And Patrick Henry Pearse's oration at the funeral of O'Donovan Rossa in 1915 was the spark that started the Easter Rising.

Getting German assistance was a sure sign of failure for the Irish. Nice thought though....

"We stand at Rossa's grave not in sadness, but in exultation of spirit... This is a place of peace sacred to the dead, where men should speak with all charity and all restraint; but I hold it a Christian thing... to hate evil, to hate untruth, to h ate oppression, and hating them to strive to overthrow them... while Ireland holds these graves, Ireland unfree, shall never be at peace."
