Well said. Not fashionable to agree with what a sitting Taoiseach says but anyway.

Red scare. The commies are coming. Meanwhile, hospital overcrowding, trolleys, immigration circa Kilkenny numbers annually, blah blah.

True . Going to vote for Connolly as I like her principles etc but she’s so naive on this issue. You can’t sit down and have a chat with Russia. European rearmament is the only way.

There is ‘naivety’ in Ireland that if we whine about this threat far away on the other side of the continent , the public will get distracted by this bullshit of defense spending than spending on public infrastructure, housing and healthcare.
We start walkin and talkin like we are in NATO, yea Russia might do the odd cyber or aerial interference , if we shut the fuck up about as if we are about to go to war, I doubt Russia will give a shit about an island far far away with no actual capability for them to invade

Hmmm… not to play the old whataboutism, but I would be more or at least equally worried that events in the USA are seen with naivety….

He’s right people are naive about Russia and the threat they pose to Ireland especially with Pro-Russian fools like Catherine Connolly who wants us to be neutral and not increase defence spending for our military.

There is, it’s just a shame no one is going to do anything about it

He isn’t wrong. Alot of people have no idea the true threat of Russia, it isn’t their military, nor is it promoting communism, it’s promoting the far right. They’ve been funding agitators all over the west for 2 decades now, multiple far right parties and politicians have been found to have russian funding, trumps elections are well known to have had help promoting him with russian bot farms, they had a hand in pushing Brexit, frances and germanies far right parties have both been discovered to have funding from them. Russia isn’t trying to conquer most of us, they are trying to destabilize us.

Hasn’t our leadership been lazy with our defense and even gutting it?

If anything there is very hard nosed realism. We essentially don’t have an armed forces because for UK & USA to allow Russians to fly over Ireland and run patrols around the Irish Sea is intolerable to them. They also have to fly around the Scandinavians who also have excellent airforces

There are six counties occupied by a country assisting a genocide in israel.
The french have taken charge of a Russian vessel, part of the shadow fleet. A Russian drone was shot down earlier today by the Dutch over Poland. It’s all happening and we are lucky to be on the western edge of Europe and not in the thick of it.

There is a level of “naivety” in Ireland about the threat the EU and NATO poses to peace in Europe.

The only reason anyone would attack us is because we let American weapons and weapons through used to comment genocide. Things we’re not meant to do and that arsehole has the power to stop in an evening’s work but won’t
