More details have emerged about the terrorist attack on Irish Defence Forces chaplain Fr. Paul Murphy.
According reports in the mainstream media, the terrorist waited outside the army barracks in Galway. He then approached Fr. Murphy’s car. Fr. Murphy rolled his window down, at this point the terrorist started stabbing him with a knife.
Fr. Murphy drove in through the gates then with the terrorist clinging to the car and swinging his knife at the priest.
It has been said that the terrorist was shouting about Ireland’s peacekeeping missions abroad, particularly in the Muslim country of Mali. The terrorist is believed to have been shouting other phrases also.
Soldiers fired warning shots into the air in order to warn the terrorist.
They eventually subdued the terrorist.
A search of his home revealed ‘extremist literature’ and it is believed that he was ‘radicalised online’.
Fr. Murphy is currently in hospital recovering from surgery, according to a post that he made on Facebook.
Politicians, so accustomed to bashing the church and priests, have responded in bizarre and strange fashion.
Local politician Alan Cheevers bizarrely linked the terror attack to ‘knife crime’ amongst teenagers, as if Fr. Murphy was a drill rapper caught in a feud. Notorious English born politician Elisa O’Donovan launched a deranged attack on priests in general, calling them ‘single and childless men’. Meanwhile, very few politicians have condemned the attack and most who have have refused to mention that a Catholic priest was involved.
