Ireland: After Muslim migrant stabs four,
PM vows crackdown on speech,
silencing of opposition to mass migration
This’ll fix everything. Ireland will learn to be multicultural and the old Irish and the new will march happily into the brilliantly diverse future.
In reality, of course, Ireland will become a pesthole of crime and jihad violence, as the native Irish are conquered and destroyed, reduced to dhimmi status. They exchanged Christianity for Leftism, and now they’re enjoying its glorious fruits, as all of the West soon will.
Dublin riots: Varadkar vows to punish racists responsible
as immigrants fear more attacks
by Shawn Pogatchnik, Politico, November 24, 2023:
DUBLIN — Prime Minister Leo Varadkar vowed Friday to crack down on racist extremists who fought street battles with riot police — a “Rubicon moment” for a state ill-equipped to combat rising working-class animosity to immigrants.
Thursday night’s unprecedented anti-immigration riots were triggered by the stabbing of three young children and an adult carer outside their school (note that it was a Catholic School) in the heart of Dublin, critically wounding a 5-year-old girl. Onlookers quickly wrestled a knife-wielding man to the ground – and social media accounts run by anti-immigrant campaigners almost as speedily branded the suspect a foreigner….
Varadkar said the government within weeks would pass two key pieces of legislation. One would empower police to use facial-recognition technology to track Thursday night’s rioters captured by surveillance cameras on buses, trains, private vehicles and shops. The other would give police new powers to prosecute online promoters of hate speech.
“It’s now obvious to anyone who might have doubted it that our incitement to hatred legislation is just not up to date for the social media age,” said Varadkar, whose country hosts the European headquarters of most social media companies, including X, TikTok and Facebook.
Referring to Irish social media accounts with large followings and racist messages, he said, “We need laws to be able to go after them individually … They’re to blame and we’re going to get them.”…
“We’re a country of migrants. We’ve gone all over the world as a people,” he said. “Our public services wouldn’t operate without migration. There’d be nobody to look after the sick or to care for the old, certainly not enough people.”
“When I go into big companies, whether it’s tech companies or companies that produce medical devices or pharmaceuticals, I see how diverse the workforce is,” he said. “And these are the companies and the people who pay massive amounts of tax that allow us to build social housing and schools, and to fund our public services and our welfare system. If it wasn’t for migrants, this country would be a vastly inferior place to what it is.”…
The spontaneous eruption of rioting was almost certainly not against immigrants in general. As much as Varadkar would never admit it, it was against Muslim immigrants. Those who completely ignore Irish laws, the rights of women and children, and who are so easily triggered into acts of Islamic hysteria, like stabbing children.
The rioting is likely to just get worse until Varadkar comes to the realiation that Muslims punch way above their weight in terms of criminal activity and violence. The Irish rebelled last week because the government refuses to see the truth and therefore cannot deal with it.
Immigrant delivery driver hailed as hero
after stopping Dublin knife attack
Nov. 25 (UPI) -- A 43-year-old Brazilian delivery driver is being hailed a hero after using a motorcycle helmet to thwart a stabbing during Dublin's anti-immigrant violence.
An online fundraiser to "Buy Caio Benicio a pint" has raised more than 350,000 euros, about $383,000, since it launched on Thursday. Benicio, a Rio de Janeiro native who lives in Dublin, witnessed the stabbing as he was passing by on his moped.
Irish national broadcaster RTE said Benicio -- who has been living in Ireland for a year -- was working as a delivery driver when he saw a man attack a woman and three children. He originally thought it was a fight.
"I saw him stab the little girl. And it was everything by instinct. I remember, I took off my helmet to protect myself and use it as a weapon," he said. "Just hit him in the head with all the power I had. And he fell down. And I hit him and then come other people and start to to kick him."
Benicio he didn't even realize the events unfolding around him were related to ongoing anti-immigrant protests in Dublin.
"I am immigrant and I was right there to protect Irish people," he said. "We are here to work. Most of the people are here to work hard and make the economy of the country better. The work we do here is good for the country. It's good for themselves. They just have hate."

Musk critical of Irish PM as tensions
remain high following Dublin riot
Nov. 25 (UPI) -- Billionaire Elon Musk criticized Ireland's prime minister on Saturday as tensions in the capital of Dublin remained high following violent anti-immigrant riots earlier in the week.
Security in Dublin remained high following a knife attack Thursday that sparked street protests and looting in city. Police arrested more than 45 people during the mele.
Musk, owner of the X social media platform, took aim at Taoiseach Leo Varadkar, writing in a response to another's post that the head of the Irish government "hates the Irish people."
Musk made the statement in response to a post highlighting Varadkar's promise to tighten hate and incitement legislation in the wake of the violence, vowing that his governing coalition would pass new laws enabling police to better use evidence collected by closed circuit television cameras in identifying rioters.
Misinformation about the knife attack spreading on social media platforms has been blamed by authorities in helping fuel the rioting.
What misinformation? The news media never mentioned that the stabber was a Muslim, or that the children had just emerged from a Catholic School? If there was misinformation, it came from mainstream media, the police, or the government.
Musk later suggested UFC star and Dublin native Conor McGregor should run for the prime minister's office.
"This is their last term in office," he wrote, referring to Varadkar's coalition.
Meanwhile, Irish Justice Minister Helen McEntee urged people Saturday to return to Dublin, assuring the public the city of 1.2 million people is safe.
"It's so important that people feel safe in our town and in our cities right across this country," McEntee said in a statement Saturday afternoon.
Thursday's violence elicited the largest-ever response of riot police in the country's history.
"A high visibility policing plan is in place throughout the weekend, including the deployment of four public order units," McEntee said in the update.
Police canines and mounted units were deployed across the city, as were two water cannons.
McEntee also announced $4.8 million in funding to buy additional police vehicles and equipment.
The government is spending real money to treat the symptoms of a dreadful disease, not the disease itself.
Ireland's national police, An Garda Síochána, confirmed a handful of further arrests were made Friday.
