It seems that Andrei goes weak at the knees at the thought of an orange willy...

Hardly.
Though I think the Orange Order have every right to celebrate their history and shouldn't be prevented walking down a public street because it's residents don't like the history of the battle result.

I thought you frowned on demonstrations and marches, Andrei.

This is a parade celebration not a demo.

looks like a riot not a celebration

linguistics have failed one such as you are

the orange crew are another freemasonic cult

so be it

It's a march to make a point. Don't dress it up, you know why they do it.

Interesting how Christians acting like this, inspired by their differing interpretations of their version of their shared religion go unremarked upon by the many religious commentators here. Shocked

So true

Even in Australia we had a similar (although fortunately less violent) divide between Catholics v Protestants. It used to be a big issue.

It faded with the arrival of Multiculturalism. The Islamophobia will fade as well, as Muslims become more integrated in widestream society. We are seeing the last dying screams of the Islamophobes before they realise they need to focus their efforts on different, newer targets. Roll Eyes

They said it about the Catholics, the Jews, the Seven Day Adventists, the Mormons, the Germans, the Italians, the Greeks, the Jugoslavs, etc., etc. I don't doubt some black people camped on the shores of Botany Bay said it about the English when they arrived. Roll Eyes

The reality is, we are all Australians now. You appear unable to learn from history and are doomed to repeat the mistakes by repeating the hatred and intolerance, Gnads. Roll Eyes

Is there any way we can blame the Muslims for this?

I got it. The Irish are fighting each other because the Muslims did not build a mosque there that both sides could focus their hate on.

Orangemen are Irish Muslims in disguise....

Footnote:- My family are Orange and Green - neither side would talk to the other and would literally cross over the street rather than meet. That's in the past and none of us of this generation give a rat's about it.

An clansman traveled to Ireland and went to a village below the castle on the hill and asked the local butcher about his clansman living up there... the butcher replied:-

"If you want to discuss that godless, apostate bastard - you'll have to speak to the priest!"

I like that godless, apostate bastard.. sounds good... Grin

Walk around London or just outside Gare du Nord in Paris and tell me how "integrated" they've become....
