Renmore Barracks
Renmore Barracks Irish police said Friday they were investigating a potential terrorism motive in an attack on a chaplain at an army barracks in County Galway.
Police said the army chaplain was approached by a young person outside Renmore Barracks in western Ireland and was stabbed a number of times Thursday morning.
The Catholic priest, who is in his 50s, was rushed to a hospital and was treated for injuries that were serious but not life-threatening.The Defense Forces said
shots were fired by on-duty personnel after the chaplain was attacked, and a male teenager was quickly detained at the scene. The suspect was being questioned in detention at a police station.
Police said "one line of inquiry is
to establish if this attack had a terrorism motivation." They added that the incident was not believed to be "part of a wider conspiracy.""News of the assault on a Catholic priest, who is presently serving as chaplain to the Irish Defence Forces in Galway, is deeply shocking and upsetting," said Bishop Michael Duignan in a statement.
Irish premier Simon Harris described the incident as "shocking." Authorities condemned the attack.
Comment: Considering the brewing discontent over the establishment's weaponised mass migration, which has also boiled over into mass protests, and riots, sparked by a number of incidents - including the proposed construction of a migrant centre, as well as the murder of 3 young girls - the investigators speculation that this could be 'terror related' is potentially provocative, and so one would hope that they have reasonable suspicion to make such a statement.
Whilst weaponised mass migration is indeed contributing to the surge in crimes of various kinds, it must also be noted that not all of these 'random' attacks, which are happening across much of the planet, are committed by migrants. Some of the criminals were also known to the authorities.
Notably, there have been at least two other attacks against religious figures in recent months, one in Australia, and one in the US; neither of them were found to be 'terror related':
