Rineanna of course.
Cork Airport
Could be Shannon too….
Knock?
Who’s?
Erm, the post is tagged ‘Shannon airport’, so my guess is Shannon airport.
Hopefully the planes are on their way to help the Kurds, but given the prejudices of this eejit I’m sure he feels they should be left to die.

This is a post about planes. No mention of Kurdistan, nor Israel nor Gaza. Even if they are going to help Kurds, how does that relate to the tweet, which shows he believes Israel’s campaign in Gaza included war crimes ( (also Amnesty’s belief – http://bit.ly/1tb0kql). The tweet indicates a prejudice towards not killing children, if anything.
It’s just a pre-emptive strike by shitferbrains. He learned that technique from his Israeli pals. The best form of defence is to strike early and often.
But Shannon is a mixed use airport as is Dublin & cork, sure the first plane ever to put it’s wheels down in Shannon was a military aircraft!!
Wayne, shut-up and grab a pitch fork! There is no time for thinking!
hopefully they’ll help the kurds…. the same kurdish people who are expendable when NATO member ally has a problem with them on the Turkish side of an arbitrary line….
and hopefully they’re not carrying any nasty surprises for civilians… cos some of the shitferbrains around here seem to have quickly forgotten the horrible deaths of Iraqi and Afghan civilians going about their business of attending a wedding or lying in a hospital, only to be interrupted by one of America’s leading exports fast moving explosives.
Yeah Sam. Better to be Irish and do nothing, thereby doing nothing wrong.
Are you being intentionally dense? Do you have any clue as to the history of international humanitarian work carried out by members of the Irish Defence Forces, and Irish civilians in the UN agencies and NGOs?
The DF most certainly. The others, not so much. BTW, careful or you’ll end up with one arm longer than the other from patting yourself on the back.
As I thought. Clueless. True to form anyway, I’ll have to give you that.
Why is this still a thing?
I had serious problems with it when we were an accessory to the United States’ illegal invasion of Iraq by allowing them to refuel their planes here (unlike, for example, Austria which banned us overflights to Iraq) and when the CIA were using the airport as part of its so called extraordinary rendition (i.e. kidnap torture) programme. But now the US is out of Iraq and the CIA is no longer carrying out kidnap-torture I don’t see a reason why anyone would oppose US use of Shannon.
Shannon. where do I collect my prize.
Considering C-130/L-100 family aircraft are in use all over the world by military and civil operators, it could be basically anywhere.
There is also a decent chance these aircraft are carrying humanitarian aid to West Africa.
ah no, why would you think that? when there are so many evil Americans/Israelis/[insert fave oppressor here] plotting to murder innocents all over the world…
