What type of madness was responsible for the demolition of Nelson's Pillar in Sackville Street/O'Connell Street Dublin in 1966?

A solo run by a former IRA member, Liam Sutcliffe, claimed he had placed the bomb which detonated in the Pillar.

The government condemned the act calling it an outrage , the monument was actually liked by a lot of Dubs

The statues at the Shelbourne were removed without permission as the building is a listed building , their removal seems to be in keeping with the ridiculous notion that this in some way makes amends for past events in history by wiping any links to such away

The audacity of the unwell extreme far right fascists to be labelling Antifa as terrorists is positively palpable given that pretty much all US domestic terror attacks are committed by right wing extremists. This is another typical case of the hypocrisy of the Nazi nutters and exemplifies why it is wise to simply ignore everything they ever say.

Thanks for that Dermot.

That reminds me of the joke about the foreign tourist in O'Connell Street asking a local for directions.

He was instructed to go to where Nelson's Pillar used to be and hang a sharp left.

WEll, I thought it was funny.
