The `Black and Tan' force was created by the British imperialists to suppress the Irish revolutionaries in the early twenties. "The political significance of this Black-and-Tan force -- ... which had exactly the same social composition as that of the S.A. and the S.S. force of Nazi-terrorism, and that of Mussolini's fascisti -- was that, for diplomatic reasons, Lloyd George and his counter-revolutionary backers found it imperative to pretend that nothing was called for in Ireland beyond `police measures'.... The Black-and-Tans were deliberately a fascist device -- which Mussolini, Hitler and others copied....Murder, arson, torture of prisoners, rape and the systematic beatings-up and looting of whole areas developed into a routine of monotonous horror" (T.A. Jackson, Ireland Her Own, ed. with an introduction by C. Desmond Greaves, London, 1985, pp.414-5).
