Belfast Is Burning, and the Media Won’t Say Why
As Belfast descends into chaos, Britain’s political and media class once again focuses on the riots while sidestepping the policies that fueled them.​

by Josh Hammer

early three decades after the end of the Troubles, Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, is once again on fire.

On Monday, June 8, a Sudanese “asylum” seeker attacked a local man on the street with a kitchen knife, slashing him across the face and neck. Graphic video of the attack, which blinded the victim in one eye, rapidly spread online. The suspect, identified as Hadi Alodid, has been charged with attempted murder, possession of a knife in a public place, and making threats to kill. In response, Belfast erupted.

Rioters took to the streets, hurling bricks and bottles at police, torching vehicles, and burning homes in some Belfast neighborhoods with large migrant populations. Police deployed water cannons. Families were forced to flee burning buildings. The Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service responded to 62 incidents in a single night. At least 27 people have been left homeless.

Lest there be any doubt: Arson, mob violence, and the burning of innocent people’s homes are all indefensible acts. Mobocracy is here, there, and everywhere the enemy of civilization. The masked men who burned out their neighbors for no reason disgraced themselves and their cause.

But that hopefully obvious point aside, here is the question the Western press refuses to ask: Why does this keep happening?

Consider the matter for a moment. Ireland spent centuries demonstrating that Catholics and Protestants, despite sharing a language, a history, and a small island, could find endless reasons to quarrel and do harm to each other. It therefore required a remarkable confidence in human nature to conclude that importing tens of thousands of Muslims from entirely different cultural and religious traditions would automatically produce perfect social harmony. Such optimism is admirable in poets, but, as the recent attempted beheading demonstrates, it has a poor record in public policy.

No one is suggesting that it automatically produces perfect social harmony.

There's a difference between believing that different cultures can assimilate successfully and believing that assimilation can be 100% achieved quickly. The Irish immigrated to the US and had huge issues both from the native population as well as the migrant population for decades. Over time, things adjusted and became better.

It was still quite a bit of give and take as things developed

That being said, there are lots of differences between those challenges and our current ones.

Your perspective is not clear eyed and places blame squarely on people you dislike without hesitation or introspection.

I haven't read your article, though your support doesn't bode well for a better outcome.

Please bless us with your clear-eyed perspective and introspection on who was beheading who in the public street in Ireland, thus creating this deadly backlash by the Irish public.

Beheadings should create social backlash.
Those responsible should be criminally prosecuted.

Please elaborate on your suggestion of changes to immigration policy based on this.

It is being reported that the "immigrants" are self-deporting from Northern Ireland.

I said it another thread that if the British Government doesn't get its act together they may find out that their government has a different Monarch and the current ones might be out of their jobs (and castles).

Starmer has made something of a laughingstock of his administration. I spent a brief time in Britain only a few years ago and found a country going about its business with considerably less drama than we see today. The deterioration has been so rapid that one is left wondering whether it was the product of misfortune or merely the inevitable consequence of governance by theory rather than common sense.

Yeah, it’s becoming quite common for the right wing to disrupt societies after they lose elections.

The methods they use are also quite common…

And there's the lesson. A civilization that was centuries in the building can be destroyed virtually overnight. And IT CAN HAPPEN HERE.
 
Oh justwait! You havent even begun to see whats coming! 357 members.of congress going bye bye for being involved in child sex trafficking, pedifilia AMD CANIBALISM!

And that goes for your beloved media as well!1000031508.jpg

I believe it was intentional. What we don't know is what they desired to accomplish by it.

Ukraine is another example of intentional acts against their own society. What's different than what's happening in the UK and Europe, is that it's obvious that the Ukraine conflict was begun by Russia as a means to acquire food/land/bodies but has morphed into a population reduction method since the acquisition attempt has failed.

I don't know about Northern Ireland, but in the USA, native-born citizens have a higher rate of violent crime than immigrants. I wouldn't be surprised if the same is true there.
 
Ireland is a place to leave, as the Muslims will discover. The no booze part of sharia law will get some hard testing.

I like how you prefaced that with "violent crime" instead of just mentioning that EVERY illegal immigrant is a criminal the moment they unlawfully cross the border into the US. 100% of them.

Parsing the facts to avoid facing the larger picture is so you. What's even better is that you won't acknowledge that what you did was lie by intentional omission. Which is also so you.

Not true. Overstaying one's visa is a civil infraction, not a criminal one.
 
Nobody was beheaded, nobody was shot. The UK is not America.

Musk weighed in with racism from Nigel Farage and Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, pretending that the issue was immigration across the English Channel by undocumented brown people.

The perp was a Sudanese who arrived by commercial flight with a passport from Paris, France to Dublin, Ireland and then legally crossed the open border to the UK where he claimed asylum. His knife was illegally carried, it was not the blunt ceremonial dagger carried by Sikhs.

Hope this helps the poorly educated. (y)

THIS^..

When constituency becomes an after thought revolution is near at hand. Citizens don't vote for people only to have their wishes fall to the bottom of the list.
