OSAMA bin Laden was urged by a fellow leading al-Qa’ida member to send a message to the Irish people to urge them to convert to Islam.

New files removed from Bin Laden‘s compound reveal how Ireland was occupying the mind of top al-Qa’ida leaders.

Adam Gadahn, al-Qa’ida’s American-born spin doctor, proposed an ambitious new front in the global jihad in January of last year.

He called for the group to “prepare a message for the Irish” who he said tended to be sympathetic to the cause of the Palestinians.

He also noted “the increasing anger in Ireland towards the Catholic Church” after “sex scandals and others” and urged the group to persuade the disenchanted to turn to Islam rather than secularism.

Being “historically the prominent enemies of the Jews”, Mr Gadahn said, Catholics offered “fertile ground”.

Militant

Ibrahim Michael Noonan from Co Waterford, who is the first Irish man to become an Imam, told the Irish Independent last night he had become aware of a small, militant element of Islam creeping into the country and called for increased vigilance.

  1. I agree about the Irish. Catholics are very anti-semitic – I have personally had more experience of that than I would have liked! They voted for an anti-semitic President, a small country with a very large proportion who are anti-semitic and anti-Israel, and where islam and mozlems have spread like wild-fire. The Irish Republicans support the “Palestinians” and have assisted them on terror against Israel. However once, the Irish find out they may as well not have changed religion as the mullahs are at least as cruel as paedophile priests, I would hope they would resist.
    I don’t think they will. Farewell Tara and the long brave history and beautiful mythology of the Irish.

  2. As an American, I’m fine with the Irish. They have resisted many a people over the centuries and survived. Why they would bring this upon themselves is a mystery to me. If they let it happen, they will get what they deserve. Whatever complaints they had about the English will be the good old days.
