I've already compared it to the riots than span-off from the BLM protests, and it's similar in that neither achieved anything, were needlessly destructive, and only caused hurt.

…some excellent points this guy is making…/…opening up discussion of possible escalating causes and contributions etc…/…rather than closing down any factors that should openly be discussed…which can become accusations and hostilities, rather than what they should be when we consider any factors that can lead up to the heightened feeling in Dublin recently…

A 50-year-old man has been charged with the attempted murder of three children and with causing serious harm to a care worker at Dublin’s Parnell Square last month.

A five-year-old girl remains in hospital following the stabbing. The two other children were released from hospital while a crèche worker was also seriously injured during the incident.

Riad Bouchaker, of no fixed abode, appeared before Judge Brian Smyth at Dublin District Court on Thursday afternoon in relation to an incident at Parnell Square East on November 23rd.

Counsel for the defendant said Arabic is his client’s primary language, and an interpreter was present.

The media has also been directed not to report the identity of Mr Bouchaker's legal team due to "safety concerns", and the order was continued in court on Thursday.
