    I never said he wasnt.

    My point is that irish folks need to stay well clear of lunatic arab politics. They dont do things the way we do them at home.

    It looks very like he'd still be doing porridge but for the irish passport.

    Given that the ISIS flag is widely known (You can Google it and it's been on the 6 One and other sources numerous times) I imagine it's the same as the flag but smaller and able to wrap round ones head.

    As far as I know there is a black flag with a specific slogan in white writing, a black background with white writing is not unusual.
    Unless Prendeville saw something that says Up ISIS, he could always find the picture and maybe have someone translate it.

    Exactly, there's one particular poster on here who doesn't know the correct spelling of Muslim/Moslem

    Actually both are correct Moslem / Muslim

    It's exactly the same

    No **** sherlock, I was speaking about a poster, who ironically thanked your post without hint of self awareness by the way, who attacked someone for using the correct spelling Moslem, then claimed the correct spelling was actually Muslem (sic)

    Im not advocating shakira law but surely a corner stone of our country is to allow other cultures to co-exist in harmony.

    No there shouldn't. You come to our Countries you adapt to our culture or laws or get lost. If anyone wants to live under Sharia law then they should pick a Country that already has it and go there immediately. If our flag offends then find one that doesn't offend you and move there immediately.

    We should be adopting a "I don't care how it is back home. You're not going to turn our Country into the ****hole you just left."

    Good on Neil for putting the spotlight on the inexcusable and extremist views of the Muslim brotherhood.

    The two Halawas were pathetic when asked some pertinent questions. The brother particularly so.

    The sister went into rant mode in a desperate attempt to distract and deflect Neil's questions.

    Nah, Sharia law is one thing but people who move from one country to another will always, invariably, bring some of their culture with them.

    A real live issue here is why the state PUBLIC broadcaster didn't ask this guy the questions the public all want answers to and it was left to a chap on a radio show in Cork to do it. It's not good enough.

    Yes, he only intermittently engaged with them, and demonstrated no evidence of being open-minded on the issues. It was a hatchet job that I think is being received well on boards only because of the soft treatment he has received elsewhere. Two wrongs don't make a right

    In fairness it was hard for him to get a word in at times. The sister in particular went off long tangents that appeared designed to eat up airtime.

    If you listen on after the interview, he takes some calls and the first one is a lady (also Islamic) who doesn't believe a word of what they said.

    The next fella congratulates Neil on asking the questions no-one else seems to want to.

    They (the Halawa's) don't seem to be convincing many anyway!

    Its when they want to impose their culture on us its the problem. Too many immigrants want to force their customs on the Countries they're immigrating too.

    Yes, things like the reaction to The Satanic Verses or that manufactured Danish cartoon nonsense isn't multiculturism.

    But you initial post I quoted was that cultures should not co-exist in harmony and instead everyone should assimilate to our exact culture, which basically doesn't happen in the history of human migration.

    Did I say he wrote it? But it’s clear he supports it from that interview which is very telling.

    Was there any masterbating?

    No, but there was a bit of Halawa-baiting

    Ah the typical 'he supports sharia law!' reaction

    Well there's something we wouldn't have been able to predict :/ ... Muslim supports shariah law, hold the front page!

    I despair at what I read on here at times. What next? Jews support the law of Moses? Christians support Biblical law!? Never!

    As for his views on gay marriage, who gives a damn. So long as he isn't planning to kill them who cares? We have an entire county who voted against gay marriage.

    There are serious issues around this case, but this nonsense that he supports sharia law and wanting to know his views on homosexuality is stupid, and in my view takes away from the real issues at hand. There are far more important, and relevant, questions that he could be getting asked.

    All of Longford voted against gay marriage? Who are you, Marion Keyes?
