Israel dropped white phosphorus bombs on farmers harvesting watermelons in South Lebanon.
This is not a military target.
This is a field.
These are farmers.
White phosphorus causes severe chemical burns and is prohibited under international law when used in civilian areas.
Myself on GBNews about #fuelprotest Main points -
1. Country is loaded with cheap energy in oil/ gas off our coast.
2. Government is awash with money from corporation tax.
3 It's a political decision to load us with carbon tax, EU VAT, excise duty.
4 Coalition of farmers, hauliers, contractors who are being crippled by expensive fuel costs wants to meet Govt to discuss a viable solution.
5 Despicable Govt sends in army and riot squad to beat peaceful protestors off the street. #@IrexitFreedom #IrelandNeedsCheaperFuel
They are 108 Irish children who survived the initial assault on their lives, only to be denied the ordinary medical care, warmth, nutrition, and comfort that the law demands for any newborn in our hospitals. Instead, under current protocols, they were left to die without intervention.
We told the Irish people in 2018 that repealing the Eighth would open the door to precisely this nightmare: a two-tier system where some children are cherished while others deemed "unwanted" or "non-viable" are quietly allowed to perish.
Do not talk about mother and baby homes when hospitals are becoming a coin toss between life saving facilities and butcher shops where newborns can simply be labeled as "unwanted" and therefore be left to die, screaming in agony for help that never comes.
Demonic.
@CatholicArena Everyone involved should be charged with murder. I don't understand how anyone could let such small helpless babies die alone in agony.
This, from our venerated so called health professionals. Maybe we're as bad for not taking action against these monsters. I don't know.
"Recent excavations have uncovered compelling evidence that St Brigid was an early member of the Newbridge Social Democrats, and campaigning archeologist Catherine Clewliss has also discovered buried manuscripts in which Brigid appears to call for the immediate banning of X."
The genocide of Orthodox Christians in Atheist Soviet Russia is perhaps the single greatest Christian persecution in Human history.
What crimes did the Bolsheviks commit during the ‘Russian Revolution?
They nailed him to the floor of the church. He remained alive for a long time. Red-hot ramrods were slowly driven into his body until one pierced his heart… This is how Bishop Sylvester (Olshevsky) of Omsk died in February 1920.
Bishop Tikhon (Nikanorov) of Voronezh was crucified on the Royal Doors of the iconostasis.
Bishop Andronik of Perm was buried alive in a pit which he had been forced to dig himself.
Bishop Hermogenes of Tobolsk was tied to a ship’s wheel and drowned.
Bishop Seraphim (Chichagov) was carried on a stretcher to be executed at the Butovo firing range, as the nearly 90-year-old elder could no longer walk.
Grand Duchess Elizabeth & the nun Barbara were thrown alive into a deep mineshaft in Alapaevsk.
Bishop Benjamin of Petrograd, along with several laymen, was shot after a show trial based on false charges related to the confiscation of church valuables.
Priest Peter Skipetrov was shot in the face in the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.
Archbishop Nikon Rozhdestvesnky (accused of ‘antisemitism’) was stabbed & maimed to death outside of his monastery (Trinity Sergius Lavra), his body was disfigured beyond recognition. The Bolsheviks also beheaded him.
Metropolitan Vladimir (Bogoyavlensky) of Kiev was dragged outside the walls of the Kiev Lavra, shot, and bayoneted while he gave his blessing to his executioners.
The elderly ascetic, Bishop John (Pommer) of Latvia, was tied to a door torn from its hinges, laid on a workbench, brutally tortured, and then set on fire while still alive.
Bishop Thaddeus of Tver was drowned in human waste.
Father Alexey Merkuryev of the Urals was murdered in front of his congregation, daughter, and son.
Bishop Theophan of Solikamsk was stripped, his hair braided, a pole threaded through it, & he was slowly lowered into an icy hole in the Kama River. His body became encased in ice. But the hierarch was still alive - and then he was drowned.
Some priests and laymen had their hands tied behind their backs, their eyes blindfolded, and were ordered to walk across the ice until they fell into a hole. The torturers mockingly called them ‘divers.’
The holy prisoners of the Solovki labor camp had their beards and mustaches ripped out and were starved to death…
No number of pages or tears can recount all that our land endured so recently - just yesterday. This is only a drop in the ocean of blood shed by the Holy New Martyrs, whose memory we commemorate each year.
Hundreds of thousands of priests and millions of laypeople were killed and torn apart for their faithfulness to Christ. More than 2,000 have been canonized as confessors and martyrs - and how many more are known only to God?
And this was not some mere political struggle. It was hell itself unleashed. Only demons devoid of all conscience could torture people in such ways.
The scale, ferocity, and mercilessness of Soviet persecution of the Church is encapsulated in a single figure: out of 80,000 churches and monasteries at the beginning of the 20th century, by 1939, barely a hundred parishes remained across the vast Russian land. Not a single monastery. Not a single seminary. Not a single bishop at liberty. Just a scattered handful of monks.
@IrexitFreedom Disbanding the RTB would go a long way to solving the housing crisis and could be done at the stroke of a pen. A veritable tsunami of housing would appear on the market if they disappeared.
@EmbrayHotay If Mubarak, Gadaffi, al-Bashir, Ben Ali, Saddam Hussein & Ali Abdullah Saleh had been kept in power, we'd have millions fewer migrants in Europe, be trillions better off & much safer streets. Right-wing regime change guys & left-wing open border zealots are 2 sides of same coin.
@HowardtayHoward Not necessarily. The perpetrators left their calling card "IRCA" a Marxist IRA splinter group. So it's either a Marxist paramilitary group which most certainly is not representative of the Irish people or it's someone discrediting the Marxist group.
@HowardtayHoward It's objectively true that it's not widely known who did it. It wouldn't be the first false flag vandalism by activists in this country. At this stage we've no public information as to who is responsible. We just know you're a bigot because you just told everyone ad much.
