Lasair Dhearg ☭ with a statement on racist violence after the brutal attack in Kinnaird Avenue.

9-June-2026
Last night a man was attacked in Kinnaird Avenue in North Belfast and seriously injured by another man wielding a knife in a sickening and barbaric attack. Only for the intervention of locals, who put themselves at risk of significant harm to save another human being, the victim could have died. We understand that he is now in hospital in a critical condition.

The individual who carried out this mindless act was not here 'illegally', and he was not ‘undocumented’ but had been granted leave to remain by the British ‘Home Office’. This has become an intense focus for many in the hours since, with many false rumours circulating on social media about the age of the victim who, it is understood, is an older adult male. If the attacker was white, you can be guaranteed that there would be fewer comments and much less speculation.

This barbaric attack now reinforces the already sickening knife crime figures across both failed states in Ireland.

Between 2019 and 2023 alone, there were a total of 901 convictions for the possession of a knife in the Six Counties. 3,500 arrests have also taken place for ‘homicides, attempted murders and serious assaults’. The Twenty Six Counties fares no better, where over a ten year period since 2015 an average of one person per month has been murdered with a knife.

The extreme majority of these crimes have been carried out by white men.

Unionist gangs are now calling on people throughout the Six Counties to take to the streets tonight to ‘show their anger’. These calls are nothing but pure sectarianism, as many of the protests are being directed to local Sinn Féin constituency offices in what is clearly an attempt to link any increase in migration to ‘the Catholics’.
 
If you are one of the many individuals out there that have stated this sickening attempt at ‘beheading’ has never happened before, you are either ignorant to the facts or telling deliberate lies. We remind you of that other Unionist gang, the Shankill Butchers, that wreaked havoc in the 1970s and 80s. Most of their victims were literally butchered with many decapitated. Cromwell's armies beheaded thousands, then during the 1798 Rebellion thousands were executed and their heads placed on pikes to spread fear throughout the country.

We remind you also of Unionist John White, friend of Johnny Adair, and responsible for two of the most sickening deaths Ireland witnessed during the recent conflict, when he butchered to death Irene Andrews and Paddy Wilson in a frenzied attack where he beheaded one and nearly the other. He was a white man. The Shankill Butchers were white men.

Unfortunately, last night's tragic attack is now completely overshadowed by the intentions of mindless bigots who want to utilise it for their own self-interests.

Those taking to the streets won't care about our history but will stoke up tension and spread fear amongst the many migrants that have made themselves integral members of our communities.

Many of those protests will be organised and attended by known thugs and women abusers who utilise social media to massage their own egos and enhance their macho persona. They will say that they want to ‘protect women and kids’ when it is well known that they themselves are, or associate with and support, the abusers of women and children. Countless members of their ranks have been exposed in recent years and months as abusers.

These are the types of people now organising protests across the Six Counties to ‘bring the place to a standstill’ yet have failed to do just that for the 67 women across Ireland that have been murdered since 2020, the vast majority of which were killed by men known to the victims and almost exclusively white.

When will Ireland be brought to a standstill for them?

No Standstill For The 67 Women Killed By White Men

Lasair Dhearg ☭ statement on Sinn Féin attending the White House on St Patrick’s Day.


It will come as no surprise to any Irish Republicans or Anti-Imperialists that Sinn Féin announced this week that they are once again going to wine and dine at the White House on St. Patrick’s Day with Genocide Joe Biden.

As the genocide in Palestine continues, its people have repeatedly called for a boycott of anything or anyone providing support to Zionism. Despite this, Sinn Féin have not only ignored, but at times openly opposed these efforts, and in an attempt to impress the US administration, they will now kneel before them in the mansion of Yank imperialism. This, whilst more than 25,000 people have been murdered by Zionists using American supplied weaponry such as the F-16 and F-35 fighter jets that have flattened Gaza. At the same time thousands of men, women and children still remain dead or dying under the rubble of the buildings destroyed by missiles supplied by the people Sinn Féin wish to call friends.

As justification Sinn Féin endlessly repeat the claim that they are talking with the leadership in the Occupied Territories. They are trying to pull the wool over people’s eyes. The so-called 'leadership' that Sinn Féin are in contact with is the Palestinian Authority - lap dogs for the Zionist regime, despised by many in Palestine almost as much as the Zionist occupiers themselves. They are enabling genocide in Gaza by continuing to support the treacherous Oslo accords and the two-state apartheid system that it calls to implement. This is the same Palestinian Authority that on a daily basis shoots its own people for daring to stand up against the Zionist regime, as demonstrated last August when they murdered Palestinians in a refugee camp who rose up. Furthermore, it is the same Palestinian Authority who murdered those protesting against the bombing of a hospital in Gaza by Zionist occupying forces and there are countless other examples.
 
In the same way, Sinn Féin now not only accept but openly support the British occupation here in the Six Counties which was cemented when they signed up to the Good Friday Agreement in 1998. Just as the Palestinian Authority interns its citizens on behalf of the Zionist regime, former Republicans in Sinn Féin actively participate in and support the internment and harassment of Irish Republicans in service to the British occupiers.

The decision of Sinn Féin to attempt to disingenuously spin this decision as being justified by their contact with Palestinian leaders is remarkably similar to the narrative they have spun when they shook hands with Charles Windsor, when they welcomed his mother with open arms or any number of countless acts of betrayal against the revolutionary republican struggle over the years - "trust us, we know best".

Palestinian revolutionary Ghassan Kanafani remarked once that Palestinians talking to the Zionist occupier was the equivalent of a conversation between “the sword and the neck” and that he had no recollection of talks “between a colonist case and a national liberation movement”. Perhaps more aptly, he said: 

Imperialism has laid its body over the world, the head in Eastern Asia, the heart in the Middle East, its arteries reaching Africa and Latin America. Wherever you strike it, you damage it, and you serve the World Revolution.

Sinn Féin would do well to remember these words when they stand in Washington D.C. this St. Patrick’s Day.

Conversation Between Sword And Neck

Lasair Dhearg ☭ News headlines in recent days have attempted to manipulate the minds of the masses into thinking that all is not well in Cuba.


Organised by the usual suspects, financially funded and supported by the US Imperialist regime, small numbers of counter-revolutionaries assembled in cities across Cuba, making spurious demands for ‘freedom’ and ‘vaccines’.
 

The foreign press and world media were notified in advance, in what was clearly another step in the continuing attempts to destabilise Cuba and the Revolution.

Lasair Dhearg’s Pádraic MacCoitir said:

The US regime hoped that, with small numbers of loyal subjects coming out onto the street, they would provoke thousands more to join them. Those thousands, carrying Cuban flags and red banners, instead mobilised and marched to face down the counter-revolutionaries in a true testament of support for the ongoing efforts of the revolution.

Pádraic MacCoitir

President Biden has continued with the efforts of previous US Presidents to embargo Cuba under an economic blockade which seeks to starve its people into capitulation. The Cuban people have instead organised under the might of Socialism and created a health system that is the envy of nations across the globe.

Since the establishment of a democratic revolution the people in Cuba have endured years of hostility from the US and their allies. Many times they’ve defended the country against counter revolutionary elements and have always prevailed.

In recent days Biden and his cronies have once again tried to take on the Cubans using Covid as an excuse. None of us will be fooled as a small number take to the streets, despite what western media may report. Those of us who see what happens in Cuba will continue to support the revolution.

US attempts to destroy the Cuban revolution have failed time and time again. The resolve of the Cuban people has been tested, and they have won.
