  6. REASONS WHY you should join The Irish Citizen Army BECAUSE It pledges its members to work for, organise for, drill for and fight for an Independent Ireland. BECAUSE It places its reliance upon the only class that never betrayed Ireland - the Irish Working Class. BECAUSE Having a definite aim to work for there is no fear of it being paralysed in the moment of action by divisions in its Executive Body. BECAUSE It teaches that ‘the sole right of ownership of Ireland is vested in the people of Ireland, and that the full right of ownership may, and ought to be enforced by any and all means that God hath put within the power of man. BECAUSE It works in harmony with the Labour and true Nationalist Movements and thus embraces all that makes for Social Welfare and National Dignity.

  14. Arguments for & against the Treaty Northern Ireland and Its Neighbours since 1920 by S. Gillespie & G. Jones, Hodder & Stoughton,, 034062034X, p. 23 We have got peace which is what the people want. We are able to set up our own government and rule ourselves. An oath of loyalty to the King has no meaning. This is a step towards independence. We will take other steps and become fully independent. We are not in a position to start another war with Britain. • You may have peace but where is the • Republic we have fought for from 1916? • Your powers are limited while you stay • in the Empire and have the King as head of state. • We swore an oath of loyalty to the Republic • and we will not swear an oath to the King. • Britain will continue to interfere in Ireland's • affairs unless you remove her power completely. • We will still have British troops • In our country.
