NORTHERN IRELAND - No Border, No Brexit

"Will Brexit jeopardize 21 years of peace in Northern Ireland?" PBS NewsHour 3/7/2019

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  As the Brexit deadline looms, the United Kingdom and the European Union are both feeling uncertain.  Ireland faces an especially complex dynamic; It will remain part of the EU, but it shares a border with the UK's Northern Ireland, which will not.  Twenty-one years after the Good Friday Agreement, what does Brexit mean for peace in a fraught region?  Special correspondent Jane Ferguson reports.

NORTHERN IRELAND - Religious Conflict

A reminder, religion is NOT all good, especially by fanatics that believe their religious beliefs are the ONLY true belief (aka intolerance). This applies to Northern Ireland and Fundamentalist Muslims (Taliban, Iran, etc).

Also note that one of the attitudes displayed in this video is people are 'different' just because of their religion. IMHO this is saying 'they' are not people.

Excerpt

SUMMARY: Protesters have been out on the streets of Belfast in recent days in advance of Thursday's annual parade honoring Protestant King William's victory over his Catholic rival in 1690. Special correspondent Kira Kay reports on the ongoing religious tension -- 14 years after Ireland's sectarian conflict formally ended.

JUDY WOODRUFF (Newshour): Protesters have been out on the street in Belfast for the past two days in advance of an annual parade tomorrow. NewsHour special correspondent Kira Kay looks at the ongoing religious tensions 14 years after Ireland's sectarian conflict formally ended.

KIRA KAY: It's a compelling sight: the parades that wind their way down the Shankill Road in the heart of Belfast's Protestant community.

This parade is one of the first of the so-called marching season, when during the summer months, Protestant Northern Ireland residents loyal to the United Kingdom commemorate a series of historic moments. The largest takes place tomorrow, July 12, honoring Protestant King William's victory over his Catholic rival in 1690.
