Partitioned Ireland's current socio-economic crisis is hardly a fitting and timely tribute to the sacrifice of the seven signatories (James Connolly, Padraig Pearse, Eamonn Ceannt, Joseph Plunkett, Thomas MacDonagh, Thomas Clarke, and Sean MacDiarmada) and their loyal and dedicated compadres.
These true Sons of Éireann, would never have envisaged her current socio-economic blight when they drafted and signed the most fundamentally important document in Irish history, the cornerstone of her Independence and Sovereignty, Phoblacht Na h'Éireann, on 24th April 1916. The roots of partitioned Ireland 2010's newest blight upon her peoples have this TIME been sown by self-proclaimed Irishmen and Irishwomen who have placed their own self-interest, greed, cronyism and political elitism above the needs of their fellow Irishcountrymen and Irishcountrywomen.
