CONVICTED DRUG DEALER John Gilligan has dismissed an attempt on his life yesterday as a “Halloween prank” and insisted he has “no enemies”.
Gardaí in Blanchardstown are investigating the incident, which happened at the Halfway House pub on the Navan Road at around 4pm yesterday.
According to gardaí, a man in motorcycle gear entered the premises and walked around “looking for someone”.
It’s understood the man shouted “where’s Gilligan” as he rushed around the bar.
When it became clear that the criminal wan’t there, the gunman fled the scene. He was intercepted on the road by a Garda patrol car, and officers attempted to stop his motorcycle on the Ratoath Road in Finglas.
According to a garda spokesman: “The driver was seen discarding a firearm and then fleeing the scene”.
A 9mm pistol was recovered, and has been taken for forensic tests.
Questioned by RTÉ at the Four Courts in Dublin today, Gilligan played down the incident, insisting it had been a “Halloween prank too late”.
I’ve no problem with anybody and I’ve no fear of anybody. I’ve no enemies
He admitted gardaí had been in contact with him since the incident, but said he had nothing to fear. Asked again why someone might want to try and kill him he said:
I haven’t got a clue. Halloween. Kids making mistakes.
Gardaí have been interviewing witnesses and carrying out door-to-door enquiries in the area in the wake of the incident, and CCTV from the pub — a landmark on the Navan Road — is also being examined.

Gilligan was released from Portlaoise Prison on 15 October, after serving a sentence for drug trafficking offences.
The was sentenced to 28 years in prison on drug trafficking charges in 2001, but this was later reduced to 20 years on appeal. He was entitled to further time off the sentence due to remission.
The 61-year-old criminal, originally from Ballyfermot, led the gang responsible for killing journalist Veronica Guerin in 1996. He was later acquitted of the murder.
Gilligan was at the High Court today for an action challenging the sale by the Criminal Assets Bureau of his former family home and the adjacent equestrian centre in Jessbrook, Co Kildare.

If the peaceful and normal Muslims know who these radicals are, should they not, even quietly let the police know who they are?
@Tony Skillington: Gardaí. Police is in England
@Tony Skillington: Not sure what the police can do, if those individuals haven’t committed any crimes so far
@Tony Skillington: The London attackers had been reported many times. As had the Manchester and Westminster one as far as I know.
@Larissa Caroline Nikolaus: Yes. It’s increasingly clear that the “why doesn’t the community report it” excuse doesn’t cut it any more. Members of the community are reporting it, and the response is no more than “monitoring”. One of the London attackers was even in a documentary on national television entitled “Jihadist next door”, ffs.
We can reasonably debate what can then be done, but our current approach seems to be basically to do nothing.
@Tony Skillington: They do, and will continue to do so.
@Éamonn Flynn: one of the London attackers was on a Channel 4 documentary ‘Jihadi’s Next Door’.
@Cathal: are in England
Prevention is better that cure:
Stop the import , start the deport !
Ban the internet cos thats hacking people to death… what utter rubbush
@Ben McArthur: I think, what needs to be done, is to bring in some legislation that would allow law enforcement to access the social media, and maybe email accounts, of those on a terrorist watch list, to hopefully prevent an attack, not sure in how far this can be implemented though, and then you’ll need the staff to be able to actively do this.
@Tony Skillington: they have.
@Larissa Caroline Nikolaus: That’s essentially what Theresa May is suggesting. Of course it won’t stop there.
The danger here is that there are lots of noisy people suggesting that the only viable solution is mass deportation. In the absence of any other solution than “we love our Muslim friends”, that will get more and more traction. But in fact there is plenty that can be done within existing laws and without blanket bans on entire religions.
Male immigrant aged 18-40 who claims to have left family at home: barred. If you leave your family in supposed fear of their lives, you are at best worthless, and at worst a liar. Go away.
Any immigrant who refuses to disavow the inferiority of women, or of some other race, or hatred of gays, or FGM: barred.
Anyone who leaves to go to war for Isis: citizenship stripped, and barred.
Any citizen who doesn’t like our values: offered money for transportation to whichever country they think does the best job of it.
Any non-citizen who speaks publicly in favour of anti-freedom ideologies: deported and barred.
Any mosque, church, synagogue, youth club and scout hut which permits itself to be used as a platform for hate speech: closed. Every non-citizen remotely connected with it: deported and barred.
A few more steps and people will start to get the message.
@Tony Skillington: Terrorists or suspected terrorists live under the protection of the law . During the NI troubles republican terrorists where all known to the security forces . Free men to kill and murder . In 26 yrs just over 180 republican terrorists where kill by the security forces compare to the thousands of attacks carry out against the civilian population by the IRA .
@Kev Barnes: Having a bad grammar day?
@Sean O Brien: Oh,give it a rest,ya clown! Change the record,your Orange Order is showing.
@Larissa Caroline Nikolaus: They not we are protected by democracy.
@Tony Skillington: You are assuming they aren’t. It’s not like the Gardai are going to advertise it.
@Tony Skillington: same could be said of those lrish people involved in terrorist activities, of which we still have a good few
@Tony Skillington: One of the attackers were Iformed on by his neighbours, but he wasn’t seen as a high level threat.
@Sean O Brien: Playing with your toy soldiers again.
@Ben McArthur: I agree with some of your poiunts, on the whole however, you’d rather sacrifice every democratic principle, like for instance due process, to fight a small number of terrorists, the moment you sacrifice one of the democratic principles in response to an attack from terrorist s(umbags, those s(umbags have won
@Just Me: Bang Bang
@Larissa Caroline Nikolaus: It’s not the internet that’s causing radicalization , we’re on the internet talking about this , we’ll be the targets as much as the perpetrators .We shouldn’t have to give our freedoms away because of a misguided immigration policy , which allows the real danger to physically enter the country .
They don’t do so in Britain why would they do so here , the problem is the book they follow , their medieval attitude towards women and the support of the looney left etc etc
@Larissa Caroline Nikolaus: I don’t think that sacrifices any democratic principles, except the recently invented one that non-citizens somehow deserve to be treated the same as citizens. That would be a nice principle to have, but we can’t afford it.
@Ben McArthur: 100% agree.
Pray for peace…oh the irony!
@Larissa Caroline Nikolaus: incitement to hatred?
@Tony Skillington:
The problem may be in the huge numbers who are flagged as concerns at exactly the same level and then just go on to grow up instead.
Years ago the way you could tell who was really involved in the IRA was not by the ones who talked about it, but by those who didn’t. Thankfully ISIS radicalisation is not so organised and disciplined – yet…so they do tend to be a bit more obvious, but get as close as you like and it can be impossible to tell who is a harmless fanatic, and who is genuinely dangerous.
There are no limitless resources, so we have to learn how to weed out the real threats with as close to 100% reliability as we can get.
Learning how to do that is a very poor fit for the “ethos” of existing support services who only want to listen to poor little things seeking help support and wisdom, not people who might have insight to offer into how to identify and deflect future threats.
@Heroin Chic: jihadis next door documentary ,MADNESS, what more evidence did they need ,someone has some seriouse questions to answer,
@Cathal: ‘are in England.’
@Cathal: ‘are’ in England. If you will be picky at least get your basic grammar correct.
@Ben McArthur: brilliant
@Larissa Caroline Nikolaus: Perhaps a word in their ears or open a file so that the Garda do not get caught out. It’s no point saying after an evetnt – sure, everyone knew about him !
@Cathal: police is an international term buddy
Al Qadri talks a lot of sense. I hope he’ll furnish the Gardai with the names of the headbangers he suspects of extremism.
@Honeybadger197: He talks a bit sense alright. I’d say he is not popular with some of the more hard core muslims in the community. I wouldn’t be surprised if they targeted him and did him some harm.
@Honeybadger197: The core of the problem has become the inability of states to prevent these murders despite identifying in advance many of the people that later carry them out. Normal western legal systems are increasingly tying themselves in knots trying to strike a reasonable balance between prosecuting people for incitement on the one hand and allowing the rest of us to enjoy traditional civil liberties on the other. States might well decide that this cannot be sustainable and decide instead to have a ‘separate’ legal system to deal with terrorism prevention e.g. internment without trial.
@Honeybadger197: The Gardai wont do anything. The extremist version of Islam is Wahhabism. This is the version that calls for war with the West. It is also the version funded by the Saudis.
In Waterford last year there was an Islam Week to promote awareness of what Islam teaches. Some Muslim friends of mine went along to the exhibits and were disgusted to see it was all about Wahhabism. This was held in conjunction with Waterford City Council who want the money of Saudi princes, so couldn’t care less what ‘type’ of Islam it is.
Waterford Institute of Technology also makes huge money from Saudi students, and this year, even allowed them to have a Islam Awareness week, where there was little Islam to see — but burka’s, niqabs and everything else to do with Saudi Wahhabism.
These are the extremists. But we also make a hell of a lot of money from them, so cant see the Gardai or Councils doing anything about it.
In the 2007 version of God is Not Great, Christopher Hitchens wrote about ‘empty-headed multiculturalism’ that led to extremist versions of the Koran being distributed among Muslims in American jails, calling for Jihad. It’s no different here now when it comes to Wahhabism.
@Honeybadger197: the thing is we need all the help from our Muslims as this council understanding why or how youths get radicalised that’s where preventive measure lies , support for our Muslims to help us our Gardai and justice system to avoid radicalism before it even start . Medical psychiatric support to de radicalise the ones who are starting and stop the criminal adults involved Gardai intelligence and training all working together this is the moment NOW .
@Honeybadger197:
As there top man and leader
He should be making sure
this doesn’t happen otherwise
he will find out very quickly if our
Women and children are harmed he
will find out we won’t be as tolerant as the British
@Good Early:
Not a fan of Wahhabism at all but what you are talking about is not Wahhabism:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wahhabism
It is Jihadism:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jihadism
@غاي دالتون: Well, my Muslim friends said it’s Wahhabism! That, and i’ll take Christopher Hitchens word over a mad mullah any day.
@Good Early:
*helpless laughter*
Ireland has no need or room for any form mohammidism .All forms of islam is is based on war and military cocepts, just look at all the soldiers of islam line up in mosques throughout the country , foot to foot etc. It digusting
Stop importing and start deporting them
.Prevention is better than cure
Wahhabism advocates killing apostates Yes or No?
Wahhabism advocates women covering their entire bodies, or they will be subjected to violence Yes or No?
Wahhabism advocates killing or maiming gay people Yes or No?
Wahhabism advocates killing anyone who dares to question Islam, or “insulting the prophet” as they like to call it Yes or No?
Tell me, what is punishment for not believing in god or the ‘prophet’ et al?
To me, this is extremism that religious advocates act out on.
It’s great that this Imam acknowledges the issue that even the media, politicians and citizens won’t.
@Heroin Chic: not our other friend who has a son in prison in Egypt
@ktsiwot: he was only on holidays….. cough cough
@Heroin Chic: Dr Umar Al-Qadri has been warning the Coalition Government (Lab/FG) & the Gardai for a number of years but they have failed to do so. Now hopefully last Saturday’s London attack may turn things around and make the current government & Gardai think again on how to deal with our country’s security. Dr Umar Al-Qadri has already criticised the imam Hussein Halawa (father of Ibrahim the MB terrorist) for ignoring the ticking timebomb called Islamic extremism which is clearly fermenting here:
The acid test would be if Muslims are as outraged with London attach as they would be if a British newspaper published a Mohamed cartoon…When RTE or Ch4 make a comedy series called Imam Ted then all will be ok….
@John003: I would imagine they are more outraged by the former, generally speaking anyway.
@John003:
There is Muslim religious humour (albeit rather dark)
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Televangelist-Novel-Hoopoe-Fiction-ebook/dp/B01E3XWH2I/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1496770092&sr=1-1
It’s a movie too but nobody subtitled it yet…(I hope they do!)
If these problems have nothing to do with religion, then please someone explain to me… Why oh why, are only Muslims susceptible to radicalisation?
@Matty Killucan: Timothy Mc Veigh ring any bells
@Matty Killucan: What happened to ‘Kinevan’? I suspect you got banned . . .
Why, as a matter of interest, do you spend so much time trying to demonise muslims rather than attempting to have a broader debate that includes all of the factors that have been influential in the development of this conflict?
@Neil Mcdonough: What’s “kineven”? What you on about dude
@Neil Mcdonough:
Aw there you are Matty – back to spread more fear and hate. I was beginning to wonder where you had gone or what name you were using today
@Matty Killucan: Kinevan, Matty, that’s you isn’t it, not difficult to spot the MO . . .
@Matty Killucan: Go and look at the comments under a fox news or breitbart article and come back to us.
@Matty Killucan: because their belief system is still stuck in the 7th century and has yet to be reformed like the other Judeo Christian religions.
Plus Islam is just simply not like other religions it is a temptation to violence from the get go.
All you need to do is look at the two role models.
Jesus = Hippy who was crucified.
Mohammad = Conquering Warlord who spread his religion by the sword and also married a 6 year old girl name Aiysha & had sex with her when she was 9.
I prefer JC as a role model personally
@Wayne O’Fathaigh: That’s an interesting answer, but not for the reasons you think it is.
Young men can be radicalised by a number of different ideologies. But you choose to focus on one individual “constitutionalist” radical 22 years ago, rather than any of those who have committed 31,000 deadly terror attacks in the name of Islam since 9/11.
@IrishInfidel: Thanks for attempting to answer my question unlike the morons who replied with nothing but baseless accusations and a bizarre reference to a random revenge bombing in the US
@Matty Killucan: only doing my job sir
@Matty Killucan:
I don’t understand why you are asking questions like that on here anyway Matty, you have already professed yourself to be an expert on Islam have you not?
@Ben McArthur: the original quote was “why are only muslims radicalised” there are examples of people being radicalised by multiple beliefs systems and drivers
@IrishInfidel: “Jesus = Hippy who was crucified.” Erm, no, he was a, ahem, a radical preacher accused of stirring up unrest and violence . . .
@Wayne O’Fathaigh: Statistically insignificant examples.
@Matty Killucan:
Also – you seem to be inferring that Timothy McVie wasn’t radicalised which is absolute nonsense
@Neil Mcdonough:
What conflict are you talking about? The only people to attempt mass killings of innocent civilians in the UK since the 2nd W.War were your pals the PIRA, British men who happened to be Muslims and Muslims fm countries that have not been attacked militarily by the West. The acts committed by both those groups are an affront to humanity. The question posed is very valid, in that why does this disease only seems to effect Muslims? Maybe it’s because they can find justification and shelter for their consciences in their “holy books”! There are many other countries and groups throughout the World who have in their own minds very valid and personal reasons to carry out terror attacks yet they don’t. Mainly because it would not be tolerated amongst their own communities.
@Neil Mcdonough: well I suppose anyone walking around the desert claiming to be the son of god would be considered radical/insane in those days. Only difference is now we don’t take those people seriously.
But his track record for violence and pedophilia ain’t got nothing on Mohammad.
@Ben McArthur: more US citizens are killed by radicalised gun activists than muslims! Your statistics are wrong when you remove all variables between 1970 and 1999 there were 3,300 terrorist related deaths in the U.K. Only 200 were directly related too muslims perpetrators. In fact in the last 10 years you are statistically more likely to be killed by dogs, boiling water and using your phone while driving than terrorisim in the UK!
@Warthog: You left put your Unionist pals,in that list
Interesting…
@Matty Killucan: plenty of christian terrorists over the years,
@IrishInfidel: You might have a look at the crazy ‘Christian’ folks in Florida,where a 20 year old man raped and impregnated a 10 year old girl back in 1972, & they forced her to marry him..Sad.Twisted.Fookers.
And in 2012-13,Florida had 260 such marriages of children whom were under the age of 16 years..
@Matty Killucan: riding a bmx in the 1980s also makes you “rad”.
@Francis Mc Carthy: I never suggested pedophilia and Christianity were mutually exclusive terms, we live in Ireland so I thought that went without saying.
However, Muslim countries and Muslim communities throughout Europe are massively over represented statistically when it comes child rape and marriage. It is my belief that there is a direct correlation between that and the ideology in which they subscribe to
@Wayne O’Fathaigh: @Wayne O’Fathaigh: yes but these Islam fanatics aren’t just using guns anymore. They will use whatever means necessary (knives, trucks etc) It’s time to wake up and stop accusing people for hating Islam when all we want is for these Allah-inspired plebs to be deported.
@Matty Killucan: Would you not consider the various offshoots of the IRA to be radicalised?
@sean o’dhubhghaill: In response to you and all the other whataboutists: In the context of this article, all of your points are completely irrelevant. But thanks for trying to answer a question with more questions. Fair play to ye
@IrishInfidel: Can you provide ‘credible’ links there regards child rape and marriage in Muslim communities throughout Europe ? Would love to have an oul sconce at them..
I like to go by pesky facts and that is why I mentioned the huge amount of child rape & marriages that are happening in the States..
@Matty Killucan:
Actually – in the context of your initial comment all of the points are completely relevant but go ahead and dodge them
@Thinck: Do you have anything to add to this conversation other than childish babble?
@Matty Killucan:
I have seen utterly ruthless, lethal radicalisation cost people their lives and futures from every kind of ideology, not just religions.
@Neil Mcdonough:
Bit worse than that actually…
Issa Yusuf Al Naziri has a secret life as a well respect Prophet in Islam…
In Fairness to Al-Qadri, he has never shied away from the dangers of fundamentalism- he has been warning for a long time now, and the authorities have not been listening, they are always playing catch up.
@Peter Fox: Yes he has been outspoken on many issues. He personally had no issue with the Charlie Hebdo cartoons. He has been warning about teachings in some mosques here and he said he would not take money to build a mosque as it meant he would have had to teach a particular brand of Islam. This man is a very reasonable brave individual and he is saying monitoring isn’t enough !!! Pretty much what everyone is saying but Frances herself . She seems to think it’s enough.
When are we going to deport these radicals to a country where their vile hatred for all non Muslim people is acceptable.
@ciaran kehoe: you mean Ireland? as we don’t appear to be doing anything to stop it.
Man jailed in Cork the other day for 5 years for praising IS and threatening to kill housemates.How the hell was he left into Ireland with so many previous convictions?
http://www.irishexaminer.com/ireland/man-jailed-for-threat-to-kill-flatmates-451363.html
I would ask the question, what are the Muslim council doing to combat this radicalization of young Muslims? Don’t just expect others to resolve this issue. The Muslim councils across the world need to step up and address this issue head on.
@Irish_Bond: You’ve just skimmed througj thousands of words all about what they are doing.
@Irish_Bond: People keep saying the words of hatred and incitement are contained within the Quran , they even quote verses , and people still won’t take it on board .
IT’S WRITTEN IN THE QURAN
@Irish_Bond:
Something very relevant to this you might like to take on board. One of the Doctors in Syria was up on periscope last night and somebody asked him what people in Syria thought of the London attacks…he admitted most people aren’t even really aware of them because attacks like that and worse are happening on their own doorsteps every day.
Trust me, every sane human being on Muslim Councils across the world is into overdrive trying to find a way out of *ALL* this chaos, not just the little bit that crops up in the west.
To me radicalisation is just another word for bigotry, and to me, bigotry is the most toxic poison on earth.
@غاي دالتون: Islam is close on the list for toxicity , but unlike our civil laws , it has bigotry enshrined in it’s teachings
Islamic reformation, or Islamic relocation. One or the other, the time is now.
It’s better than your idea of “calling Saudi Arabia to task”, what possible influence could we have upon them? Besides, the problem is bigger than one country; and the problem is bigger than terrorism. The problem is Islam. At least we can legislate and have influence over what happens within our own jurisdiction, what hope would we have of influencing SA? Change has to start somewhere, and we’ve waited too long for it to come independently from Islam. Islamic clerics and organisations based in western countries should be left in no doubt that the times, they are a changin’. They need to get issuing reformatory fatwas pronto.
@Peedur Dante: That’s your opinion. I think it’s the best hope we have of stopping this from spriralling out of control.
@Peedur Dante: You have made your opinion clear. Thanks.
@George Roche:
There are plenty of Fatwa ordering Muslims to abide by the laws of the country in which they live. Anyone who breaks those laws commits a crime against Islam.
@غاي دالتون: But sharia is the goal , as Erdogan said , democracy is like a train you just use it to get somewhere and then get off
The vast majority of Muslims believe Sharia should only apply to Muslims
Try drawing a picture of Mohammad publicly and you will see what turns a moderate Muslim into a radical. It like most religions is so vague, so unrealistic its interpretation is subjective on every individual who cares to study it.
so its up to us to do something about it, if we do we are picking on a minority – hmm good luck with that one Leo!!
Lived Ireland for 1e years.
One of the best country (my 2nd home) and nieces people in The world.
Any propel should not do any harm to this country (to all) by name of religion.
If you are a Muslim and reading this, just think again what would happen to us if we would not get shelter from all of these western countries.
I know you might have different opinion but blow innocent and civil citizen, not a heriotic thing to do.
Regards for a Muslim: )
@Has-an: nicely and sincerely spoken.
Need to name and shame so
@billy Dorney: Shame? How do you imagine that would work?
@Neal Ireland Hello.: By being bloody blunt,and honest,ref problems in their community not being addressed by themselves
Our greatest allies in the effective resistance to Jihadist terrorism is the vast majority of moderate and peaceful Muslims.
We should all unite against hate.
I honestly don’t know where our laws are on incitement – to hatred or commit a crime – but if at all possible they should be used for empathy training/ jail/ deportation
@vNblxOSQ:
Incitement to hatred is a crime, but there are huge problems in terms of jurisdiction in online incitment.
I think anyone inciting any kind of hate (even against people I know deserve it!) should be arrested and charged in accord with the law wherever possible. I have no idea how that practice got lost.
The internet has only a small part to play in all of this , eroding our freedoms will not solve the problem of the ideology of islam . No more sham marriages would help even more , and better controls on the physical entry of un documented migrants/refuges .
Maybe Australia has it right , keep them isolated until full background checks can be made .
One word: Clonskeagh.
@snac: one word:American
@snac: what exactly is it about Clonskeagh you wanted to say?
Dé radicalised? They need a f’in lead injection…
BBC had an article last night saying that the internet was only a small component in radicalization , it was carried out by an independent panel . The article appears to have disappeared from their web site .
It should be Muslims in Ireland and NOT Irish Muslims!!!
@June Rose-Sommer:
Why?
@June Rose-Sommer: Everyone has a right to believe in what they want as long as it doesn’t harm others but too many people try to control others because they think they are right and that only causes friction and excuses then?
people in the muslin community know who these guy are and who is brainwashing them informers worked to disable our own terrorists it has to be used again.
Wtf!!! Stop the monitoring and arrest. Get them out of Ireland and the EU now. This is a bloody joke.
@Mark Aherne:
“Monitoring” is intended to identify real threats. We do still need evidence to act, otherwise most of your deported “Jihadi” will be unwanted ex spouses and unloved next door neighbours, and frankly, that will not prevent ANY real harm at all.
The Iman speaks sense and wisdom. He has voiced strong concern for many years.
Our laws and our enforcement will require decapitation to render it possible to achieve earlier intervention where there is a proper evidential basis for so doing.
@Tony Daly: Please don’t say “decapitation” around these Jihadis, it turns them on.
@Tony Daly: Freudian slip ?
It’s really impossible to stop extremists Islam in the west, without adopting an extreme approach, similar to the one by Germany in the 1940.
@SYM-Metal: Just what we needed, another internet nazi wannabe!
If Ireland wants to avoid an islamist problem it needs to not be overrun by PC like the UK is and outright say that certain ideologies are problematic.
Let’s not forget how the main islamic organisations were lobbying for the “right” to discriminate against gay people in services based on belief (exs: denying gay people housing, shopping, etc…)
@Manuel Moreira: In how far is islamic organisations lobbying against LGBT rights different from the IONA, so called institute, lobbying against LGBT rights?
Then do something about it!! You have the power!! Sick of all the lip service!!!
@June Rose-Sommer: More calls to tighten up on the internet , and not the real problem which is islam itself , there are no radical Hindus in Ireland
@Ken Hayden: Are you sure ? I recall reading about extremist Hindu’s in India attacking Muslim butchers for killing cattle and selling beef. Quite close to shooting up of a magazine’s publisher’s office and killing members of staff in my books. Given that there’s,quite a few Hindu’s in Ireland it can’t be impossible to find a few who’s agree with those actions.
@Steven Moens: Were they imports as well ?
If there were radical Hindus here , I would also be calling for action to be taken against them . But there aren’t , and we know there radical imported muslims in Ireland . When that problem is resolved , I’ll put my efforts into radical Hindus in India .
Is that good enough for you ?
Let’s see what our political leaders suggest doing here to stop these people getting in? I hope every journalist in the country gives them a grilling to do something and fast.
i listened to that interview this morning on MI and he kept saying that the Gardai nor the authorities had contacted him in relation to the possibility of such an attack by a radical Muslim group on Irish soil and seemed perplexed and annoyed that they hadnt contacted him directly about it. 3 thoughts came to mind 1.ok why hadnt the contacted him,2 but then again why does he expect them to actually contact him in the first place, is he the only expert in the country on these radicals and 3 surely to god if he knew about them and that they were a threat that he was obliged to inform the authorities himself?. Got the feeling from the interview , he was full of his own self importance.
Islam … promotes sexual inequality… anti gay… anti freedom of expression. Worships the teachings of a monogamous war mongering child abuser (youngest of Muhammad’s wives was 6 years old…. yes 6!!!) . The most extreme of all the major religion’s and people are suprised when some individuals take it that bit further. In the year 2017 it still denies evolution in favour of an invisible magic man in the sky. Seriously people wake up. People can call it the religion of peace if they like but they can’t deny its a religion of sexism, homophobia and and anti freedom of expression
Non violent Islamic extremism is widespread and is a stepping stone to violent extremism.
Go back home problem solved
Name and shame them its the only way that goes for every filth in every country
In the same way as pedos do, bullies and low lifes, evil people always do evil things. They excuse them to be let do them, no matter the excuse the action they take will show them for who they are but then how do you protect the victims but through education, I suppose?
whats the motive of these attacks for what reason are they depressed or something stupid saps think they go to paradise what a load bollocks
What illiterate fuc wrote the hashtag?
have your say
