Breen programme was interesting. Civil War was the start of Breens journey on the politics-only route.

TG4 is the jewel in the Crown of Irish TV. AFAIK, their financial structure is separate from the gutless.traitorous RTE, who despise all things Irish.
Not surprisng when their Boss is an English woman and the head of News and Current affairs John Williams is also an Englishman with feminine inclinations.

From an Irish Freedeem point of View it was a Great Operation. Unfortunately some Irish Freedom Fighters were killed and injured otherwise it was a Great Operation !

I suppose it would have been better if more of the enemy had been killed.
