Ireland to crack down on taxpayers for rioting after Muslim immigrant stabs children

Ireland Prime Minister Leo Varadkar Friday announced new “hate” legislation which will increase police surveillance and allow authorities to “go after” taxpayers for social media posts.

Varadkar claimed the legislation is in response to violent riots in Dublin Thursday after reports that an Algerian Muslim immigrant stabbed an adult and three small children near a school. The attacker stabbed a five-year-old girl, a five-year-old boy, and a six-year-old girl before also attacking a school worker who tried to shield the children. He was neutralized by passersby.

The little boy has been discharged from the hospital but as of Friday one of the girls and the adult remained in critical condition.

Protesters launched demonstrations in central Dublin Thursday night, calling on politicians to close the border to migrants and tighten immigration policies. The protests grew violent as some demonstrators set vehicles on fire and vandalized certain establishments. A Holiday Inn Express believed to be housing migrants was set on fire and mosques were reportedly targeted. A bus was also set ablaze with the word “OUT” scrawled on its front. Several police officers were hurt and thirty-four people were arrested, according to The New York Times.

International news media and Irish officials were quick to pin the protests on “hate” and the “far-Right.”

“We have not seen a public disorder situation like this before,” said Irish police force Garda Chief Drew Harris, who said a group of people had made “a bathful of assumptions — hateful assumptions.”

Proposed legislation in recent months aimed at increasing facial recognition surveillance was met with opposition, but Varadkar suggested at a press conference Friday that it now may be pushed through.

“We’re also bringing through legislation at the moment around the use of CCTV [camera surveillance], the gardaí collected a huge amount of CCTV evidence last night, we have a lot of CCTV in the city centre,” he said. “It’s important that we’re able to use modern technologies to go through that and go through it quickly.

“So we want to make sure that we make those changes to our laws in the next couple of weeks to allow the gardaí to use that evidence and go through that evidence and identify the people who are involved in these actions and we are going to get them.”

Varadkar also claimed the riots prove the need for “incitement to hate legislation” which was delayed after fierce objections earlier this year.

If the Irish Parliament passes the Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022, Irish citizens who are caught in possession of “hate speech” may face up to five years in prison unless they can prove in court they did not have hateful intent. “Hate” is not defined in the bill.

“I think it’s now very obvious to anyone who might have doubted it that our incitement to hatred legislation is just not up to date. It’s not up to date for the social media age. And we need that legislation through, we need it through within a matter of weeks,” Varadkar said last week, according to Irish publication The Journal.

“Because it’s not just the [social media] platforms that have responsibility here and they do. There’s also the individuals who post messages and images online that stir up hatred and violence and we need to be able to use laws to go after them individually as well,” he added.

The New York Times is one of several mainstream news outlets blaming the “far-Right” for the riots. But the publication also cited a “think tank” called the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) which claims that those who opposed lockdowns and forced vaccinations are responsible:

Far-right ideology has grown in Ireland because of social media and messaging platforms, said Ciarán O’Connor, a senior analyst with the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, a think tank that researches online hate and disinformation. Studying 13 million posts on 12 online platforms, the researchers found that groups that originally shared views against vaccinations and Covid-19 lockdowns had evolved to target refugees, asylum seekers and other minority groups.

ISD is funded by George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Omidyar Group and others. It also receives funding from governmental organizations in several countries, including the US State Department and Department of Homeland Security. It is also funded by tech giants such as Google, Facebook, YouTube, Microsoft and others.

ISD and its partner, CASM Technology, conduct research using CASM’s machine-learning technology which scours the internet for challenges to globalist narratives such as the Russo-Ukraine war, the COVID-19 vaccines, election interference and climate change alarmism. Throughout 2020, CASM boasts, it worked with ISD to conduct research supported by the Gates Foundation to root out “anti-vaccine disinformation.”

The two globalist organizations also conduct “fact-checks” on unapproved statements which they then pass on to journalists to use for their own propaganda purposes. There does not appear to be any oversight ensuring that ISD/CASM are not fishing only from Left-leaning pools.

CASM uses its AI technology to map out dissenting users and posts across social media and create maps of their networks. The technology also anticipates what challenges will come from where and to which narrative.

ISD then reports this information to authorities in any one of the ten countries it works with, as well as various media outlets.

According to the Daily Caller, the State Department confirmed it funded a project by ISD to study “Russian disinformation tactics” on Wikipedia.
