Hey the English invaders won—they murdered and starved enough Irish to conquer and claim a big chunk of Ireland to the North.
That's history—still there is no reason for the Orange Catholic-haters, Catholics who still live on THEIR land if under English occupation, to rub their noses in it every July.
It would be like the US Calvary parading and celebrating every year on an Indian reservation their “victory” at Wounded Knee.

Theyd still be druids if not for Henry II of England. The Irish didnt come out of the box Catholic. Supporting the IRA is supporting Marxism, on top of that.
Besides, as I said, theyre already reunited under the aegis of the EUIrish, English, Scottish, Welsh, Cornish, Manx and whatever other distinct ethnicities, all under one European overarching government with European law supreme over all of them. The Republic of Ireland had her independence for a mere twenty-four years, until de Valera signed it away via Irelands Third Amendment in 1972 and they joined what is now called the EU.
