For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it.

However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8My best wishes go to Majid and the other victims of the Ahmadinejad dictatorship, I will try calling the Iranian embassy in Dublin to raise his case and register my protest.
I was also disgusted to see the thuggish behaviour of the Iranian Foreign Minister's (Mr. Mottaki) bodyguards in Dublin this evening when peaceful protesters were violently assaulted by these thugs (one protester was thrown down a stairway). This mouthpiece of the Islamist regime was speaking at the Institute of European Affairs in North Gt George's St. and thankfully a substantial number of protestors turned out to confront him.
Of course, since it wasn't the Israeli FM there wasn't the usual horde of Irish leftist protesters screaming abuse - funny that!
Thats interesting.This story does not surprise.It is almost forty years since I visited Iran and it has experienced much brutality,but I did think Ahmadinejad had at least a tenuous mandate,certainly one that could be interpreted as dubious,and I think the situation with regard to his personal dictatorial monopoly of power is not as secure as you imply. There is coninuing repression in Iran,on many fronts. Any country still allowing the death penalty has some considerable distance to travel,but Iran is not unique on that front.I'm not sure I understand the remarks regarding Israel.I fail to see your connection A. Are you a supporter of Israeli brutality, or do you not think the mothers in Gaza mourn for their children with the same pain as Majid's?
Or for that matter the mothers of Israeli kids caught up in the bullheaded stupidity of pre-human ignorance? And why was the Institute of Eiuropean Affairs hosting this man if he is as dispicable as you paint?
that the remarks about Israel were obvious.
Israeli brutality = Irish left whips up frenzy of protest
Iranian or (name country here) brutality = silence and shrugs from Irish left.
Why?
Only the Irish left can answer that.
So I can take it as a given then that you lads have your frenzies equally whipped up about 'Israeli brutality'.
Oh, one small question, does that mean that ye stand for the Irish right?
Ignore the topic, attack the writers(s).
Is the topic not government brutality?I'm just curious as to the discriminatory approaches (also on the topic) of certain posters to their favourite hate regimes.I dont do attack.I do lance bullshit, and hope if I produce any inadvertantly it will be exposed(not least to myself)and I do ask for elucidation of unclear points. Is that not kosher?Shalom.
I don't wish to ignore the fact that Palestinians are suffering in Gaza but I'm drawing attention to the fact that some posters on this site seem to have an obsession with vilifying Israel and frequently cite what they see as human rights abuses in Gaza.
However, the same people seem to have no interest in the gross human rights abuses in countries like Burma, N. Korea, Tibet or Iran or at least they never post their comments on this site as they constantly do about Israel. One might draw the conclusion that their commitment to human rights only stretches so far as Israel or Jews can be held up as the offenders and perpetrators of crimes.
The argument can easily be made that this obsessive focus on Israel/Palestine can be linked to an underlying anti-semitism in a country that refused to take in any Jewish refugees during the 1930s or WW2 but gave refuge to Nazis and their collaborators like Otto Skorzeny, Andrija Artukovic or Albert Folens in the years after the war.
When you phrase it like that. I have been trying to balance it a little myself.But there are also a lot of people who are simplifying it from the other side,many in outright denial of the accumulating evidence against Israel,which not least is exposing innocent Israelis to the vitriol you rightly condemn.Makes the local recent collisions up North seem to have a little relevance would you think?And Israel is a pretty blatant example of the general paradigm of bullying that the international power games produce at the expense of the powerless.Makes it easy to scapegoat,and Netanyahu and Co are delivering it into their hands.And our Minister,Michael Martin, by his inaction in reference to intrusions into our national pasport rights is collaborating in the stupidity.Same idle bystanding that represented Dublin's stance down through the years when there was an open door of international good will for the development of relations on this island that was left untapped till Albert got off his arse.Correct me if I misread.
