IAWM / SWP supports Hamas and Hezbollah
IAWM protests with RIRA against Tony Blair Richard Boyd Barrett is quoted by Al Qaeda |
Oddly, they are not Muslims. Rather, they are a group of deluded dhimmis who think the jihad killing around the world somehow fits in with their absurd plans for communist revolution.

Socialist Worker, no.212,
26 Nov 2003, front page,
describes the
communist butchers of North Vietnam
as a "heroic resistance".
Some "anti-war" people these are.

"Freedom for Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan.
End the Occupation. Victory to resistance".
Councillor Brid Smith of
"People Before Profit" (*)
carries an SWP placard openly supporting the jihad resistance in
Iraq, Israel and Afghanistan.

(*) A better name would be "Prostrate Before the Prophet".

"SOLIDARITY WITH THE RESISTANCE"
Socialist Worker
no.262, 8 Aug 2006.
Open support by the SWP
for the violent, anti-semitic, civilian-targeting, gay-hating,
atheist-hating,
Jew-hating,
Islamic religious fundamentalist terrorist group
Hizbollah
(for there is no other "resistance" to
Israel's 2006 attack on Hizbollah in Lebanon,
the Lebanese government having wisely chosen to sit it out).
Inside the issue,
Richard Boyd Barrett
writes explicitly opposing the disarming of Hizbollah.
"a key part of our task is to resist calls for a western force or Irish troops
to be sent into Lebanon to disarm Hizbollah.
... the people of Iraq, Palestine and Lebanon have the right to resist
colonial aggression and occupation",
says this "anti-war" person.
Another article by some
useful idiot
says:
"We support Hamas and Hizbollah in their courageous stand against imperialism".
Hizbollah, of course, are an agent of Iranian imperialism,
while Hamas want to cleanse Israel of all Jews.
They are not fighting "against imperialism".
They are fighting for jihad.
The SWP editorial
openly supports Hezbollah.
"we are happy to join the Arab masses in expressing our solidarity with the fighters of Hizbollah
and our hope is that they succeed in defeating the Israeli assault on Lebanon."
Despite this disgraceful support for violent groups, the SWP
are still welcome at "anti-war" marches.
At
this "anti-war" march in Galway, Aug 2006,
a woman actually holds up this issue
supporting Hamas and Hizbollah.
That looks like the
gay rights flag
behind her,
as she supports gay-murdering religious fascists.
Niamh McDonald of the SWP supports Hamas, 9 Jan 2011.
"Hamas are the only group that are fighting for freedom", she absurdly says,
as if Hamas are fighting for any concept other than jihad and sharia.
She says "we look for a secular free state where all religions ethnicities and cultures can live together peacefully",
while ignoring the fact that such a place already exists.
It is called Israel.
She is attacking the only secular free state in the region,
and supporting religious fascists
who believe in brutal sharia law.
Hamas would kill to stop a secular state.
The IAWM's heroes,
the Shia fundamentalist militias of Iraq,
stone 90 young people to death for having tight jeans and "Emo" haircuts, Feb-Mar 2012.
Do the IAWM know anything about the kind of people they associate with?
Richard Boyd Barrett
and an anti-Israel mob
chant outside the Israeli Embassy, Dublin, 8 June 2010.
How pathetic to support totalitarians against a democracy.

"Freedom for Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan.
End the Occupation. Victory to resistance".
Placard in open support of the jihad resistance in Iraq, Israel
and Afghanistan, carried by Richard Boyd Barrett's own party,
as they blame Blair for the
tens of thousands killed by the jihadis.
Nauseating hypocrisy.

"Victory" to the "resistance" that is causing the genocide in Iraq
and Afghanistan.
And lock up anyone who is trying to stop it.
Even better, lock them up for the crimes of the "resistance".
From here.

And of course, no one even notices or cares that these alleged "anti-war" people
are hanging out with
the people that bombed Omagh
and more recently have
tried to start the Ulster war again.

Such hypocrites these "anti-war" types are.


An editorial by Bin Laden in the same issue.

Another article in the same issue tells jihadis how to carry out
random attacks on civilians
in western cities.
The article claims that if you slaughter innocents, a being called "Allah"
will welcome you into a place called "paradise".
No evidence for these ludicrous claims is ever presented.
Richard Boyd Barrett
and his jihad loving groups
are demolished.
Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council meeting, 11 Oct 2010.
Boyd Barrett is challenged to condemn Hamas, Hezbollah, the Iraqi insurgents
and the Taliban.
He declines to condemn them.

I broke the story here in Oct 2010.
The Irish Times prints it in May 2011.
Hey, where's my acknowledgement!
"The self-styled Irish Anti-War Movement ... is not a peace organisation. ... It is not so much an anti-war movement as a strident anti-American one. Rather than an organisation which wishes to see the peaceful resolution of conflicts around the world through discussion and compromise, it is a collection of misty-eyed old Soviet Union sympathisers who have now befriended Islamic fundamentalists."

in the Dail,
4 October 2007.
"This position of the far-left to defend Islamic extremists demonstrates a cognitive dissonance of an unbridled magnitude.
As a secular Muslim Arab who has lived my entire life in the Middle East and North Africa, I find the level of convergence of the far-left in the West and the Islamists (who represent a far-right ideology) both perplexing and alarming.
...
Do the extreme left have any idea what the goals of the Islamists are?
As someone who stands for liberal views and stands against Islamists and their extremist ideology, I was very surprised to learn that the Islamists’ biggest defenders weren’t the Arab and Muslim world, but are, in fact, the far-left Westerners and Israelis who claim to be liberal. In the course of publishing my personal blog, I have been viciously attacked on numerous occasions by far-leftists in the United States, Europe and even Israel
...
My position as an Arab who lives in the Arab world and deals with the issues I write about on a daily basis was not enough to convince these attackers that I was in a better position in truly knowing what is happening in the Arab world, despite the fact that most of them live thousands of miles away from the Arab world and do not speak Arabic. Most of them seem to be under the impression that Islamist acts of terror against the West and Israel only occur because of Western imperialism or support for Israel, when in fact the Islamists have been committing terrorist acts against the Arab world for centuries. ... it has nothing to do with Western imperialism, but, in fact, has to do with Islamist imperialism."

Omar Dakhane, 7 Mar 2012, is baffled by Islamism-supporting left-wing extremists like Richard Boyd Barrett and the IAWM.
