I still feel for Ireland — you should feel for us

THE right to protest must be preserved. After all, that’s what, in part, 1916 was all about in Ireland.

For the USA, 9/11 was as momentous and unexpected (and undeserved, for that matter) as Pearl Harbor.

If, without warning, terrorists killed hundreds of uninvolved Irish citizens in an attack on Bus Áras or the GPO in Dublin, would not Irish people feel put out?
