Over the last few years Ireland decided it was sick of being the Catholic Country it was famous for being.
It hasn’t worked out so well:
There’s just 175 people in Dundrum, a village that has been there for centuries. But the government just announced—with no consultation, no discussion, no appeal—that they are moving 280 migrants into the town. That’s nearly going to triple the population overnight.
The Irish state broadcaster tried to find a single resident in Coolock who supports this scheme; they couldn’t find one. But the government is dead-set on it.
Don’t worry Ireland, when you’ve survived your suicide attempt the Church will still be there to rebuild civilization as it always has.
Update Here is the tweet for those of you who don’t want to click the link:
Why is Ireland destroying itself?
We're in Ireland studying their immigration policy. It’s like looking at a car crash—it’s terrible, but we can’t stop from staring.
The government here has gone mad. It’s bringing in hundreds of thousands of migrants.
What’s most interesting thing about this self destruction that is taking place in Ireland, and Canada and England, and France and now the US is that it is all self inflicted.
My review of the movie Michael Collins staring Liam Neeson in the title role is available at Amazon.com here.
Always remember with movies like this that they are not a substitute for the actual history. If you want history , read history, if you want movies watch movies.
