In a tradition dating back more than 300 years, towering pyres have been lit every July in Northern Ireland to mark the Battle of the Boyne, which effectively cemented Protestant rule.
They’re held in loyalist neighborhoods – communities that strongly support the union with the United Kingdom – and often carry a political message, with effigies of the pope, the Republic of Ireland’s flag and other symbols of Catholicism and Irish nationalism being burned in the past.
But this year, in the village of Moygashel, County Tyrone, the flames found a new target.
A replica mosque, with a figure holding what appeared to be an ISIS flag and banners on the tower reading “Secure our borders” and “End the threat of radical Islam,” was burned on Thursday night.
It marked a further departure from the traditional Eleventh Night bonfires, lit in mainly working-class Protestant neighborhoods on the eve of parades celebrating King William III’s 1690 victory over the Catholic King James II.
“Had the bonfire not been lit, police would have secured the site and removed the offending material and seized it as evidence,” Police Service of Northern Ireland Chief Superintendent Norman Haslett said in a statement. “Hate crime has no place in our society and will not be tolerated.”

now they burn an effigy of a mosque (not even an image of the profit) and they get arrested!
Anarcho-tyranny - The State is focused on protecting the enemies of the State, and seeks to stomp on the decent citizens.
Apparently it is a hate crime to burn muslim stuff but its not a hate crime to burn Catholic stuff.
Okey dokey...
Protestant rule.
Woo Hoo
muslim roast
Then there’s that Christmas favorite , roasting muslims on an open fire
Protestants and Catholics are joining together to save themselves from the horrors of living in a Muslim controlled country. Let’s pray it is not too late.prayers up.
Sharia is creeping into the system. It is already effectively illegal to offend Moslems and quasi illegal to notice Moslem depredations against English women. Islamic political control of the cities is already a reality and many government officials are Moslem and many persons in Labour Party leadership even of Farage’s party.
I suspect absent armed rebellion and the Army either joining or sitting out, it is too late.
Works for me!
👍👍👍👍🙂
GOOD. Civilized humans should unite against barbarians who pre-meditate murdering them.
“Hate crime has no place in our society and will not be tolerated.”
…gotcha. Except when the sandal is on the other foot.
Here's your problem: when the government protects the violent invaders, your #1 problem is the government.
It is NOT a "Hate Crime" to protect yourself, your family, loved ones and especially children from violent, rapist, muslim men whom the government is willfully settling in your home country, state, living space and neighborhood.
Vigilantism is sure to arise, as it has and is in Ireland.
Burn, Baby, Burn.
"There has been a significant escalation in arson attacks and fires targeting properties earmarked for asylum seekers and refugees in Ireland since 2018. Reports document at least 38 arson attacks on occupied and proposed accommodation centers, as well as makeshift camps, with a sharp increase in incidents occurring from 2023 through 2025."
Muslims roasting on an open fire
The Koran flushing down the loo...
Time to begin stopping the “Creep”. Someone thinks they are special & need to be shown that they are NOT.
“Hate crime has no place in our society and will not be tolerated.”
