    I can't say I agree with everything he did and some of his actions. But no one should die the way he did. A very intelligent man. if he would have lived he would of been a great leader and a better leader than any of the current republican leaders.

    :shamrock:RIP

    RIP :shamrock:. Mike, I think ABU is an act of solidarity for the Palestinian Ayman Abu Daoud, held without trial in Israel, who is currently on hunger strike.

    Not sure about that I think a literal translation would for "abu" would be forever.

    Literally Abú means forever and it is an Irish word (Gaeilge), therefore, "Ireland Abú" would literally mean "Ireland forever".
