Blasco said such a thing would never be allowed on land, and watery graves such as the Titanic site should be treated the same as gravesites on land. He likened the American company’s actions to driving a truck into a cemetery, taking things from gravesites and selling them.... |

| irishtimes.com | PROTESTANTS ON TOP: 'TITANIC' WAS A MICROCOSM OF ULSTER SOCIETY Designed and built by unionist Freemasons at exactly the moment they were plotting partition, the ship contained many coded references to their secret political goal.

The decision to include lifeboats for only two-thirds of the people on board reflected the idea of Northern Ireland itself as a lifeboat for only two-thirds of the people on board. But there were life-vests for everyone, which frankly was more than some of them deserved.... |
