Finucane's father had fought against the British alongside Eamon DeValera, in 1916.

In 1940 his son Brendan flew in the Battle of Britain and defended Britain against invasion.

He was shot down 1942 - fighting to free Europe.

Both fought for freedom.

Street graffiti portrait of Samuel Becket's face. It's weathered and a little distressed looking which suits his craggy appearance.

Godot is not coming...

Samuel Beckett was awarded the Croix de Guerre for his resistance to the Nazis. Although the U.S. and its Allies liberated France in 1945, now the U.S. is distanced from its Allies and under siege from within.

The resistance is excellent - vote them all out.
