Paddystinianism

A breakdown of the mindvirus besetting half of our nation.

One of the hardest things to do while writing about a topic or explaining a point of view is to prevent your words from splitting the reader or listener into two camps. My previous article taking apart the Zionists of Israel caused a bit of a stir. Some of my fellow writers and friends think I went full Paddystinian. I will attempt to settle the boat here to put ye all at ease. Nobody should be thinking you have 100 percent solved the problem of a certain foreign conflict by completely railing on one side of it, no matter how much they deserve the critique. True, I do not see the state of Israel as legitimate nor do I see a pathway to accepting it for the sake of moving on. The fact remains, in my head at least, that the people occupying that state are not worthy of it. They have behaved so despicably evil that I will even go as far as to say the entire Israel project needs to be dismantled by cooler heads and a demilitarised, denationalised zone established in its place. Think along the line of the Antarctic Treaty. These are just my thoughts on it. Jesus, Stephen doesn’t that still make you a Paddystinian? No, not even close.

Paddystinains are advocates for the total victory of Islam over all others in Palestine. I am very much so not a supporter of Islam and my portfolio of activism and writings is a testament to that. If anything I would be for a total Christian revival and crusade to take the holy land back from both of those savage tribes. No, all jokes aside, rather than simply picking other side of a conflict where there is a clear aggressor, I choose to stay clear of supporting terrorists who have attacked civilian targets for decades on end. I am absolutely a supporter of the idea of Palestianian Nationalism and resistance but I cannot bring myself to identify with head choppers, kidnappers and rapists. The way that Islamists in the Middle East treat the bodies of their victims, howling like dogs in the public square as their children clap and chant while rape and mutilation takes place is equally as vile and repulsive to me as any action of the Zionists. As soon as a child sees that and feels excited about it because daddy told him to, he is lost forever to the most evil impulses of the human condition. Here in Ireland, briefly, both Catholic and Protestant communities in the North walked that path. Alive today is an entire generation of middled aged men and women who have murder as a preset on the dial. We will be extremely lucky to make it past that generations dying gasps without some form of reignition of that conflict and events in the Middle East could very well be the spark that kicks of problems here again. You see our identity as a nation who took on the British empire is intrinsically linked up with the cause of others who fought against them too. It was the Zionists after all who presided over the partitioning of this country as too did they preside over the absolute farce that is the Israel Project. Through that common cause a seriously strong bond has been formed between Palestinian resistance movements and our very own Nationalist cause in the north but sadly both movements have been ideologically neutered by international socialism.

Paddystinians standing shoulder to shoulder with Musa Dogan, wanted in his home country for terrorism.

Reluctantly, I stop short of standing out with the Paddystinians at certain demonstrations that I personally feel are legitimate feats of activism. Protests at the Israeli and US embassies, Shannon airport etc are all good incentives in my eyes. But how can I share a space with people that put Palestine first in their minds over Ireland? How can they decry Israeli settlements there and champion Islamic settlements here? How can I throw my weight behind people who call me a racist for doing here what Palestinians do over there? I can’t. Further more, as mentioned above, international socialist doctrine has neutered these wayward students, placing them under the stewardship of wanted terrorists like a Musa Dogan who has been central to their organising structure. Dogan is a man who attempted to set up a white guilt commie/migrant camp in the middle of a working class Dublin City neighbourhood and proceeded to attack locals with metal bars. These same groups have organised counter demonstrations against Irelands working class Nationalists, who almost exclusively support Palestine or have no interest in the conflict at all, and waved Palestinian flags against us as if we have anything got to do with the hardship faced by Palestine. As if we are to blame. The attempt to paint us as far right Zionist supporters was a direct import from the UK through the British socialist structure that dominates the Irish scene. Yes, Irish socialists and British socialists are two peas in a pod for those that didn’t know and one of their goals, on behalf of the British establishment, was to split Irelands patriots North and South. By attempting to label us all as far right and then counter protesting us with flags such as the Palestinian flag or the various Socialist Republican flags, the left of this country attempted to place us at odds with our own people and past. We resolutely refused to rise to this provocation. Although a handful of handicaps did go to Belfast with Irish flags to march with the Zionist loyalists, this attempt to hijack the nationalist right of the south ultimately failed as the people behind the stunt were swiftly ostracised. We know who we are and it’s not a nation of subservient Brit loving Zionists.

Zionist attempt to split Irelands Nationalists North and South

We are unfortunately a very naïve people. I am a good example of that meself but I think it is part of our nature and why the Irish are so loved. We want what’s best and what’s simple. The overly complex and sinister nature of hardened political movements is not our game to play. We have a long standing cause here at home. 32 counties back as one. Better quality of life for the Irish people. Preservation of the Irish franchise. We are best remaining neutral from foreign conflicts, instead ridiculing them when their salespeople appear on our streets. This is actually where the term Paddystinian originated. It wasn’t the Zionist supporters at all who came up with it, it was us in the nationalist movement who tried to tell our brothers and sisters that they are ignoring their own peoples fight here at home. That ultimately is what a Paddystinian is, a xenophile who puts another country ahead of his own. Palestine has a place in my heart. As it’s ancient people are displaced I remember what happened here at home and how if we accept it anywhere else, we will accept it here. Speak up by all means but do not go full Paddystinian. Do not allow foreign interest groups to drain you of your national zeal. You are needed here at home.
