Garbage?

This article is basically garbage - full of factual inaccuracies (for instance claiming DeV was Taoiseach when the position didn't even exist) and POV nonsense. I've tried to tidy it up a bit, but I think it should be dumped and started again. I have subedited the first half of this article, but it still needs to be fully wikified. I do see some problems with the Northern Ireland sections, but as I am no expert in the field I dont want to make any changes it. It is certainly POV rather than fact and some of it is plain wrong. --Sideshow 04:05, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)

The Emegency

"Irish sentiment was so Anti-British that during World War II, although the Irish government supported the Allied war effort with economic assistance, officially the Irish Free State was neutral and stayed out of the war." Did DeValera not state that the reasons for staying out of World War II was because Ireland was, at the time, a small country with a weak economy who did not have the manpower to take part in World War II --grasshopa

- Anti-British sentiment was also high, many of Ireland's prominant politicians as well as political leaders also support nuetrality because they did not want to enter into any military alliance with th United Kingdom; which did and still does posses Northern Ireland. this was the same reason for Ireland declining to join NATO in the 1970s.

I agree, I wrote this article based on information from other Irish historical websites, but I obviously got a few things wrong. I was able to succesfully write other articles on Irish history, but if this one is innacurate than I hope that others will come along and clean it up as much as possible. I've read over it lately and realized that a few parts are wrong, so for the sake of historical factualness I hope that somebody can edit this long article - Chris Gilmore

I've deleted that para. It is completely irrelevant to the topic as well as being garbage. Please read The Emergency before going much further.

POV dispute

Why is this section's neutrality being disputed? Jarble (talk) 01:27, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
