No as our military strength is not enough to manage any retaliation. Ireland should never be an aggressor.
@9ZHCLGP2wks2W
No, don’t assassinate but do remove them from the country immediately and report to their country of origin legal system
@9ZC5WXB3wks3W
Ireland don't have the means to defend their own coast or airspace so this is just a stupid question
@9ZBS5L43wks3W
If they are in a different country then I do not see why we should make it our issue unless they are planning on attacking us and if they were the best plan would be to put defence plans in place.
@9ZBLC7D3wks3W
nterpol should take responsibility for investigating and arresting terrorist suspects in collaboration with the Irish equivalent.( I agree with this statement)
@9Z9NPFV3wks3W
If there is hard evidence the person will commit the attack OR has done somthing similar in the past
@9ZDK6S23wks3W
Don’t bother with other countries buisness and people let them decide what to do with them just don’t open your arms to these people
@9ZDBFKGFianna Fáil3wks3W
We fought for neutrality, that should be respected unless said suspect poses a direct threat to the nation
@9ZCTZV63wks3W
Yes but only in the most extreme cases, when capture is not an option and when there is undeniable proof that they are planning to attack the country. In all other cases they should be captured and be given a fair trial.
@9F2CKNY1yr1Y
If a law has been broken or treat to our country detain them and make them face trail, if the resist and are a threat use whatever force is necessary
If the terrorist is targeting the Irish Government then I think he should be handled by the EU and Irish military
@9K94GZ39mos9MO
it depends on how much of a threat it is to a country. if its a big threat then yes, if not then no.
@9JB2VW210mos10MO
we are ment to be neutral... why would we get involved, our army is for peace keeping. but they do need better training
@9WWTDL91mo1MO
Interpol should take responsibility for investigating and arresting terrorist suspects in collaboration with the Irish equivalent.
Much of Ireland itself is currently a “foreign country.” The Free State’s collaboration with the Thatcherite death squads murdering the families of Republicans in the North was close enough to this and it was a disgrace
@8H4GD784yrs4Y
they should be captured and given a fair trial & have them deported back from where they have come from but according to UK Law they must serve time in prison the rest he must serve in his own prison ack from where they have come from
@9CXNJ381yr1Y
Only if it is a threat to Ireland.
@9C56XKQ2yrs2Y
No that is a violation of countries sovereignty
Yes, particularly those of Israeli origin, whose families and associates should be monitored very closely.
@8JMQPHG4yrs4Y
No because they are suspected
No, only suspected terrorists in our country, or from our country, or with an undeniable attack on our country, and they should be trialed fairly.
@9BD57N4Social Democrats2yrs2Y
Ireland is a peaceful county, there should be no international military operations.
@9BCZJZG2yrs2Y
Why would we get involved if it’s another country’s issue? Each country should be able to deal with their own attacks unless Ireland was specifically asked to aid the other country.
@9BBWHKXIndependent2yrs2Y
I do not believe Ireland is capable of undertaking these sort of operations but I do believe that surveillance and monitoring of them should be undertaken.
@99RBL862yrs2Y
we don’t have the military capabilities to do this
@98M8BPF2yrs2Y
in prison them & give them a fair trial & extradite them back to their country serving their prison sentence
@97CPFN52yrs2Y
no need to remain netural
@978QXVS2yrs2Y
It's better not to but this isn't always possible.
@96M78H92yrs2Y
We are a neutural country
@963CJ2K2yrs2Y
Yes but it depends what countries consider the person a terrorists.
@95FVBDM2yrs2Y
They should be allowed in no matter colour, race or religion
@94BXBXP2yrs2Y
Allow the United States and NATO to do it and not risk our own men for some foreign terrorist unless they threaten us directly.
@92Y8NKL3yrs3Y
yes send the army to Afghanistan to eliminate the Taliban
@8YZKJL63yrs3Y
Yes but only if they are planning or have committed a attack on our country and have been convicted by a juge
@8YSQGYTIndependent3yrs3Y
No capture, imprison And provide therapeutic intervention
they should have a fair trial but if they resist arrest and kill people there is no choice but assassinate them only as a last resort though
@8YLXLQPSocial Democrats3yrs3Y
we should sent them back to their own country to assassinated & that is our Irish law
@8YBM5JL3yrs3Y
No, unless there is a wanted fugitive from there place that they came from
@8XNSMNN3yrs3Y
THE UK would have to assassinate itself
@8XFLST73yrs3Y
We have our own Irish law to deal with assassinating suspected terrorists in foreign countries in Ireland
@8WP4MKB3yrs3Y
@8WGCMND3yrs3Y
Yes if the terrorist holds a British passport
@8VZK8MD3yrs3Y
If there is undeniable evidence that they have or going to commit an attack on our country, we should try to capture, interrogate and imprison them but if it is to dangerous we should assassinate them
@8T3NV2HRenua Ireland4yrs4Y
Yes, but only if the national interest exceeds the cost/risk of the operation.
@8RX7F7G4yrs4Y
No, they should only do it in Ireland
@8RWPBZZ4yrs4Y
Yes but just USA presidents- the only true terrorists.
@8RP2FN44yrs4Y
Ireland is a neutral country and assassination would only provoke war and not lead toward a united government or world peace
@8RLNYM84yrs4Y
No, and there should be global coordination so that we make sure to cooperate and assess fairly the danger represented by someone. Eventually capture and give a fair trial to such an individual
@8R97B5C4yrs4Y
No, leave the foreign countries deal with the terrorists, but aid them
@8R6JJWS4yrs4Y
We should work in association with the police forces and authorities in those jurisdictions
@8P38GVX4yrs4Y
If they pose risk to Ireland yes
@8J2LNT24yrs4Y
Irish Law does not allow for us to assassinate suspected terrorists in foreign countries who come here which is why we should update our laws

No 1. Military action taken inside allied countries must receive approval from the ally first and foremost.
