Jump To Comment: 7 6 5 4 3 2 1It’s worth restating that the visit of a naval vessel from a member state of the Atlantic alliance or any other pact is NOT a breach of Irish neutrality except in the minds of Ed Horgan and a few others. They might wish and press for some extreme form of neutrality which would rule out even reciprocal courtesy naval visits among neighbours. But that is not the same as baldly asserting that a visit such as this is “a breach of Irish neutrality” under the present neutrality policy.
I thought the idea of neutrality was to give equal "benefit" or hospitality to either side -and credence .
Mind you those Cork dock side bulidings must have looked like old USSR style buildings to the NATO crew -how miserable they look -- they may have been tempted to shell them .
Remember Dev went to give his condolences on Hitlers death in 1945 ?
Not certain what he did when FDR or Stalin for that matter died .
Yes they did, about the only good thing that came from Germany in that era, but just because its a naval vessel does not mean its use is negative
the Nazis built motorways, what's your point?
Naval Vessels have lond been used in scientific research, British naval vessels in the 18th & 19th centurys sailed the globe and made scientific descoveries. Captain Cook for one, this vessel in the article is a naval vessel but was used in a scientific manner. Is this not a case of swords being turned into plough shares. This ship could not invade Lambay Island if it tried! I would think that Indy media would support this activity for national naval ships
Which glove would this be Poopeye?
and I'd love to know what role a ship which was launched in the 1990s could possibly have played in "Controlling Tuberculosis in Independent India 1948-78".
as for obsession with guns I think it's only right that people are concerned with things that are made in order to kill people, don't you?

Open your mind a little john. Just because its painted grey does not mean its going to invade your house. Your obsession with guns is a tad disturbing.
