		<description>This business of ancient black africans coloizing Ireland is a propagandised lie with no basis in fact, forever pushed by multiculturalists to justify any homogenous culture to accept alien cultures and cross breeding. Inteligent educated readers demand hard verifiable facts to substantiate all of these types of claims. We also demand to know the qualifactions of the individuals responsible for making such claims as well. Since this claim has not been substantiated it is obviously invalid, hense the conclusion is invlid as well.</description>

		<description>I've been reading comments on this article for a year, and they get more and more ridiculous all the time.

Black racists say that Black people are the real heralds of civilization, and Whites are redneck barbarians.

White racists say that White people are the architects of the universe, and that Blacks are backwards spear-chuckers.


The truth of the matter is that every race in the world (and there are seven major ones, go look it up) has contributed something good to humanity. Racism is a sure fire way to keep everyone ignorant.


Nation of Islamers and Ku Klux Klan members can both go die in a fire. This is about unity, not division.

I myself am Scottish on my dad's side and Irish/Welsh/Native American on my mom's side. Most Scots that I've seen before have had either ginger features or darker tones and complexions, myself included. North African tribes were the first to colonize Britain and Ireland, and their genetic footprints still stand. In fact, according to genetic research, most of Scotland is still of Pictish descent, and the Picts were likely Afro-Asiatic!

Look at people like George Clooney, Colin Farrell, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Gerard Butler, and other Celtic actors. They have darker features and don't look Aryan at all. One day, the racist Nazi and Klan fuckers will have to acknowledge that Celts have African, Medeterranian, and yes, even SEMITIC genetic contributions.

You can flame me all you want - I don't care.</description>

		<description>After reading most of the above views and opinions, it concerns and saddens me that a debate about 'Irish genetic origin' can be reduced to nothing more than a argument on race, black against white and vice versa! I speak as an Irishman who to look at me, would not look out of place walking around the streets of Cordoba, Andulucia, for example. A city enriched in a long history of a multi-culturalism and ethnicity, including the Moors of North Africa, Muslims and Jews from the Middle-East and indeed the native Southern Europeans. 

The simple fact of the matter is people have been migrating between continents for centuries, therefore it seems logical to conclude that we are all a vast array of many gene types, from many different locations. 

It has been passed down by word of mouth on my Mothers' side of the family that we are of Spanish origin somewhere along the line and by word of mouth on my fathers' side that we are direct descendents of King Niall of th nine hostages, (as are 3 million other males in Europe and North America!) Digressing my point is, if my Mothers family are originally Spanish, they may before then of been Moorish and/or Middle-Eastern Muslims or Jews for that matter. 
Therefore in conclusion we are probably all related somewhere along the line and if that is so we should treat eachother accordingly!

One Love! Peace!...Niall the Moor? (Probably!?)</description>

		<description>What an interesting thread this has become!  Jahdey - congratulations on your site - and this string in particular - it provides much much food for thought.

In reading this over the past few years, its sad to see how many (but not all!) posters align themselves with those artificial labels of 'black' and 'white'.  We - 'WE' as a 'people' are so much more than those.  These labels date back to slavery in the US; before then, people were labeled by their cultures.  We are many, derived from few.  Read Shakespeare - a Moor was a Moor, not black, not African.... Noble Drew Ali said we are different cultures...not skins.

If you MUST draw a line, draw it between male and female worship.  The modern 'Europe' (or EU or whatever its called these days) was/is patrilineal...daddy rules!  The older 'european' cultures were matrilineal, as was Africa (until recently) and those patrilineal cultures moved from the north and invaded (infected) those to the east and south.  And west, counting the US.  Where until then, life was matrilineal.  And the havoc that ensued.....people - question everything they tell you!</description>

		<description>CAN I JUS JUMP IN A SAY .........................
Daymn this is a long history debate, I love SIMPLE. Simple truth is that The Moroccan Empire, in the days of which we speak, was heavily populated by Melanin rich Africans, im so sorry but the period in history we commonly refer to (711- 1400's) was a period of expansion up until this time Africans  breeding europeans was not common practice and we all agree that Africa was dominated by dark skinned people, right? So then Morocco was and remains part of Africa. Ok, now I want you to close your eyes and go way back, leave your mind for a moment and travel back in your Soul 1300 years, do you see mixed classic Berber shade Moors or Africans? Remember we are talking before political &#38; phenotypical manipulation.  Probably not if your honest with the Soul within. Ok now that that is overstood. Know that Irish have names that are similar or rather the same as Muslim names. Idris is a common Irish name. In Gaelic Mac means Son of, this custom of naming children as Son of parallels Islamic culture, gaelic calligraphy is almost identical to Islamic calligraphy.
The Moors became known as blacks and their Sons became the Irish. The Irish are hated as much as blacks by the British because of their history, which led them to flee to America seeking refuge with the Moors who at the time had a stronghold in, yes you guessed it AMERICA. Hence the American accent being the cousin of Ireland. Lets go back now to the Witch hunts and the Witch burnings 1450-1700's,  isn't the timing interesting was that not when the Moors supposedly left Spain? Okay where did the witches learn craft? At this point I must say for those born from a fair skinned maiden please do not let this become an ego thing and for poor Svartgoth
please overstand that if you go back 6000 years pale skin was trace, so all genetics come from that which was originally here. 
Back to the story. One of the most known Satanists named Madam Helena Blavatski studied craft under Suffis in Egypt Suffi's are the mystic muslims who know the science and natural laws of life, metaphysics this is what the Moors practiced.Hmmm the witches symbol star and crescent moon strangely follows the  Islamic Symbol which when the Moors ruled  was utilized as what I was Astrology. Yes expectantly black people are claiming everything today but it is actually true. The further back you go the blacker it gets until  white is no longer in site. I could go on and on, the evidence is overwhelming but if ones Soul is not ready to let the impartial truth seep in then that person is not worthy of such jewels, on the other hand one can find this information by searching route words and meanings. This is not supposed to be a racial comment because I am not black</description>

		<description>Have you such little culture that you need to lie and steal from white culture to establish your own? I personally find that much more offensive and insensitive than white people pointing out simple facts about your race. These honest whites have truth and logic on their side, the best you can do is call them fags even though they're against homosexuality.....</description>
