The memory of our Irish brothers will never die! We shall never forget those who fought for liberty and the ideals that were put forth by the American founding fathers across the ocean!
God bless him he suffered so so much, your free in heaven and one day you'll look down smiling because we will be free, love you our great hero 🇮🇪☘️🙏❤️
This is a stylized version of Clarke's execution. Those executed were blindfolded prior to being led out at speed to prevent them focussing on what was happening. They were stood on sheets so they could be wrapped afterwards. Sadly in the case of Clarke and Ceannt they were not immediately killed and both were given the coup de gras. Clarkes wife was pregnant with their fourth (I think) child but he didn't know that and she hadn't the heart to tell him, she lost the baby. Kathleen was also the sister of Ned Daly who was also executed the following day. Patriots all.
People tend to think when the rebels attacked Dublin it was english soldiers that went in to take it back, when in fact it was an Irish regiment of the British Army. Irishman vs Irishman.
That's not really the case. Initially, the regiments stationed in Dublin, who were predominantly Irish born, fought against the rebels. That soon changed when the British realised the seriousness of the situation. Troops were sent in from Britain from April 26 onwards. Only 35% of the military deaths in Easter week were of Irish born men.
This depiction of Clarke's execution is not accurate. Clarke's 'execution' was a murder involving degradation and torture. Thomás Clarke was actually stripped naked before being shot. He did not die immediately and instead of the British soldiers putting him out of his misery, they let him suffer in agony for up to three hours before he finally passed away. Anyone who knows the life story of Thomás Clarke will know that he was the greatest and one of the most dedicated Fenians Ireland has ever had. He was the reason the 1916 Rising went ahead when it did and the first signatury of the Proclimation which declares civil liberty for all the prople Ireland no matter their creed, gender or race. Anyone who is a proud Irish citizen and cherishes their Irish passport today owes this hero a huge debt of gratitude for ridding 26 of our 32 counties of 800 years of oppression and tyranny. RIP
Clarke was from Dungannon however. Tyrone is still under British occupation. If he could have known about the future of Ireland and partition, I'm sure he would be turning in his grave.
SS Standartenfuhrer If by "my people", you mean the Aryan master race and other other non existent psuedo-historical myths, then no, I do not. Keep your occultism confined to ninteenth century retardation. We in Ireland want none of it.
A revolution that didn't need to happen. Legal constitutional independence was coming, albeit slower than some would have preferred. Did the Easter rising rebels not realise they would be put down and the UK govt would quite reasonably insist on independence by treaty and law, rather than dealing with an armed insurrection? all this art at time when English, Scots Welshmen were fighting alongside Irishmen (nationalist as well as loyalist) in truly global war for western civilisation? If the rebels ha shown statesmanship an all 32 counties United Ireland could have had full Dominion (like Can Aus & NZ) status within a decade of 1916, thereby avoiding a civil war and, more importantly, partition.
+Danny30011980 Odd you should say that. I was thinking, if I am ever in that situation, I hope they play livelier music than that. Some Credence maybe.
The British should have gotten out of Ireland a hundred years ago. Who really benefited from their occupation? Certainly not the average citizen of either nation.
@mcr1jp only a matter of time before all them old orange backward pricks die out and a referendum is called for a united ireland and it will happen in our lifetime too peacefully.. It will be the biggest thing to happen for us
The man was one of the finest that ever wore shoe leather. Got harshly treated in prison for over 15 years and came out and rolled the dice again. Nobody has the balls nowadays. We'll never see people like Tom Clarke, con colbert or James connolly ever again because people are money obsessed and no balls.i know who I'd prefer to be. My wonderful commander Thomas Clarke 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🍀🍀🇮🇪
+Exposer O' Fraud Again roaming around the internet with your bullshit Mr 'O'Fraud'...my 'bitter radar' is red hot here right now pal. Internet trolling is the mind of a sad, lonely, bitter individual. You have my sympathies...sincerely. The irony is that someone like Tom Clarke would be embarrassed that anyone would give you the least bit of credence by even acknowledging your existence. So I offer my apologies to our great Fenian dead that I'm not strong enough to resist the temptation to put you in your place
You just wrote a paragraph on how you're not going to pay the OP any mind. From an "internet trolling" standpoint, you lost. Hard. Between the two of you, only one looks "bitter".
MarkFKA they just showed a movie on what the execution was really like so he didn't really get shot well he did if u know what I mean he got shot but it's only a movie u know
Executing someone is blasphemy against God's power to judge each one of us in the hereafter. It is the height of arrogance and a lack of faith in the Creator.
because he was one of the gentleman who signed the document declaring Ireland a free republic from England in the starting of the 1916 rebellion. Just study 1916 Easter rising
didn't notice, my whole thing is I hate it when people aren't aware and we turn them away history must be remembered by everyone, we don't leave any of it out the brutality of both sides and the fact that war isn't glorious. its sh** and the more people forget the more we will repeat the same mistakes.
Any little country' 50 miles across the sea with 5 million or less is fair game for britain go & n avit with 40 or 50 million across the english sea and then see who youl defeat

watching this my heart sunk knowing these are real living breathing people that tried to defend our country god bless them all

According to one of the men in the firing squad, Clark was actually still alive after the initial shot. The officer had to finish him off.
ya I think he did
I’ve watched this like 10 times and always cry😓🤧😓
You know the blindfold is for the killers. So they don't have to look the victim in the eyes
They don’t make men like this anymore.🇮🇪

Those rifles are the Lee Enfield No. 4 Mk I model, which was not introduced until 1941.

There were also many Irishmen fighting in non-Irish regiments on the Western Front.
Many of which were Nationalists themselves who joined to fight the Germans

what film are these clips from
Thomas Clarke's accent sounds South Irish, not an Ulster accent. I grew up listening to that accent. He was Anglican as were my parents. (Low Church)
@Louise Mcilwaine Expect he was born in England and was a British Citizen. Great man though and one the power houses behind the IRB.
