Been thinking about the massive number of "big house" burnings in the #CivilWar since the programme #TheIrishCivilWar, including the darling #MauriceMoore's gaff, and it strikes me that if the #FreeState had the balls to face down #Churchill, #Wilson, #LloydGeorge et al and #negotiate with the #republicans, it is likely that none of these houses would have been burned; in effect, the #RightWing state caused their burnings

Surprising that #TheIrishCivilWar didn't mention that #OrielHouse continued to kidnap and kill people after the end of the Civil War
