Muslim Irish Man Slams "Idiots" For Spreading Fears About Islam

23 April - 58 mins
Podcast Series Opinions Matter with Adrian & Jeremy

Omar, an Irish-born Muslim with Iraqi parents, got onto Adrian and Jeremy after seeing a headline warning that “Islamist terrorism” is a significant concern for Ireland — and he says it’s pure scaremongering that only fuels Islamophobia.

Should reports like this name a religion at all… or should it simply be called “terrorism” without tarring ordinary Muslims with the same brush?

From callers quoting crime and terror “stats”, to others admitting they profile people on planes and at gigs, the debate turns fierce fast — with rows about immigration, radicalisation, “thought police”, and how quickly we forget Ireland’s own history of being labelled terrorists abroad.
