Ngibuke umdlalo wokuhlungela iNdebe Yomhlaba wonke yabesifazane base-Ireland behlula iScotland ngoLwesibili ebusuku futhi ngajabula ngempumelelo yabo.
However, ngaphatheka kabi ukuzwa ukuthi ingoma ye-pro-IRA yaculwa iqembu labadlali abasebasha egunjini lokubhalela ngemva komdlalo.
Abanye babo bangase bangakubongi ukubaluleka kwengoma ethi “Ooh, ah, up the 'Ra”, kodwa lokho akukuthetheleli ukuhlanganyela kwabo.
Ngenkathi u-Limerick ewina isicoco sokuphonsa i-All-Ireland ngo-2018, abadlali nabalandeli bacula ingoma ehambisana ne-IRA. Sean South of Garryowen egumbini lokugqoka eCroke Park nakwezinye izindawo.
Ibhuku Izimpilo Ezilahlekile nguDavid McKittrick et al uhlu futhi uxoxa indaba emfushane mayelana ne-3,600 yalabo ababulawa emkhankasweni wodlame eNyakatho Ireland.
Sikweleta ukubonga kumphathi wase-Ireland u-Vera Pauw, hhayi nje kuphela ngempumelelo yeqembu lase-Ireland kodwa ngokuxolisa kwakhe okunemininingwane nokusuka enhliziyweni ngalokhu kuhlambalaza okungamukeleki kwezisulu zodlame ngalesi sikhathi.
Ngo-August odlule, isekela likamongameli we-Sinn Féin uMichelle O'Neill waphendula umbuzo ophathelene nobudlova be-IRA ngokuthi: “Ngicabanga ukuthi ngaleso sikhathi kwakungekho enye indlela.”
Ekusebenzelaneni kwabantu kukhona njalo okunokuthula esikhundleni sodlame lwezepolitiki.
Uma bonke abantu base-Ireland bezobumbana ngokweqiniso nangokuthula, abaholi bethu akumelwe nje baxolise ngokubulala okungenasizathu okudlule kodwa futhi balahle ubudlova obunjalo esikhathini esizayo.
