The claim that mosques in the UK and Ireland are being used as armories with weapons stored inside them is contradicted by authoritative debunks of the Dublin mosque gun video, where police said the objects were airsoft replicas and the footage was not filmed at a mosque.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What was said
… I know, and if you look at Europe, you don't have to guess what's going to happen here in the United States if this goes unchecked. You can look into Europe right now and see it for your own self. They are verifying now in the UK and Ireland that there are mosques, in fact, that are armories, and there are weapons stored into them. So what happens when Andy Burnham gets his way, runs a draft, they go off to some fantastical war with Russia, which is insane, and then they give a waiver for conscription to all the Muslim men in the country? How does that exactly work out? …
The Rob Carson Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Contradicts. Leads Stories fact-check reports that Irish police said the guns in a viral video outside a Dublin mosque were airsoft replicas, so the video does not show real weapons at a mosque.[1]
Contradicts. The Journal's debunk says gardaí determined no illegal firearms were involved, the footage was filmed in a car park outside a takeaway in Tallaght rather than at a mosque, and the rifle was an imitation.[2]
Context. The real weapons-related case is a court matter in which three men pleaded guilty to plotting to firebomb the Maryam Mosque in Galway; explosives and weapons were seized from a car during drug searches, not stored in a mosque.[3][4][5]
Context. The Geller Report repeats the Dublin armory allegation with the same framing as the viral post, so it is circular and provides no independent corroboration.[6]
