@@RipperBravo This morning I found the Chiffon Project by Peter Taylor on Audio to listen to while walking my dog. Great. It was the one and only Peter Taylor book on Audible, but I live in the States and It wasn’t allowed in my country.😡
@@RipperBravo I’m sure I can find it on Goodreads or Thriftbooks, but I really wanted Audible so I could listen while doing something else. Guess I’m out of luck on that!
@@ATLmodK Tbh the books were released in 1997 so it’s doubtful they’ve been narrated. There is of course the programs of the same name which are equally interesting.
Peter Taylor one of the best journalists to cover the troubles in Northern Ireland😮 Peter Taylor is legitimate in his approach to covering the conflict😊
I appreciate the work of uploading amazing works of journalism and documenting history. Thank you, ATL, for making this Dutch American more informed and aware of the history, ongoing impact, cultures, viewpoints and experiences of all citizens of Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland (loyalists and republicans both).
As always, another really interesting documentary. So far I read a few books written by Peter Taylor. His documentaries are great as well. Thanks for sharing. Keep it up. ☮✌
@Freddygotfingered84 agreed but the problem was the laws only applied to some and the state was involved in alot of these murders to some extent, so in a way some groups were above the law and operated with impunity.
@liamg1706 I know mate true, was horrendous conflict. Wouldn't call it a war like as no artillery/ships/fighter jets used but yea it was brutal. Just glad the children now a days never lived through it..
@Freddygotfingered84 yes he seems good non-biased just asks questions he knows people watching would be asking and accepts different points of view. Refreshing.
@koeman1873 Loyalists started the conflict their only aim was hatred, discrimination ,murder and mahem. At the start of the conflict all republicans wanted was civil rights and defence in their areas against Loyalist murder mobs but in the end IRA fought the British to stale mate , a few hundred men against British army, RUC, Loyalist death squads , SAS ,mi5 .. and all in collusion together. And they were undefeated even if they didn't achieve every goal. The British themselves admitted the IRA could not be defeated so what's there to be embarrassed about. Inflicted nearly 4 times as much enemy casualties than they lost.
@@liamg1706 Grow up, the so called ira were defeated, their goal of a united ireland and the removal of the British from ireland failed, their politicans now help rule part of the UK, what a victory. True republicans are turning in their graves the way things ended up.
@koeman1873 the IRA took on of most formidable armys in the world and then some.. and couldnt be defeated.. what did loyalists do? target and murder random unarmed civilians. 90 % of their victims were innocent civilians. Maybe you should re-evaluate who should be embarrassed.
@koeman1873 how were they defeated? Not achieving all their aims isn't defeat you idiot. They fought to British into talks. How does it feel to be ruled by them now?
Hi, I’m the comment mgr for ATL. This should be up tomorrow and for a few days after at least biut If you cannot find it, ATL has a channel on Patreon and on Rumble.
@@arronblack67 as Shakespeare wrote, "a pox on both their houses". I have no truck with PIRA either. Both terror groups populated with shed loads of sociopaths.
Unless you lived through these era you have no concept of what it was like. I grew up with the guns and bombs it became almost normal. The British putting the paras on the streets was the worst mistake the British government ever made or so I thought. Maggie then deployed the SAS. Remarkably times, I’m happy there is now peace, but the anger still boils under the surface.
Why did not British organise UN peacekeepers instead of using its own army, in 1970 it was I contend best for the UK to start to recede out of Ireland and in a fair, workable, appropriate way hand back govt to the Irish.
James 6th of Scotland when he took the English Crown in 1603 he was a Scot for sure as was his son Charles 1st also born in Scotland James wanted to divide and rule which is what the British Empire has been doing ever since! King James sent Scottish Presbyterian planters to Ulster along with Anglican planters from England 😂😂😂😂😂
A tragic day for democracy unarmed civilians shot dead.For every act of violence there was a response and reprisal it’s a real tragedy when political failure leads to armed conflict.At 60 I realise how short life really is to short for death and destruction.
3:10 that's it in a nut shell that man says they are fighting for what they have owned for hundreds of years 😂😂😂 you serious yous have owned nothing the British took it simple as that
Isn’t this comment made by the descendant of a settler who was given “all he owns” by the British and most likely self identifies as British? If he had been Irish, the British would have taken away his land 3-400 years ago and given it to aa settler.
We are truly fortunate to have the ability to watch these magnificent documentaries. ❤ Thank You Peter Taylor, and Thank You " A Troubled Land"! 🪷🌾🕊🇵🇸 😅 Despite all nostilgia for the past, NOW, 2024 is a wonderful time to be alive! ☘️🇮🇪🐟👍🤔
Ulster is a Province of Ireland and has 9 counties. Northern Ireland has 6 counties the other 3 are Monaghan, Donegal and Cavan are in the ROI. Therefore Ulster is NOT British
@@gerrybyrne5636yeah im from liverpool england and proud and even i agree brtain is the island on the right, ireland is the island on the left, sending armed soldiers over the water to patrol the streets however the british goverment dressed it up was never peacekeeping it was subtly taking the land that wasnt thiers
