I could not have mad this video without the help of these sources.
As a Loyalist I Admire this man.🇬🇧
It was 6 months after his escape he was return to the H blocks .. not 10 days
He never sold out when Adams and McGuinness did he carried his loyalty to the end God rest his soul 🙏
There's a special place for sell outs as Martin will be enjoying now and Gerry will be joining him soon working for the enemy.
As a British Person I have read and seen a fair bit about Brendan Hughes and although I don`t condone what went on over there, from both sides, I think that he is someone who believes passionately in his fellow Irishmen and is a Man of principle and not a Bigoted sectarian. My respect to the Man. RIP.
Brendan Hughes was a feckin LEGEND. He knew when to fight and when to talk. Godspeed. Brendan.
Good study I see.
True to the last. Hughes lives on in us all.
True soldier of the Republic !
Smart loyal and never cracked.
He quoted back in the day " never be up front, always think big don't be nervous
People are stupid when there nervous."
Truly great.. no animosi just good man In an impossible situation but stood up for what should have been by any legal process
He was a terrorist nothing nothing less
I met him in 2004 and he bought me a beer. I had no idea who he was and I looked him up later.
The Light shines so bright in the DARK .
True hero!
I admire this man. He fought for his country, don’t support killing and violence but to be free you have to fight. He comes across to me as well spoken and courageous. RIP Brendan.
One of the good ones never changed his stance to the end, true patriot of the Irish cause while seen some of his former comrades give it up for power and money in stormont gov
His escape from long Kesh would make a good film.
RIP Brendan.
The Dark could tell a story.
Yep Btendan was a true patriot and warrior. RIP brother.
R.i.p
A Ture solider of ireland
God rest the DARK a true warrior 🇮🇪🔫
A water
Pistol pointing at the tricolour lol. Summed up in two emojis
Thank you for this video.
It must also be remembered that NI was settled with Anglo-Scot protestants after 1690. The native Irish landowners were thrown out, their tenants thrown out. There was great prejudice against Catholics by the English, and it played out that in Brendan's time, Catholics could not find jobs, were denied sufficient housing, could not vote.
Brendan Hughes was a republican legend of his time though this can be said of many others who played there part n this phase of the struggle for the freedom fighters who fought n died for there bravery n courageous skills can not be forgotten us as republicans have a job to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for Irish freedom may there memory live on like tone Pearse before them all over the 6 counties and beyond Erin go Bragh🇮🇪32
He broke the Irish Republican army's code book. He should never have sold his story to the Americans. End all be all. 🍷🍷🍷👿
Rest in peace hero
A legend with balls as big as melons
The dark was the epiphany of an "Irish Republican" not for debate..
Met the dark Hugh's in Belfast 90s . about the only Provo I had respect for most of the rest all touts
You mean gerry and martin
@@brianjohnson6053 that's two of them
great video.... great man.
Excellent, balanced (as much as it could be) video. Should be watched by all who have an interest in this area.
There goes my hero! RIP Brendan! Beir bua!
one word to describe Brendan is legend
Bones Albania Belfast is Ireland not UK our day will come
Brendan Hughes a true Irish patriot LEGEND love listening to the man speak on vids Republican to the core
He broke the IRA code book he's not a hero. He should be ashamed of him self. 👿😎
R.i.p Brendan Hughes a true Irish hero.
LEGEND🙏🙏🙏
R.I.P brother
loved it, but brendan was born on the loyalist end, not the lower falls, iin fact, just before he became active over the threatening of 'st peters' he was 'marked' as protestant, and potential victim, bc of where he was born.. =) good, respectful piece tho. sláinte mo chara, erin go bragh.
Quiet like the man, shame he had to go through all the troubles, I blame the political issues mainly, if born in a different Country in different circumstances he could have had a very different life. Saying that if he was convicted of terrorism in say America he could have faced the death penalty.
His son says your full of shit we are in Ireland mate.
This video shows nothing towards the Republic or Brendan..
So his own words its wasn't worth it
Never knew my grandas cousin was this big
His son says who's your granda
@Danial Morgan yet his son lives with me so I probably know more than u do and I wasn't speaking to u.
@Danial Morgan give me your snap and I'll show a picture of the both of us mate then we'll see your reaction
@@Anthony_-ud3jt yall crack me up.
WELL SAID DAVID HUGHES GOD BLESS CHARA

If you paid money to study Irish history at the university of South Dakota I would advise you to get your money back..this video is the most amateur attempt at the complex history of my country that I have ever seen, so much so that I doubt the credentials of this channel, or indeed this University. If this is the best attempt at the history of the complexity of the 30 years of the Troubles of Northern Ireland then shame on you..this is Trump University standard..shame on you.
@Dianna R. I said "complex" history , not complete history?? This is not even a snapshot of Irish History, it is devoid of any analysis / interrogation or attempt at providing context, therefore it is would be better described as propaganda. I presume your use of caps lock is to indicate that you are shouting? The Wonderful President remark explains a lot....ná léacht faoi sin nach bhfuil a fhios agat faoi.
@@bobwaits4683bet you're wishing he was still president now😂
