The Lansdowne Research Poll carried out for Prime Time and the Irish Independent highlighted the growing radicalism among the 40,000 Irish Muslims in Ireland. This Poll found that:

o 20% of Muslims think Ireland could harbour dissidents
o 57% of young Muslims want to see Ireland become an Islamic state
o 36% of all Muslims (over 14,000) want Sharia law introduced in
Ireland.
o 19% of Muslims said they "respect" al-Qa'ida terrorist leader Osama Bin Laden .

In light of this Poll's findings, this Debate is timely as it will
address these key issues.
