“Ireland to-day reasserts her historic nationhood…”

90th Anniversary of An Céad Dáil Éireann (the First Dáil Éireann) (Above photo from here.)

“Ireland to-day reasserts her historic nationhood the more confidently before the new world emerging from the war, because she believes in freedom and justice as the fundamental principles of international law; because she believes in a frank co-operation between the peoples for equal rights against the vested privileges of ancient tyrannies; because the permanent peace of Europe can never be secured by perpetuating military dominion for the profit of empire but only by establishing the control of government in every land upon the basis of the free will of a free people, and the existing state of war, between Ireland and England, can never be ended until Ireland is definitely evacuated by the armed forces of England….”

Help us to celebrate our past. And fight for our future!
Thanks!
