Ireland’s Triple Lock Under Siege: Government and Their Media Puppets Betray the People’s Will for EU War Machine

Ireland’s sacred military neutrality—a proud legacy of peace—is being sold out by a government kneeling before Brussels’ war-hungry EU elite. The Triple Lock, the iron shield stopping our troops from being dragged into foreign bloodbaths, is targeted for slaughter in the Defence (Amendment) Bill 2025, set to be rammed through the Dáil next week. A resounding 75% of Irish people—three out of four—stand united in demanding we keep our neutrality and the Triple Lock, cherishing our role as a beacon of peace. Yet, Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, propped up by their government-controlled media lapdogs like RTÉ and The Irish Times, are hell-bent on betraying the nation to join the EU’s militarised nightmare. This is treason against the Irish people, risking our sons and daughters as pawns in Brussels’ endless wars.

What is the Triple Lock, and What Law Anchors It?

The Triple Lock is Ireland’s fortress of neutrality, requiring three layers of approval before sending more than 12 Defence Forces personnel overseas: Government (Cabinet), a Dáil vote, and a United Nations mandate or resolution. Enacted in 2001 after the Nice Treaty’s rejection, it’s cemented in the Defence Acts 1954-2015, specifically Section 2 of the Defence (Amendment) Act 2006, mandating UN authorisation for peacekeeping. It ensures Ireland remains a neutral peacemaker, blocking entanglement in aggressive alliances like NATO or unilateral wars vetoed by UN powers like Russia or China. Scrapping it hands our sovereignty to EU battle groups or PESCO, turning Ireland into a cog in Brussels’ war machine.

Government-Controlled Media Push for Removal

The government’s grip on Ireland’s media is undeniable, with outlets like RTÉ and The Irish Times—fattened by taxpayer-funded ads and state contracts—acting as mouthpieces to dismantle the Triple Lock. On any given day, like September 10, 2025, these papers are littered with ads from government departments, HSE, Tusla, and state-backed NGOs, with up to 20-30% of their ad space bought by public funds, ensuring editorial loyalty. RTÉ, propped up by €150 million in annual license fees, and The Irish Times parrot Tánaiste Micheál Martin’s March 2025 call to axe UN oversight, framing it as “modernising” Ireland’s “independent foreign policy.” By July, The Irish Times cheered an Oireachtas committee’s nod for “strengthened” oversight post-removal, burying the public’s 75% support for neutrality. In August, Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill demanded its scrapping at the Michael Collins commemoration, whining it shackles Ireland against “global threats”—a thinly veiled push for EU-NATO alignment.

The pretext? Russia’s UN veto allegedly blocks missions in Ukraine or Syria. But this is a lie to mask Brussels’ agenda: the EU’s Migration Pact and PESCO demand a militarised Ireland, ready to serve as a cog in their “collective defense.” Fianna Fáil’s Jim Gavin, eyeing the presidency, backed abolition in September, sneering at the 75% who cherish neutrality as outdated. Newstalk and RTÉ amplify this betrayal, dismissing the public’s overwhelming will as “isolationist,” while X users like @SeanDubIreland rage against this elite contempt for the people’s voice.

The People’s Stand: 75% Demand Neutrality

The Irish people are crystal clear: 75%—a supermajority—demand the Triple Lock and neutrality remain untouched, a bulwark of our identity forged over decades of resisting imperial wars. This isn’t a fringe view; it’s the heart of Ireland, from rural villages to urban streets, united against being pawns in EU or NATO conflicts. Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire and Rose Conway-Walsh blast removal as eroding a “strength” valued by the Irish people, with Ó Laoghaire calling Carroll MacNeill’s push “naive and shortsighted.” Aontú’s Peadar Tóibín and Mayo County Council have passed motions to defend it, echoing the nation’s fury. Independent TD Catherine Connolly, a presidential contender, champions neutrality in Dáil speeches, embodying the people’s resolve.

Grassroots movements like Uplift, Global Women Strike, and the Neutrality Roadshow rally across Ireland, warning of the “danger” to sovereignty, joined by former peacekeepers who know war’s cost. The Transnational Institute calls the Triple Lock “vital” for active neutrality. On X, voices like @ConorReddy95 and @westie1988ie urge voting out pro-removal sell-outs, tying it to preserving peace.

Dáil Showdown: The People vs. Traitors – 70 years could be shattered

Next week, the Dáil could shatter 70 years of neutrality, chaining Ireland to the EU’s war machine amid Ukraine’s chaos. The government’s media puppets—bought with taxpayer ads—push this betrayal, but 75% of Ireland stands firm: neutrality is our soul. Storm Leinster House, hoist the tricolour, flood the streets with protests, and scream for our sovereignty. The Triple Lock is our fortress—defend it now, or watch Ireland bleed in wars we didn’t choose.
