IRISH UPRISING! — Irish People Riot & Burn After Children Stabbed | Breitbart

Ireland is still reeling after multiple people, including children, were stabbed near a school in Dublin, Ireland, on Thursday.

On Thursday, riots erupted in the Irish capital of Dublin following a knife attack that wounded five people, including three children. Irish journalist John McGuirk identified the suspected assailant as “an Algerian national in his 50s who came to Ireland several decades ago.”

Could former UFC champion and outspoken Irish patriot Conor McGregor be preparing to step on the political stage? Friday on X, formerly Twitter, McGregor threw down the gauntlet and promised to fix what ails his home country.

“There will be change in Ireland, mark my words. The change needed,” McGregor wrote as part of a lengthier post.

McGregor condemned the riots but also acknowledged the rioters’ concerns.

“Last nights scenes achieved nothing toward fixing the issues we face. I do understand frustrations however, and I do understand a move must be made to ensure the change we need is ushered in. And fast!” he wrote.

“I am in the process of arranging. Believe me I am way more tactical and I have backing,” he added.

That last line undoubtedly raised eyebrows. At minimum, it raised the question of whether McGregor might attempt to follow the likes of Milei and former U.S. President Donald Trump as celebrity outsiders-turned-populist leaders.

McGregor then cited immigrant violence against Irish citizens as the context for his promised change.

“In the last month, innocent children stabbed leaving school. Ashling Murphy murdered. Two Sligo men decapitated,” the former UFC champion wrote.

Last week, an Irish court convicted Jozef Puska, a 33-year-old Slovak national, of murdering Ashling Murphy, a 23-year-old Irish teacher, in January 2022.

Meanwhile, motivated by intense hatred of homosexuals, an Iraqi-Kurdish national named Yousef Palani, who arrived in Ireland in 2006, decapitated two gay men in Sligo, Ireland, in April 2022.

“This,” according to McGregor “is NOT Ireland’s future!”

“If they do not act soon with their plan of action to ensure Ireland’s safety, I will,” he added.
