The actions of the Israeli government towards illegally detained members of the Sumud Flotilla, including Irish and EU citizens is despicable and cannot be consequence free.
This is a further clear breach of international law.
Appalled at the shocking behaviour of Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir towards illegally detained members of the Sumud Flotilla.
The Israeli government’s actions are in breach of international law and I intend to raise this issue at EU level.
If you are so "appalled and shocked" by the treatment of the flotilla activists why did the government walk into the Dáil after issuing this statement and vote against sanctioning Israel when the same flotilla activists had explicitly called on you to support the sanctions bill?
@HMcEntee You just voted not to sanction Israel. Did you make that decision by yourself or did your EU overlords tell you how to vote. You're a Nazi Helen.
Itamar Ben-Gvir is not an anomaly in Israeli society. Hell, he’s not even an anomaly in the Israeli cabinet.
Here’s Israeli Transport Minister Miri Regev, also bragging about torturing the activists who tried to bring aid to Gaza.
The entire barrel is rotten to the core.
Here we go, more words of deep concern while yesterday evening 77 members of this gov voted against sanctioning Israel for their crimes against humanity. We do what the US tells us while Spain refuses. It’s business as usual with genocide. Shame on these TD’s. Names to follow.
