Anti Semitic Graffiti on AIB Docklands HQ

    Jesus Christ, as if things were not bad enough, now the Irish NAZIs are out with a paint brush

    "Zionist engineered global financial holocaust”, “Jewish supremacist destruction of indigenous Europeans” “Zionist global financial terrorism”. are the slogans daubed on the upper floors.

    The words of Jake Elwood spring to mind.

    I'm quite impressed at all the big words they know.

    How the hell did Seanie Fitz get up there to write that?

    Smash H Blocks was as political as it got in my day.

    No, but that could be the case.

    If they're crowing about Jews running a worldwide conspiracy I think that's a pretty good indicator the person is a Nazi. Or a run-of-the-mill conspiracy nut but I've never heard of them vandalising property with these slogans.

    Okay, but I was expecting to see at least a swastika? I think Zionism is a dangerous set of ideals.

    If I'm opposed to Obamas policies I could be a racist.

    That's a better point - the easy swapping of anti Zionism and anti-Semitic sentiment is all too frequent.

    Zionism is the ideology of a Jewish state of Israel, you can agree or disagree with that as you wish, this 'jooos are controlling the world' nonsense however is the ideology of some deranged subscriber to 'The Protocols of the Elders of Zion' conspiracy nonsense and that is nothing more then plain, good old fashioned anti-semitism.

    You need a swastika, because

    "Zionist engineered global financial holocaust”, “Jewish supremacist destruction of indigenous Europeans” “Zionist global financial terrorism”.

    isn't enough?

    Whats intriguing is that it was previously thought they hadn't developed their thumbs sufficiently to be able to use writing.

    Yeah I'd probably agree with that.

    Not really. Antisemitism wouldn't be the only requirements of being a Nazi.

    This sort of rubbish was being said about the Jews for centuries long before the Nazis came into existence.

    Its just lazy to typecast these people as Nazis. Catholic Europe was virulently anti-semetic for 2 millenia, its just far too conveniant that we can pass this off now to Nazism at every turn.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,567 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    Poor old misunderstood Nazis getting the blame for anti Semitic graffiti.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,488 ✭✭✭✭Ush1


    Do people think Hezbollah or Hamas are Nazis?

    There are many semitic people, only some could be describable as Jewish.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semitic_people

    Some attention seeking muppets have painted a building.

    And everyone knows that those who created the financial crisis were only in it for themselves. There is no conspiracy just a lot of mé feiners.

    ...and that's the thread plunging towards a middle-East style quagmire, detracting from the main issue at hand; morons who think that the Protocols of the Elders of Zion is distributed at all barmitzvahs.

    Whataboutery truly is the nuclear option for organised thread spoiling.

    The Nazis were never as bad as AIB

    Ironic considering you don't know who daubed it.

    How do you know it wasn't someone irked about the middle east exactly? It would be certainly more topical for one thing. I would consider a moron looking for a reaction quite different that someone with an agenda and serious "Nazi" beliefs.

    Well, it was hardly the Mexicans, was it?

    Or maybe it was and you can't prove otherwise. Oh god, they're on to me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,749 ✭✭✭✭wes


    This kind of silliness is something we don't need. Whoever did that graffiti, needs to sort themselves out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,906 ✭✭✭✭PhlegmyMoses


    Such a weird thing for an Irish person to focus on. We have around 5 jews living here and it's unlikely these guys have met any of them.

    No clue. I haven't seen many Nazi rallies or anything around, last time I was in Cork there was a protest outside Tescos saying to boycott Israel and they had Palestine flags. Maybe it was them?

    Whatabboutery I guess.

    Well, it doesn't mention to middle-east for starters, and the fact that it's daubed on a failed bank would line up with the Neo-Nazi conspiracy nonsense about Jews controlling the world.

    And when did it become not ok to bash a Nazi for feck sake, you must really hate that biggoted Indiana Jones fella, it's PC gone MMaaaaDD I tell ya!

    The issue is the defacement of state owned property.

    We have rights to free speech in this country unless I've missed a memo.

    Perhaps they could be tried under some sort of hatred incitement law but I'm not sure we even do that here.


    Now had they used different wording then they could have had the blasphemy law thrown at them.

    Or maybe some evil zionist organisation exists and has copyrighted those words and could sue them for infringement. (All joking aside copyright here is up to €127,000 fine and/or 5 years (ie. citizens arrest territory) and Scientology do use copyright as a weapon )

    Antisemitic propaganda from the middle east doesn't look a whole lot different from anywhere else, why would it have to mention the middle east?

    Again, Nazis don't have the monopoly on antisemitism.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2 Broadsheat


    What have the IPSC got to say about this despicable display of hatred?

    I've been trying to contact them all morning for comment and still no reply. This is their chance to stop burning Israeli flags and prove they're not all Jew-haters.

    nazism was about more than jew hating. And being anti zionist is just being against the state of israel. These people are anti-semetic because they are blaming a financial meltdown on a race of people.

    It's down to greed by a small percentage of people, aided by incompetence of others.
