'Curse of Tara’ to spread to Europe

Dear sir - In January 2009, I warned of how the 'curse of Tara' would befall Ireland because of the desecration of our heritage and sacred sites at Tara following the construction of the M3 motorway. I wrote that this would be particularly in evidence in the second part of 2010 once the motorway had opened. Few remain sceptic now after last year's tumultuous events but if you are one of them, what do you imagine the curse of Tara would look like, if it was real? Would it look something like this? An apocalyptic economic meltdown resulting in thousands unemployed, mass emigration, austerity budgets, tax hikes, cuts to social welfare and minimum wage, basic services struggling to be maintained, one in eight in mortgage arrears and that being just the tip of the iceberg. The construction and business sectors were decimated, the tourism industry on its knees and all sectors praying for divine intervention. The arrival of the IMF meant loss of national sovergnity and pride and guarantees the spectacular downfall of the FF/Green government who will never again see power on this island for their betrayal of Tara. The wrath of mother nature was unleashed too giving us the coldest temperatures since records began. The River Boyne froze over for the first time in living memory, airports closed and traffic came to a standstill, whole cities were snowbound as Arctic weather heaved our shores. The weather impacted businesses even further, inflicting more economic ruin the extent of which can still be only guessed at. Frozen and leaking pipes resulted in many counties going without running water, in a country where water is plentiful, for now. Flooding only added to the woes while our road network crumbled into a pothole ridden trek of misery for motorists and pedestrians alike. Against this background the skies were particularly active with eclipses, meteor showers, even hits and storms the likes of which had never been seen before. The skies became bizarrely illuminated with lightning displays of every colour and not a drop of rain. Portents such as these and the felling of the ancient tree at Ardbraccan by lightning left Meath in no doubt that Mother Nature had raised her hand. If, as it is believed, the M3 was ordered from Brussels, then the EU will fall just like any other nation, group or race who dared to stand against Tara. This is what has always happened. Indeed it is estimated that the contagion from Ireland will spread resulting in the fall of the EU and its possible restructure by 2013. You couldn't make it up. Yours, Carmel Diviney, Swords, Co Dublin.
