The men who tried to capture Michael Collins | Jan - Mar 1920 - Episode 19
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- From the summer of 1919 Michael Collins and the Squad waged a relentless Intelligence War, threatening and killing key members of the Dublin Metropolitan Police. Rattled by the attempt to kill the Lord Lieutenant in December, British authorities responded in early 1920 by replacing the head of the Royal Irish Constabulary and putting a new man over G Division. The new head of the Directorate of Intelligence at the Home Office also diverted resources to combating Collins’ intelligence network and for a time these almost proved fatal. Spies, traitors and informers had been at the heart of British policy in dealing with Irish rebellions since 1798. Early 1920 was a major test for the Republican movement, one that previous conspiracies had failed.

Tremendous RUclips on General Collins and the Squad's execution of infiltrators who were positioned by Westminster and London in Ireland, 1920. We Irish are very proud of our War Heroes.
First episode of the new year! I had a bit of sore throat recording this, hope it's not too noticeable. If you find this video interesting please share it around, more coming shortly on major events 100 years ago.
Outstanding story telling and educational in great detail

Very well produced. It's great to have so many images - of people and places. It works especially well when reading the standard history (such as Michael Foys book 'Michael Collins's Intelligence War: The Struggle Between the British and the IRA 1919-1921') and the first hand accounts of Volunteers such as O'Malley, Breen and Barry.
Great info on what Mick got up to after leaving the East End the family only ever smiled when he got a mention
Excellent!!
Again, brilliant stuff. Indebted to you James thank you so much, happy New Year buddy.
Same to you, thanks for all the support!
Very interesting. Quinlisk sounded interesting. Eugene Igoe is one I would love to hear about
Tim Pat Coogan wrote that "[Igoe] would have made an ideal addition to the Squad himself." I'd like to know more about him, too. 😀
great pace .. great series of relevant facts ... great fodder for the amateur historian. Anything planned for MC centennial in Aug 2022?
Thanks very much. Nothing concreate planned at the moment, I'll be taking a bit of a break around this time next year but the intention is to continue on until May 2023.
@@TheIrishNationLives Thanks for the feedback .. I look forward to your upcoming work.

Martin savage tried to kill french on ashtown row 🇮🇪32
Never have I seen a comment accusing devalera being a brit spy.
From the outside looking in, my instincts tell me exactly that.
a lot of 'Lethers were written', great commentary though :)
I went to an Irish Catholic school in England and I was never told the truth about what happened in Ireland only what the English version of history was
@@johnboylan3591 yes English/ British propaganda is the greatest! English history class doesn’t include Robert the Bruce and Bannockburn.
