Name: Captain James Kelly Military Intelligence Reports

Subtitle: August 1969 - January 1970

Author: Kelly, Captain James

Editor: Clifford, Angela

Category:

Publisher: A Belfast Magazine

Published: 2024

ISBN: 978-1-874157-25-0

Contents: The documents reproduced here are Intelligence Reports, submitted to his Army superiors, and therefore to the Government, by Captain James Kelly of Military Intelligence. They were written in the course of his duties in 1969-70, when he was deployed in liaison work with Northern Nationalists. They provide an insider's view of events during the volatile years, when social unrest made it clear that the governing arrangements made by Westminster were not fit for purpose. Majority rule in a nationally-divided society had run into a dead end. Through his Northern connections the Captain was able to help to provide analysis and keep Government informed about the Northern Ireland scene when Catholic areas came under attack at a time of social volatility in 1969-1970. These Reports show that the Captain was no maverick, surreptitiously pursuing a republican agenda against the thrust of Government policy, but a diligent Army Officer carrying out duties with the full authority of his superiors. When the Government changed track, the Reports, it decided to destroy the record, but these Reports were fortuitously rescued, as a result of a tip-off that they were about to be trashed. They appear here in print for the first time.

Name: Casement: Decoding False History

Subtitle: Recent Research by Paul R. Hyde

Author: Hyde, Paul

Editor:

Category:

Publisher: Aubane Historical Society

Published: 2021

ISBN: 978 1 903497 95 1

Contents: The chapters published here are the result of original research undertaken since publication of Anatomy of a lie by Paul R. Hyde in 2019. These chapters represent a further penetration into the century-long ‘Black Diaries’ controversy. Here readers can see for the first time the secret memo of 1914 which gave birth to the later scandal. Here Casement’s defence counsel, Serjeant Sullivan, is revealed as playing a major role in the deception. For the first time the seven conflicting versions of the diaries’ provenance are analysed with devastating conclusions. And here the astonishing revelations of an ex-naval officer, Commander Clipperton – suppressed by all biographers – can be seen for the first time. Published in 1973, Brian Inglis’ biography provided a new and convincing template for the interpretation of the Casement controversy; its consequences still resonate today. The Inglis template was convincing, detailed, clever and false. Without any source notes, it remains unsurpassed for the subtlety of its deceptions, rapidly becoming the standard biography which has conditioned the understanding of later generations of trusting readers and historians. But Inglis spun a web of deception exploiting logical fallacies, selective framing, omission, altered documents, innuendo, false attribution – all the sins of intellectual dishonesty. Anatomy of a lie exposed many of his sins for the first time; this volume reveals even more crimes against truth. FOREWORD by ANGUS MITCHELL

Name: Conversations With Carlyle

Subtitle: Reprint Of The 1892 Classic

Author: Duffy, Charles Gavan

Editor: Clifford, Brendan

Category: Irish Collection

Publisher: Athol Books

Published: 2006

ISBN: 0 85034 114 0

Contents: That Gavan Duffy's Conversations With Carlyle has been out of print since its first edition in 1892 shows how modern Ireland is losing touch with its political origins. In this book it is reproduced in full, along with related texts. There is a substantial extract from Carlyle's Irish Journey, as well as shorter excerpts from his Sartor Resartus, Past & Present and Chartism.
Thomas Carlyle is now much forgotten, but his work went into the making of England. What is not widely appreciated is that his condemnation of Manchester capitalism struck a chord in mid-nineteenth century Ireland. The backdrop to Carlyle's association with Young Ireland and to his journeys in Ireland was the Great Famine of 1847, itself an indictment of laissez-faire. Young Ireland found in Carlyle's demands for political intervention in the production process an inspiration for remedying the ills of Ireland.
Brendan Clifford's introduction, Stray Thoughts About Young Ireland, considers the dynamics of the strange relationship between Irish revolutionaries and the English imperialist prophet, in the context of the views of Professor Maurice O'Connell, Conor Cruise O'Brien and Professor Roy Foster.

Extracts: From the beginning of Brendan Clifford's introduction Stray Thoughts On Young Ireland.

Name: Coolacrease

Subtitle: The true story of the Pearson executions:—an incident in the Irish War of Independence

Author: Heaney, Paddy, Muldowney, Pat, O'Connor, Philip

Editor:

Category: Irish Collection

Publisher: Aubane Historical Society

Published: 2008

ISBN: 978-1-903497-48-7

Contents: COOLACREASE: A Shocking Story

At the end of the Irish War of Independence, two brothers were shot in Coolacrease, Co. Offaly, and their house was burned.

The people who carried out the shootings were not Irish rebels or uninvolved civilians. They were loyalist Protestants who had chosen to take up arms against the forces of the democratically elected Irish government. The IRA command ordered their execution.

So what is shocking about the deaths of these two men, in comparison with the hundreds of other deaths in the war waged by the British Imperial Government against the Irish democracy?

These events were practically unkown until 2007 when the Irish national broadcasting agency RTE produced a television documentary which portrayed the executions of the Pearson brothers as a sectarian anti-Protestant atrocity in furtherance of a land grab, as part of an ethnic cleansing drive by the Irish Republican movement against an ethnic minority in Ireland.

RTE claimed that their case was based on official evidence in documents of the Irish Land Commission.

…and now comes the really shocking part

RTE could not produce the documents they claimed proved their case, and the Land Commission denies that the programme ever examined the records of the division of the Pearson farm. The case presented by RTE is nothing but spurious atrocity propaganda, a travesty of what really happened.

The documentary record is presented in this book, which tells the true story of these tragic events.

This is a shocking story of low standards and cheap propaganda.
