walk with your head held high.....total respect
God bless u my fellow Irish brother brave man no doubt 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🙏🙏🙏
he must be brave blowing women and children up, musnt he???
Another fascinating story , what those men went through mans inhumanity to man shame on the tyrants it’s their legacy not this brave soldier’s TAL
I've just started reading the memoirs of Seamus Kearney. Peace love and respect from Scotland 🙏🏼🏴
John looks like a ‘no nonsense’ kind of fella but at the same time traumatized. Hope he’s getting on well.
John, thanks for sharing your story, at least you are free now
Heartbreaking listening to this man,& these men endured hell on earth,&💔what has been done to this island,boys have the wrong hero's these days
Big John sum man for one man a pleasure to know him and the knocker family ☘️🇮🇪
I know this man well
I can`t imagine what these men must have gone through, especially in the early days of transition from The Cages to The H Blocks and then onto The Dirty Protest and ultimately The Hunger Strike`s. Prisons today would be like a Five Star Hotel compared to that. God Bless you all.
🙏💚🇮🇪
He wasn't put there for nothing
Maybe be not - but they were treated appallingly. This place was no holiday home unlike many prisons today.Inmates were abused mentally & physically daily.
Thats obvious. But if you take the time to do some research into what it was a lot of them were supposed to have done. And the confessions that were forced out of them. By the special branch and the brit counterterrorism interrogators. By depriving them of sleep constantly pressuring them by saying things like they would be shot/and dumped on waste land. And other illegal things. They confessed under extreme pressure. And then were sentenced in a diplock court. No jury or no defence lawyers. Im not saying that all of them were treated like that. But an awful lot were. Its obvious that they were political prisoners.
@@weneverstop.4640 American interogation agent in Guantanamo bay summed it up perfectly...if you torture someone enough they will admit to anything...and undermines themselves...food for thought
Maybe Not, but at least he was there for something he believed in and that goes for the men who were also imprisoned there from the other side of the political divide. Today Prisons are just filled with low life scum who don`t have any beliefs or morals other than looking after No1.
