The funeral has taken place in Ireland of Edward O'Brien, the Irish Republican Army (I-R-A) member who blew himself up with a bomb on a bus in London.
Tight security was in place in O'Brien's hometown of Gorey in County Wexford to prevent any paramilitary groups attending the burial.
The funeral took place as British Prime Minister John Major and his Irish counterpart John Bruton met in London in an attempt to revive the stalled peace process.
The picturesque town of Gorey in County Wexford. Ten days after Edward O'Brien's death the townsfolk are still trying to come to terms with the failed bomber who lived among them.
O'Brien, described as an I-R-A rookie, died instantly when a device he was transporting went off accidentally on a bus in central London. Nine other people were injured in the blast.
But some local people see some good having emerged from the tragedy.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"Perhaps the world will see that ninety-nine point nine-nine per cent of Irish people totally condemn the activities of the I-R-A, and Gorey would be a little microcosm of that feeling that exists throughout Ireland."

The incident has also stirred many dormant feelings.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I think it has opened our eyes to what exactly is going on in this country of ours. I think we have been guilty of complacency."

Relatives and friends say O'Brien was an unlikely I-R-A recruit, but others have sought an explanation.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I guess that a young and nineteen-year-old is obviously impressionable, possibly vulnerable too, because you're pretty lonely, you feel very alone, you feel in a different culture going to a large city like London. I guess the sort of person who would have been spotted and targetted, befriended, fed a propaganda line, made to feel important by the I-R-A, I'd say it was a classic case of a very ordinary kid being dragged into the sordid depraved world of terrorism."

As the bells peeled the mourners entered the Church.
Around seven hundred townspeople looked on, some overcome with sadness at the waste of a young man's life.
O'Brien's weeping family followed the casket as it was wheeled out of the Church to begin the journey to its final resting place.
The cortege led a procession of around two thousand people through the streets of Gorey towards the cemetery.
There O'Brien's coffin was lowered into the ground.
His parents Miley and Margo, sister Lorraine and brother Gary, wept at the head of the grave as they threw in roses as a final mark of respect for the young man who met a violent death, ironically meant for others.

We as England value our sovereignty and no longer will we be subjugated by the E.U.
We collectively of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have declared our intent on becoming E.U. Member States. Cheerio.
England- That’s not the type of sovereignty we were referring.
Sometimes karma strikes at unfortunate times.
Luxx WTF are you saying? The provos killed that kid
There is no such thing as karma.
@@kennyryan625 That kid killed himself.
looks like 99.9% of Irish people were in the funeral procession
Thats was what i was thinking. Far too many IRA sycophants in the Irish Republic.
@@kevinlongman007 And there was alot more not there.
Poor kid. Exploited by evil individuals who do not represent the good Irish people. RIP, Edward.
Ed was not exploited. He volunteered to join the IRA. He volunteered to go to England. He knew what he signed himself up for and if he didn’t, the provos would’ve made it clear to him upon joining.
He didn't deserve a funeral no ira members do, karma is a funny thing and it's ironic this terrorist was killed by a terrorist
Ironic

@@thepatterpatrol26 Catholic majority in the occupied stolen six counties of Ireland 🇮🇪. National identity is 31% British only and 29% Irish only and 19% Northern Irish only in the Census 2021. So you see the gap is closing rapidly. A border referendum in 2028 will get a United Ireland 🇮🇪 voted in the majority on both sides of the border. Tiocfaidh ár lá.
