JULY 27, 1976 – John Lennon got his green card that would allow him to settle in the USA after a long drawn out court battle. On March 23, 1973, Lennon was ordered to leave the US within 60 days by the immigration authorities, but instead he began what turned into a protracted legal fight
Lennon supported various left wing causes; He was anti-Vietnam War, pro John Sinclair. When asked about the Bloody Sunday massacre he said that given the choice between the British Army and the IRA he would side with the IRA. It should be noted, however, that Ono specifically denied that Lennon gave financial aid to the IRA when a former member of M15 suggested it.
