If you think this is bad your far right
Turns out this scumbag who attacked the children and teacher should have been deported years ago.

I was brutally attacked and robbed in city center of Dublin on March this year. There was a lot of pedestrians but no one helped me. It was definitely my first and last visit in this lovely city
Here in Germany they also never say when the perp is a migrant ….only one answer deportation and if that does not work; Full Metal Jacket
Stand with the Irish against the government of Ireland.
The government must go.
Religion of peace at it again
Hey BBC why do my neighbours in the UK not know that the children were stabbed by an Algerian man?
Prayers for Ireland 🥹😔😞from 🇱🇻 Latvia
This "man" slashed the throats of a little 5year old child ,this savage was given irish citizenship after he appe led his deportation ,this is the thanks this COWARD shows us.
He should be stripped if this citizenship and deported ,he hasnt worked a day in his life here.
UK and the rest of Western have all become third world shitholes full of violent minorities.
Algerians are not welcome in ireland
mass immigration is neo colonialism, lack of respect of the local culture, perpetrated in the name of diversity, at a scale never seen before and supported by US corporation who prefer to hire someone from far flung countries rather than training Irish/local or even EU citizens. The Normans, the Huguenot, the German from Palatinate assimilated into Ireland..becoming more Irish than the Irish…I don't think the latest wave will assimilate at all…with the internet they feel like at home, with their numbers they will marry with each other -pressurizing themselves to keep their original culture-, with their religion there will be incompatibility, with the first names given to their children they won't feel 100% Irish, with their clothes they will look different, with the rise of struggles between civilizations their will be frictions and violent groups taking advantage of it… Assimilation will be a problem and highly probably Ireland will become like Belgium, Germany, France or the UK with ethnic tensions and two civilization (if not more) within the nation. In other words civil war or pre-civil war. Imagine Germany being at war (or even having diplomatic tension) against Turkey or Belgium against morocco …you will have enemies on your own territory by millions.
Let me fix the headlines for the cowardly media(government), "Migrant Murders Locals." When the attacker is part of a special protected class the headlines say "Knife Attack" but when the attacker is a local citizen the media states their full name, shows you their photo and names the crime. In related news The PM of Sweden finally admitted that assimilation has failed and they are now switching their resources to controlling crime rates. So now the Swedish PM is far right?
What has happened is our simp politicians have embraced the idiocy of multiculturalism which is the belief that an intolerant Muslim society(women are worth half of a man and LGBTQ people are to be executed) can mix with a modern Western society(men and women are equal and people can love whoever they want). The results are rape and murder epidemics across Europe and gays being persecuted again as if it was the 70's. Meanwhile Poland is fined hundreds of millions per year by the EU for not accepting migrants. Poland is also the only EU country who hasn't had a terrorist attack, a rape epidemic or skyrocketing murder rates.
Ireland 🇮🇪 is for pure Irish only, no foreigners allowed.
And people in america think if they banned guns it would solve some kind of problem. Lmao nah people are gonna murder regardless
Ohhh no! I hope these innocent children and the man and woman recover! Sending horrified support love to Dublin!
Islam
westerns racism never fall to surprise me how did they know it was an Algerian immigrant who did that although the authority didnt identify the suspect
May the children and the lady have a speedy recovery
Senator Kearney is spreading lies. She claims that the war in Ukraine was unprovoked. These are the facts: The war in Ukraine was not unprovoked. Ukraine murdered 14,000 Russians in Ukraine between 2014 and 2022. The Russians didn't want this war, but the West didn't care at all about the genocide of minorities in the Donbas. Russia invaded Ukraine in order to stop this madness. Now she might claim that the protests in Ireland are unprovoked either, again she is wrong. The protesters in Ireland were provoked because Ireland has been invaded by mass immigrants from Muslim countries. Irish children were stabbed by a Muslim migrant, thus they have the right to protest and protect Ireland from Muslims. Senator Kearney is the epitome of the Western world today, she twists the truth in order for her lies to match her perverted narrative. The people of Ireland deserve better. They deserve politicians who care for Ireland.
Almost certainly Radical islam is involved here
Seems like a very respectable woman. Helped the kids and protected the attacker from revenge and spoke well. Well done to you lady.
If I want to visit the Middle East I won't go to Ireland … why is it the whole worlds responsibility to accept people that hate us?
who did it?
Wild that the Irish fought so hard against the English only to get colonized by Muslims 😂 😊
Home rule 🇮🇪
Injured? Isn’t one dead?!
I hope the Irish rise up and fight back.
