Mountbatten: Death Of A Royal

Ойын-сауық

The bomb that killed Lord Louis Mountbatten was probably the most devastating attack of the Provisional IRA's campaign and the moment 'The Troubles' claimed their highest profile victim. This landmark documentary interviews the key figures of the tragedy, and assesses how well the scars have healed. We look at Mountbatten's life and the impact his death had on the village of Mullaghmore and on the Royal family.

    Terrorism is horrific enough, but I can't imagine the cruelty in one who'd think nothing of killing innocent children. Our ancestors on Mom's side were Irish, then moved to the deep American south during a great famine. How ironic that, after being oppressed for generations, they'd be racists in their new country - having no difficulty with oppression of another minority. Grateful for the next generation who were anti-racist. Not so on our father's side. Here's to America waking up before we shatter in the hatred. July '23

    ​@@mortalclown3812hi, Irish person here - I can ASSURE YOU that the overwhelming VAST majority of people here in Ireland are not racist in any form or fashion whatsoever, regardless of their background.... I grew up in Ulster during the troubles: I can personally attest that we were always told that if we were in any kind of trouble at all we could go home and ask for help and to be in no doubt that my parents would do everything in their power to help us (as long as we told them the truth, no matter how bad the truth is - "We can work with the truth, any truth, no matter how bad you think it is, we will be able to deal with it and help you.... We can't help you effectively if we don't know what we're dealing with though.." is what we were always told!!) *THERE WAS HOWEVER, ONE SIGNIFICANT CAVEAT TO THIS: IF ANY OF US HAD GONE HOME AND SAID THAT WE'D DECIDED TO JOIN "THE🤮 CAUSE" - WE WOULD HAVE BEEN DISOWNED ON THE SPOT!!! IT WOULD'VE BEEN "THERE'S THE DOOR, DON'T LET IT HOT YOU ON THE WAY OUT... AND ONCE YOU REACH THE FAR SIDE AND HAVE FINISHED EXTRACTING MY BOOT FROM YOUR BACKSIDE, JUST THROW IT IN THE BIN, I DON'T WANT IT BACK!!!" - A viewpoint I'm in total agreement with as an adult!!!* But No, most Irish aren't remotely racist toward anyone!!!!

    +cinnaplid "Q: Do you know where the custom of placing lit candles in windows started?Placing lit candles in the windows arises from the British persecution against the Catholic Church in Ireland. Since the time King Henry II invaded Ireland in 1171, persecution against the Irish has existed. This persecution increased tremendously in the wake of the Protestant movement, especially under Elizabeth I and then Oliver Cromwell.The logic was simply this: the British conquerors were Protestant and the Irish people were Catholic; therefore, to totally subjugate the Irish people, the British had to crush their religion, and that meant crushing the Catholic Church.This persecution was formalized and legalized in what were known as the Penal Laws. Political philosopher Edmund Burke wrote (in a Letter to Sir Hercules Langrishe):All the penal laws of that unparalleled code of oppression were manifestly the effects of national hatred and scorn toward a conquered people whom the victors delighted to trample upon and were not at all afraid to provoke. They were not the effect of their fears, but of their security…whilst that temper prevailed, and it prevailed in all its force to a time within our memory, every measure was pleasing and popular just in proportion as it tended to harass and ruin a set of people who were looked upon as enemies of God and man; indeed, as a race of savages, who were a disgrace to human nature itself.With the rise of William and Mary, the penal laws were perfected. The penal laws, which were designed to eradicate Catholicism by making the practice of the faith too burdensome, included the following: All Catholic clergy were ordered to leave the country by May 1, 1698; if after that date they were found remaining, they would be imprisoned and then exiled; and if they returned they would be liable to being hanged until unconscious, drawn (disemboweled while alive), and quartered (beheaded and cut into four pieces). Catholics were forbidden to practice the faith, attend Mass, receive an education, send a child to a Catholic teacher, send a child to a Catholic school abroad, hold public office, engage in commerce, live in a corporate town, purchase or lease land, vote or hold arms for protection. Punishments for violations included confiscation of goods, fines, imprisonment, exile and even death. Burke commented in his Tract on the Popery Code: “There was not a single right of nature or benefit of society which had not been either totally taken away or considerably impaired.” Even Chief Justice Robinson, during the reign of George I stated, “The law does not suppose any such person to exist as an Irish Roman Catholic.”Despite this persecution, the Catholic faith kept the Irish strong. Bishops and priests continued to minister to the people, traveling circuits and offering Mass on “Mass rocks” in open fields. Hiding behind hedges, which provided easy look-out and escape, schoolmasters continued to teach the children, not just regular studies, but the faith and Irish heritage; they were thereby given the name “Hedge Schoolmasters.” And so the Irish people held true to their faith and culture.With this in mind, we find the use of candles in the windows. During Christmas, every faithful Irish Catholic family hoped to have a priest visit their home so that they could receive the sacraments and in return offer him hospitality. So they would leave their doors unlocked and place candles in the windows to signal a priest that he was welcome and would be safe. Sometimes, a single candle would appear in several windows, or three candles in one window, one each representing Jesus, Mary and Joseph.Of course the British persecutors became suspicious and asked the purpose of this action. So the faithful Irish Catholics responded, “Our doors are unlocked and candles burn in our windows at Christmas, so that our Blessed Mother Mary, St. Joseph and Baby Jesus, looking for a place to lodge, will find their way to our homes and be welcomed with open hearts.” Of course, the British considered such a display another sign of superstition and “silly popery.”Here is the origin of this custom, still cherished by the Irish. Of course, this custom of placing candles in the windows was brought to America by the Irish immigrants and has since become very popular. However, we must never lose sight of its meaning and historical background. As we celebrate Christmas, may we also open our hearts and homes to Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Christ is our light, who entered this world to scatter sin and darkness. Having been enlightened by Christ through Holy Baptism, we must have a strong loyalty to our Church. We too must realize that the greatest gift of all is our faith, a faith which enabled the Irish to triumph over the most heinous persecutions." by Father William Saunders (This article courtesy of the Arlington Catholic Herald.)

Maybe you could comment if you had the slighest clue of how growing up in the North of Ireland was! But yeah you dont! Biasedness by the British government in housing, bias in employment, protestants got everything! us catholics were treated like nobodys, unwanted. Gerrymandering! I used to get searched by British Army members everyday on my way to work because of the area i was coming out of was republican. I didnt need it or want it! They paraded streets like they owned them calling us and doing whatever they wanted. Normal Irish people were terrorised everyday. We want to get into deaths too? what about Bloody Sunday? What about Aidan McAnespie? I could go on all day about the atrocities the British Army caused up here in Northern Ireland and again they were on OUR land. Something they stole from us. A foreign military on our streets, oppressing us! But yet we're the nascississts with no human compassion for simply just fighting back. Logic!

    Is it too much to hope for ? That people can make comments without making scurrilous unproven accusations whilst using such disgusting language ? Is this the level of their knowledge and intellect ? The tragedy lies in the fact that the boat was blown up with innocent people on board . The men who did this are are beyond description . Mountbatten was their target , easy target , no honour attached but they showed themselves to be the sort of dishonourable dirt that they are . His family were also innocent BUT that little trusting and proud boy Paul , makes it it even more disgusting , revolting and depraved . What had he ever done in his short life ? His life was not expendable , his life was worth everything . The sickness behind this leaves me cold and I shall forever despise the perpetrators of this and continue to wish them everlasting hell . My thoughts and prayers , to this day , remain with Paul's family and also the Mountbattens , a family who knew they might be in the firing line but still trusted on the decency of the Irish people . Paul cannot be included in this , the firing line and the fact they didnt give a damn about this decent little boy and his family tells me all I need to know about these abhorrent savage terrorists . I so pray that there is a hell of misery awaiting them .

    Admiral of the Fleet Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma, KG, GCB, OM, GCSI, GCIE, GCVO, DSO, PC, FRS (born Prince Louis of Battenberg; 25 June 1900 - 27 August 1979) was a British naval officer and statesman, an uncle of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and second cousin once removed of Elizabeth II. During the Second World War, he was Supreme Allied Commander, South East Asia Command (1943-46). He was the last Viceroy of India (1947) and the first Governor-General of independent India (1947-48). From 1954 until 1959 he was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as Chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as Chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year. In 1979, Mountbatten, his grandson Nicholas, and two others were killed by the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), which had placed a bomb in his fishing boat, Shadow V, in Mullaghmore, County Sligo, Ireland.

    Republicans and other gloater's will be surprised to know that apart from a circle of sycophants Mountbatten was cordially detested by the British establishment. He was described as a world class public relations organisation with a single client - himself. His political manoeuvrings lead one courtier to say he was so bent if he swallowed a nail he would pass a corkscrew. The Navy nicknamed him "The master of disaster" and his arrogant attitude to his superiors would have got any other officer kicked out many times over. Even his title "Earl Mountbatten of Burma" is bunk. He was Commander in Chief but his staff were quite successful in blocking his bungling intervention while the Burma campaign was won by General Slim, a former factory clerk from Birmingham. When his ship was almost blown in two he won high praise for getting it back to port omitting to mention it was his own stupidity that got it torpedoed in the first place. Appointed Head of Combined Operations he launched the Dieppe raid which was an unmitigated disaster almost wiping out the Canadian Brigade. An angry Lord Beverbrooke told him to his face "You have murdered my countrymen! A British survivor of the Japanese death camps remembered seeing him in Singapore in 1945 in his immaculate white uniform telling them "You should not have allowed yourself to be captured in the first place." True he did about as well as anyone could have getting out of India but that Nehru was screwing his wife and probably him helped relations a lot. A British writer summed up his career as walking away from disaster after disaster his reputation and white uniform immaculate until fate finally caught up with him in the form of the IRA. Mourn Mountbatten? Officially maybe but had they not blown up other people at the same time quite a few in Britain would have nodded quiet approval and some old Canadians would probably have pushed the button for them.

    Callthe Banners Here in Ireland - at least among the people I have known my entire life - it was common knowledge that Mountbatten was a pedophile. There were jokes about how - in Burma - he was called “Mountbottom”, that he was particularly fond of young boys 11-14 years old. And he was linked to the Kincora scandal. The freaks who ran the Kincora Home for Boys here in Belfast used to take boys across the water to Britain - they were regularly pimped out to high ranking members of Thatcher’s Tory government and members of the Royal Family. The IRA did the entire world a favor blowing his filthy, perverted arse up. If you want to know more about Kincora - Chris Moore wrote a book called The Kincora Scandal.

If you can't back it up then stop being a malicious coward. Plus two wrongs never make a right, if the British do something wrong it doesn't help to start killing for retaliation. Too many innocent people end up caught in the middle.

So its not very likely he did come close to an enemy bullet; nor would any of the common sailors on any of the boats he commanded.

    He was an asshole and had inflicted much harm on many people throughout his life. I was young when I heard he was dead and I thought. Too good for him; it should have happenrd sooner. I guess his Brit security was too busy harassing the Irish to be overly concerned with his safety. His major accomplishment was pimping out his nephew to marry Queen Elizabeth, a goal for which he had striven for years. I guess he was a good stud, given the number of their children. Old mountbatten's influence popped out in Andrew, I think. He wasn't a royal. He got tossed a baronetcy following WWII and got to eat at the royal table. He probably didn't like going to the Irish estate until his wife died because it was her family's home, not his. What a prick. HE wanted to be "Lord of the Manor" and no manor, nor higher rank, was forthcoming in England. I guess his nephew didn't have much influence with his wife. Jeez, that boat was tiny and had very little freeboard and was overloaded with people. Was he too cheap to build an adequate vessel?

    have you watched ivanhoe the one with elizabeth taylor, the scene with king john at the joust , the angles and saxons, they were both from germany, though as people move from place to another they are not all entirely german, but they are german tribes amongst others. angles speak english a dialect from german, and the saxons german. though english at that time probably sounded different from today. these tribes have been in this country since that time. the only thing is that others came after, different countries, and have intermarried that is many of them.

    Private21 you clearly know nothing. Mountbatten was crucial to the war in the Far East. He got rid of the inept generals we had in the theatre and installed some of the best Generals in the war in Field Marshall Slim. Very easy to write him off but his charisma and experience changed the tide of war at a point where Britain had very little to celebrate

    No, you are clouded in your judgement. A royalist? The bastard's position was only attained through his his royal arrangement, not through capability. Historian Andrew Roberts depicted Mountbatten as 'a man who was utterly careless of other people's lives.' At the Admiralty he was known as the 'Master of Disaster.' Lord Beaverbrook went as far as to call Mountbatten a Murderer. Hmm perhaps no differerence than the IRA?

    Private21 historian James Holland paints the unbiased light in that it was his appointment that changed the course of the war in the Far East. This was post Victorian britain, a royal family member was the right person to appoint in his position as he knew the political game as well as the military in order to deal with the American, Chinese, Indian allies we needed to organize to stop a complete collapse of India and therefore the supplies for the war in Europe.

    The good does not outweigh the bad. You have your facts on his missions in the Far East of which I have not studied. I however have facts on him being a poor Naval Commander. Stalin,Hitler for example may have had good attributes but these were two of the worst murdering folk ever known. Perhaps in future you may concentrate more on the actual detail in a statement?

    You have made some vague generalizations and quoted from others. But you did not actually say what he did that would justify calling him inept. All you've really said is "so-and-so says he was inept therefore he must have been." How about actually stating some facts instead of making vague generalizations?

    What democratic decision was taken by Catholic families who rightfully lived in the 6 counties of Ulster prior to Partition? Who gave them a say before they were stripped of their Irish nationality?Why were areas which held a Catholic majority not given the same majority representation on town and city councils?Why were the Unionists so afraid of the civil rights movement?why were nationalists treated like second class citizens?Why did ordinary men and women,mothers and fathers,sons and daughters,even grandparents feel that resorting to a violent struggle was the only way to defend their lives and their communities? These IRA members were not highly trained killers,like the members of the British Armed Forces,these were ordinary people who were willing to kill or be killed in their struggle for basic rights that they should have possessed anyway as a normal right. Why do you never mention the other groups that killed and maimed innocent people in NI.Did the Army not murder 187 innocent people?Did the loyalist groups not also resort to barbaric and evil methods of torture and murder (The Shankill Butchers?Who had the highest rate of sectarian murders? People always argue that republicans want it all and that they accept no responsibility for their actions.But how many people believe that the IRA are totally responsible for the 3500+ deaths and murders during that period.More than one group is responsible and that can not be denied.

    +tony lennon yes, hatred is a dreadful dreadful thing, the decisions of a government set up folk against each other as nations and then the hatred can last decades. My mother went through Siberia simply because of where she lived, her husband fought and died in the battle of Britain yet at the end of the war she and all the other Polish weren't allowed to march in the VE celebrations...in case it upset the dictator Stalin. There are huge injustices done. A war is begun round a table and ends round a table but not one if those round the table takes part. I could go on, but we have to move forward. I am pleased that you are in a much more peaceful situation and hope and pray that in time people can mix more freely and overcome past differences. The trouble with ISIS is that it is formed too out of hatred and bigotry. I cannot understand how dualistic these people are in their thinking, changing someone's mentality is a very difficult thing yet fanaticism always has a base line. I wish you all the best, we are all humans after all and you deserve peace.

Although I know some like to blame the west for everything that has ever happened, it just isn't factual or honest. And considering how many of you hate Jewish people, not surprised you guys would try to blame everything on them. Unfortunately for all of us, human beings are violent and can commit evil acts in ALL shades, in EVERY ethnicity, and around the entire world. Religion, or rather the intolerance of others religions remain the biggest contributor to human death by other humans. Islam is no different.
