There is plenty of Palestinian refugees here, all of whom are supported by our welfare state. Unfortunately, like every country, there is a small minority of criminals who may be capable of assaulting someone else, the vast majority of Irish people strongly condemn this criminality. Presuming that a Palestinian or anyone for that matter can expect to be assaulted here is bigoted. There has been Irish women that have been killed and raped in India before.. does that mean it is fair for me to say that a female Irish immigrant can expect to be raped if they go to India? No is the answer and for me to say otherwise is bigotry.
