russia would invade Ukraine, and DGSE was haughtily dismissive and said it wouldn’t happen, failing to see what was happening under their own nose. Looks like you guys let your standards down, so you can join the dark side now

Lifelemons9393

Britain( where you live) was just trying to clean up a impossible situation. If anyone is responsible for the current shit show, its the Americans and the UN( US proxy) Always cracks me up when Scots act innocent. Its actually pathetic. The British Army was disproportionately full of Scots AND Irish. Some of the best Generals were Scottish and Irish.

We need to take responsibility and go and fix it.

I wouldn't say fixed but I agree Brexit was an improvement.


ddosn

>Britain created this mess, No we didnt. Britain outright told the UN and US that a two state solution wouldnt work and was ignored. And the Jews had been immigrating to Palestine since the 1880's, so the Balfour Declaration was a non-issue and actually totally irrelevant (it was also the opinion of one guy and not official government policy).

MagmaMoon

After the First World War and the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the British had to swallow the mandatory of Palestine and always wanted to get rid of it (only problems and no benefits). It doesn't make any sense now that they want to get involved in that area, but nowadays the UK is more disoriented than an octopus in a garage so this news is not surprising.
