Not to be outdone in anti-Israel animus, the Taoiseach of Ireland, Simon Harris, has in a phone call to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denounced what he described as the “firing on UNIFIL” as “completely unacceptable.” He also has raised his “serious concern” with Israel’s President Isaac Herzog after Israeli forces fired [sic] on UN […]
Ireland: Muslim teen who stabbed Army chaplain ‘holds a radical Islamist mindset’
Here yet again it must be asked: what efforts are Irish authorities making to ensure that no one in Ireland “holds a radical Islamist mindset”? Why, none. None at all. Like authorities all over the West, they’re just complacently expecting mosques and other Islamic institutions to teach moderation and loyalty to the secular state. On […]
Ireland: Muslim teen who stabbed priest was known to police for reposting jihad propaganda
Gardaí would apparently have us believe that this young Muslim was raised to be a good “moderate,” rejecting “extremism,” until he encountered “radicals” online who “brainwashed” him. Why wasn’t the “moderate” Islam he supposedly learned at the local mosque sufficient to withstand the blandishments of the sinister online hijackers of Islam? I doubt Irish authorities […]
Ireland: Muslim teen who stabbed Army chaplain was shouting about Irish military action against jihadis in Mali
The reticence about the fact that this young man was a jihadi continues. The establishment media all over the West thinks that it is of cardinal importance to ensure that no one think ill of Islam of jihad, and so citizens have to read tea leaves in order to determine what is going on. An […]
Ireland: Muslim teen who was ‘radicalized online’ stabs chaplain at army barracks
The Irish Times is the only source I saw that gives any details at all about the possible motive of the attacker. The details are these: 1. It’s a “suspected terrorist incident.” 2. The attacker was “radicalised online.” This is something that is frequently stated of Islamic jihad terrorists, with the unspoken corollary being that […]
Irish Lunatic Clare Daly Loses Her MEP Race
It’s a good gig, being a Member of the European Parliament (MEP). The salary and benefits are handsome, far more than most of its members could earn as minor politicians at home. It’s been just the ticket for far-left Clare Daly, the Irishwoman MEP who, while she defends Communist China and Putin, and attacks capitalism, […]
Ireland: ‘Palestine’s’ ambassador looks forward to seeing her flag flying over Parliament
The Palestinian ambassador to Ireland, Jilan Wahba Abdalmajid, called Israel “vicious” (not Hamas, mind you), and she is “looking forward” to seeing the Palestinian flag “flying on Leinster House.” There are many in Ireland who do not share her enthusiasm. Earlier this month, thousands of demonstrators turned out in Dublin to protest their country’s invasion […]
Israel recalls ambassadors from Ireland and Norway after they recognize ‘State of Palestine’
I have instructed the immediate recall of Israel’s ambassadors to Ireland and Norway for consultations in light of these countries’ decisions to recognize a Palestinian state. I’m sending a clear and unequivocal message to Ireland and Norway: Israel will not remain silent in the… — ישראל כ”ץ Israel Katz (@Israel_katz) May 22, 2024 This makes […]
Ireland, Spain, and Norway Reward Hamas Terrorism
The three most anti-Israel countries in Europe — Ireland, Spain, and Norway — that have announced their recognition of the “State of Palestine” have no idea what territories this “state” will contain, nor whether it will be demilitarized, nor what will be its demographic composition. Will the 500,000 Israelis in the West Bank be allowed […]
The Three Amigos of Ireland, Norway, and Spain Have Just Covered Themselves in Vainglory
Brendan O’Neill, whose savage indignation is always a pleasure to read, tells us what he really thinks of the three amigos — the Prime Ministers of Spain, Ireland, and Norway — who have just covered themselves in vainglory by recognizing the “State of Palestine.” More on his evisceration of the three can be found here: […]
