Refuse entry to all west of Ireland campsites to all Germans - lets see how long they survive without their yearly trip to Doolan.

The feckers bring most of their own food and drink with them as well so the local economy will barely notice.

Give it another 6 months and Australia will be ours. The population must be at least 50% Irish by now. We can just drop them in camps in the desert.

Naval blockade, me bum!

What we have to do is put a blockade on Enda giving our money to the Germans in the first place.

errrr, if youre blockading germany on home soil then the Luftwaffe comes into the equation too which have :
35,559 personnel, 427 aircraft

vs .
the 8 piddly little Irish ships?

Hang on, your forgetting the 4 batteries of the Air Defence Regiment who will come into play surely. Better lube up the Bofors.

You might just find a few (around 60 million) allies on the island to the east. They have a few boats as well.

I would LOVE to see that happen, purely to piss off all the Sinn Fein anti-Europe trolls.

"Ok lads, we're gonna invade Germany!", cue tremendous applause, "But... eh, we're gettign help from England to do it"

Enda, Baldy & Co. have already started to infiltrate the enemy in advance. We have sent Kevin Cardiff over as chief sabotage agent. I'll give him 6 months max to bring the Euro and the Germans to their knees.

We can easily bankrupt Germany by sending the boys over to tarmac all their driveways.

I've seen the two opposing forces together. Salthill airshow, one of our glorious warships, anchored in the bay...

...German Tornado jet would turn it into a very nice reef for local divers

When do we set sail?

Aah, the old Baltic tea party trick.

Seriously though, dumping beer in the sea is going a bit far isn't it?

The Germans are trying to take our sovereignty and force us into a fiscal union where we would be no more than a mere province. I think this is intolerable, and think we should play hardball. Ireland is an Island, and as such we are a naval power and alot more prepared for a naval war than Germany. Accordingly, I hereby call on Enda Kenny to order the Irish Navy and Air Corps to impose a naval blockade on Germany and her ports, until the Germans back down and agree to write off all our debts and pay reparations.

I have just shown this to a roomful of Germans. Lets just say the old stereotype of Germans being unable to laugh is now dead.

Poccington · 14-12-2011 01:02AM

All I ask is that you please don't ask the Army to help enforce the blockade.

I can't swim.

Coriolanus · 14-12-2011 01:16AM

Who do we need to talk to in Army HQ about procurement?

Given your post a more local flavor. on the beer note sacrifices must be made.

Well you better learn. The Navy will need a Marine Corps type of unit to repel German boarders, so we will have to convert part of the Army into Marines. That way you too can play your part in restoring our international reputation. We can also use you for Commano raids, for instance we could send a squad to Berlin to pave the way for a landing of our ground forces once we have broken the German economy with the blockade.

Isn't that just the nickname of an American football team? Or else it refers to fighting for hundreds of years and not really achieving much. Then pissing away what little was achieved. Not really a phrase to be regarded well.

I say we need a new phrase: The Irish Ninja Pirates! Nobody f*cks with ninjas except pirates. And nobody f*cks with pirates except ninjas. So who's going to **** with ninja pirates? No one, that's who!

Pirate ninjas?

Should we put a naval blockade on Germany?
