Entry: Spying on Uncle Sam Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/spying_on_uncle_sam#25160 Post contents: Andrew, as a scumbag Irish American I cannot refrain from asking you whether there is any point in upholding England's right to exercise sovereignty in "its " territory of Northern Ireland when its sovereignty over Birmingham and East London is in the present state that it is. To be sure, the other twenty six counties if Eire once enjoyed the benefits of such sovereignty, as did certain erstwhile British colonies in North America (there were thirteen, I believe). I aver that there would not exist so many scumbag Irish Americans and Australians today, had it not been for the temperate and well-thought out exercise of said sovereignty. Israel-firsters consider any display of ethnic identity and solidarity on the part of gentiles threatening to themselves, yet seize upon such to justify their own fifth-column activities. Tu Quoque ("you too") has never been a valid defense in criminal courts. Happily, no such conflict exists between Americans who nurture feelings for Ireland and their loyalty to their own country.
