Excerpt from Ireland's Case for Freedom
Ireland is a Nation not merely for the reason, which in the case of other countries has been taken as sufficient, that she has claimed at all times and still claims to be a nation, but also because, even though no claim were put forward on her behalf, history shows her to be a dis tinct nation from remotely ancient times.
For over a thousand years Ireland possessed and fully exercised Sovereign Independence, and was recognized through Europe as a distinct Sovereign State.
The usurpation of the foreigner has always been disputed and resisted by the mass of the Irish people.
At various times since the coming of the English the Irish Nation has exercised its sovereign rights as opportunity offered.
The hope of recovering its full and permanent sovereignty has always been in the breasts of the Irish people, and has been the inspira tion and the mainspring of their political activities, abroad as well as at home.
English statecraft has long and persistently striven in vain to force the Irish people to abandon hope. The English policy of repression, spiritually and materially, has never been at rest from the first intrusion of English power until the present day.
