    Do we have a list of proscribed terrorist organisations here like they do in the UK and the north? It would be useful because my concern would be him coming back here without being incarcerated.

    Can his citizenship be revoked?

    Or maybe give his captors a nod and a wink?

    We can do without the likes of him wandering around freely over here.

    Give him a gun remove the firing pin and let him run away then shoot him in the back .

    Fixed

    We're some country. Sham marriage and he writes a letter to the Minister and that sorts out the matter.
    The taxpayer supports the family as there's no way he could afford to live in Dublin on a bit of work here and there with a wife and child. But sure, bring them all in and throw Citizenship at them even though there's serious doubts about the whole relationship.

    Lose the job but no worries, even if your new to the country
    "In Ireland if you lost a job you can go to the social welfare and the government will supply you.

    And now, he wants to come home. I expect the NGO's to be weary for a while but eventually a turf war will break out and Amnesty, Irish Immigrant Council etc will be canvassing for him

    Extraordinary to watch Sky News today to hear them talk of an Irish ISIS fighter.

    My eyes widened in surprise and eagar to find out where in Ireland he's from.

    Untill I saw on the Sky News banner his name is Vlkasdzlkadlkasdjfljdalsfa Muhalchouukcialhfeon.

    He’s on RTÉ news now telling his sob story

    No doubt he’ll on with joe Duffy and tubridy soon

    Just put a bullet in his skull now and end this circus

    Just watched this. He said he 'wanted to help Muslims'. Jeeze.

    Such a poisonous attitude to think ppl of your own religion are your own kind regardless of what nationality they are, and you must help them because of that alone. No wonder Muslims from Morocco have carried out terrorist attacks in Paris because of an affinity for their Muslim brothers in Iraq.

    When does the government jet go out to bring him back anyway?

    I presume at this stage he has had some decent advice on what to say and that he won't spend too long on the housing lost when he gets home.

    From the stories i've heard from lads that have been in Aus, our brightest are causing a lot more trouble than is been reported, but sure our lot would never do anything wrong.


    Go back to talking about your bike and NFl because clearly thats all you know :pac:

    lol It is not still the case the British security services who tip us off on what radical extremists are up to in Ireland? Nobody in the Gardai even speaks Arabic, plenty speak Irish but that does flip all good in todays world.

    Something really doesn't add up to this story. If we go back to when this story broke why was it stated in the news report that he had been under gardai surveillance for two years.

    This country and also rte seriously needs to wise up and stop making us a laughing stock.

    Love to hear the consulate crowd who are fighting his corner explain just why he was under surveillance??

    RTE has an agenda with these types of stories, and it's in line with the extreme liberal migration policies being forced on populations in many areas of Europe, and that agenda simple states that all migration into Europe is good and homogeneity is bad. RTE will not report or under-report any migration story that contravenes this ridiculous concept.

    RTE does not represent the view of the vast majority of the country, yet it's the primary driver of governmental policies that adversely affects that majority. RTE should be disbanded, as it is no longer an impartial national broadcaster. It would be better suited as the national broadcaster of countries like Venezuela or North Korea, where a one-sided view of events is the expected norm.

    Totally agree. But how stupid do they think people are. Broadcasting a story of how this Irish citizen was wrongly mixed up with ISIS. But he was under surveillance in Ireland ffs. Your 100% correct about rte and people should be aware about the one sided news were being fed.

    We're not meant to be asking why he was under surveillance.

    We're meant to bury our heads in the sand and marvel at how empathic our leader is because he is trying to help one of our citizens.

    More gaslighting from our overlord.

    Still a firm believer that paying for citizenship does not make you irish. End of story. My girlfriend isn’t Irish. She has citizenship but she’s not Irish. And I say it to her all the time.

    This pathetic scum was in the Irish indo yest pleading and begging to be brought back here

    "If they want to put me on trial that is their right. Ireland is my home, and I want to go back. This is my right," he says. "If I am a bad son of this country, this is still my home. If you think I'm a bad person, it doesn't mean you have to throw me in the sea."

    The sea? The sea??? That’s the easy way out for you ye degenerate cnut
