Gadaffi - irish safe haven

fryup

Do you think the irish or more to the point sinn fein should provide a safe house for colonel Gadaffi, i mean they owe him one after all the weapons he gave them back in the 80s.

And lets not forget about all the irish beef Libya bought from us over the years.

So lets cut the guy some slack and give him a nice seluded home in south armagh, i'm sure slab murphy has got a spare bed.

Why not give him a house in Dublin. "Gadaffi's gaff" does have a nice ring to it.

Ian, is that you?

South Armagh? Safe haven?

The Brits haven't quite left yet, you know. Don't think they would take too kindly to Gaddafi hiding out in their territory.

Not a bad idea. Perhaps, he can live in Célestin Lainé's old home. Surely, you remember that NAZI war criminal sentenced to death and protected by Dev and his FF chums? A man that died peacefully in 1983 and had never been expatriated by any government, FF or FG.

Tbh I'm not even sure if Ian Paisley still uses the "Sinn Fein/IRA" slogan any more, I honestly believe there are some people in the Republic more intent on dragging up the past instead of looking to the future than even he is.

Yeah, I suppose he does look like one of the locals. He'd blend right in :pac:

Interesting thread.

I have no doubt there will be people in Northern Ireland willing to keep him safe. After all, it was him who give weapons to the IRA to carry on the killing and some would say genocide.

Phoenix Park

How much rent would he pay do ya reckon?. Could be handy. Anyone got his number?

Sounds like RTE's next misjudged after school youth programme.

wouldn't fancy him as a housemate, never shuts up

News just in .....

Tonly Blair has sent an '' unofficial '' request to his father in law , former actor Tony Booth , asking would he put Col Gadaffi up for a week or two in his house in Co Caven , just until things settle down . :pac:

I think he prefers a tent. He brought his own when he came on a state visit to Paris last year.

Now there's a good name for a nightclub. We can have Gadaffi as head barman.

Adamisconfused

Actually, I think he might like a little place in Kildare. Is Martinstown House up for sale? Isn't that where Skorzeny lived for a while during the sixties?
Ironically enough, our old buddy Muammar hired Otto and his little mercenary unit once upon a time.

Are you serious?


Well in that case, 'some would say' the British Army are guilty of genocide by carrying out Bloody Sunday.

Exactly what race would this "genocide" have been committed on?

I would call that retaliation, etnic cleansing is were a group of people are targeted with hope of eradication ect. Look towards groups which outlaw said members of the ethnicity. Any way keith to be honest I have no sympathy for a group of people who deny people of other religions an effective vote, or rights to jobs and equal treatment, the same people turn on members of their own religion when they befriend members of another religion. When looking at the past its easy to pick out right and wrong but the point is in cases like this retaliation was going to happen its human nature and in the end the norths a better place with equal rights for all religions.

A nasty race that discriminates against those of another religion even members of their own religion.

Nice. I don't think Gadaffi will move to the republic. He could be put on trial for crimes against humanity, then add in his part in the killing of Protestants.

That's Bollix.

Anybody who has a nightclub named after them, with such a cool sounding name as "Gadaffi's Gaff" will never be put on trial. It just wouldn't happen.

How about we swap him for Paul Gogarty.?

No. People were killed in the troubles because of their religion. The IRA did it too as we all know.

Thats what im saying. That is what he did. Weapons came from him to the PIRA who killed people, some who got picked out because of their religion. Its not sectarian. Its true.

I think so, he has proved himself to be a friend of the Celts when we gave us arms to fight the enemy.

I think it was John Snow who said that Gaddafi farts a lot, (that would be fun in a tent), apparently when John interviewed him a few years ago Gaddafi intermittently lifted a bum cheek and 'blew off' without even raising an eyebrow, and 'that picture' of Gadaffi in the disabled electric car with an umbrella is priceless, a bit like a scene from a Pink Panther film featuring Peter Sellers (in disguise)
