Irish Americans have left their mark and advanced the best interests of America. We in America are drawn to Ireland by our personal histories. as well as by Irelands traditions. traditions which have endeared that land to many of our friends and neighbors. We are also drawn to Ireland by another historythe history of a small island which has endured waves of feudal wars and foreign conquests. and centuries of oppression. economic depression. and mass emigration. It is a sad and unrelenting history. marked by vile discrimination and violent uprisings. Irelands centuries of exploitation and sacrifice have come down to this: a conflict concentrated in the six counties of Northern Ireland. 14 years of recurring violence. thousands of lost lives and livelihoods. and for many who live in Northern Irelands most devastated communities. .no end in sight.
