you will be waiting. if there is any evidence of illegal activity at this mosq then it should be reported to the authorities and investigated appropriately.

There should also be an investigation into the funding of the Clonskeagh mosque. The content of the preaching and the provenance of the invited preachers should be thoroughly investigated. Established Muslim Brotherhood connections should be mapped out.
I know daddy Halawa is a massive figure in that organisation. Everybody knows it is basically a MB supporting mosque.

All this would happen in a rational society with a rational leadership. Not a chance in Ireland.
What happens is that our grandstanding new Taoiseach goes there for yet another photo op right after the Dublin gay pride parade.
I mean, that is so messed up on so many levels.

Up on the roof ....

I concur totally with the investigation suggestion.

There has already been such evidence presented as to concerns about activites at the Islamic Centre,however it is uncertain as to what follow up investigations resulted.

Perhaps you could expand on what you would consider an "appropriate" level of investigation at this location,given the sensitivities involved ?

Currently,in the Irish domain,Mr Humphries is the sole source of on-line material covering the activities of the main players here,in fairness to him,he offers this material for free and open consideration and invities comment and criticism.

Sources suggesting the info might have come from the 4 bastards in Spanish custody. Like i said a few days ago i hope they water boarded the living ****e out of them to obtain any info that prevents attacks. These aren't people, they are sub human animals and deserve no human rights.

Noticed it just after the arrest that they were giving up a lot of info straight away, such as the other planned attacks. Must be having a nice time in the cells

That recent incident in Dublin where a car ploughed into a crowd of people around Harcourt street/Adelaide road. I found the reporting around it strange. Very little detail about who was involved etc.
A anyone know more about it.

Seems to have been an electronic fault in a disabled driver's automatic car.

The CIA gave the Spanish police a tip off about an attack just two months ago.

I'm beginning to think that Europe simply does not have the cultural tools to deal with things like radical Islam or the migrant crisis. The quest for tolerance and diversity has destroyed its ability to deal with those type of things. Hear me out, it's not that tolerance and diversity are bad, but here's where I think it went wrong:

In the aftermath of WWII, where war and genocide were created by widespread prejudice and ethnic chauvinism, there was a completely logical push in Europe to embrace values of tolerance towards ethnic minorities. And this made, and still makes, perfect sense. People needed to learn to tolerate the differences of the different ethnic and religious groups in their society. If a minority group follows a different religion, the majority should be tolerant and understanding of their differences. It makes for a more harmonious society. Same with diversity. If you have multiple different ethnic groups living within your society or community, it makes perfect sense to get the input of all these groups when working or making plans. These are ideas that make societies made up of different groups stronger and more harmonious. A society where people are tolerant of each other is good, a society where different ethnic groups are slitting each other's throats the moment the economy goes sour is bad.

But here's where I think these ideas went off the rails. Being tolerant and seeking diversity within your own society is good. But somehow, these ideas of tolerance and diversity were extended not just to your own society or country, but to everywhere in the world. "Tolerance" is now demanded not only towards minorities in your own country (which is good), it is now demanded that you also be "tolerant" of people and cultural ideas which have nothing to do with your society. You are expected to not only be tolerant of the beliefs of your neighbors, but also some guy a thousand miles away in Pakistan and his beliefs. And if that guy from Pakistan wants to move from his country to yours, you'd better be tolerant of both his desire to move to your country and his foreign culture once he gets there. The idea of "tolerance" now means that you are supposed to embrace cultures and values that are completely alien to your society, have no history in your society, and have nothing to do with your society.

Likewise with diversity. The concept started off as seeking representation from all the different parts of your community, and has morphed into this idea that if your community is too homogeneous, outsiders should be imported to increase "diversity" levels. It is forbidden to question whether "diversity" is in of itself a good thing as opposed to simply being a way to ensure the different parts of your community are working together. The new dogma is that the greater number of different cultural and religious groups there are in a society, the higher its diversity and the better off it is. And you'd better not dare question this assumption. If your community doesn't contain enough people of different ethnic or religious backgrounds, well, you can always just import some!

My argument is that both these ideas are warped from their original conception. Tolerance and diversity should be about making your own society more harmonious, not about importing as many foreign cultures as you can and "tolerating" them so that your country becomes more ethnically and religiously fractured than it was before. Many nations have moved further and further to the left on these ideas. Even in my own country, the US, the Democratic Party has moved further and further to the left on immigration issues. I was just reading an article about how the Democrats have lost a good portion of their former base in the working class because they've decided that illegal immigration is a civil rights issue that's no longer up for debate. As in, if you oppose illegal immigration, you are opposing a civil right. Yes, that's right, even wanting immigration laws to be enforced is now seen as a bigoted, racist, and intolerant position.

And it can't keep going. These ongoing problems are making it more and more obvious that stretching ideas of "tolerance" and "diversity" beyond your own country to include every other country on the planet is not working, and that "it's unambiguously a good thing to import more foreigners and foreign cultures" is completely untrue.

There is another security operation taking place from Catalan Police at the Sangrada Familia Catholic church in Barcelona tonight.

The police bomb squad are there to check a van near the church.

The church is cordoned off according to Twitter.

Hopefully this is another false alarm for the people of Barcelona.

False alarm.
