@1rorycowan@FineGael@fiannafailparty@sinnfeinireland By all accounts Israel is not committing genocide. Anyone without a blind hatred of Jews can see that. Irish politicians are blinded by years of anti Israel conditioning. I wasn't referring to that. However comparing abortion to murder is also wrong.
@1rorycowan Palestinians in Gaza are preparing for protests against Hamas oppression, meanwhile the Irish minister is concerned about painting Palestinians as perpetual victims of Israel instead of facing Hamas corruption of aid.
@staceylozinsky@EYakoby And the flotilla "activists" claiming they were kidnapped by the IDF when there were actual people kidnapped, r*ped, starved and beaten by Hamas is a huge embarrassment, but we don't see anyone condemning their theatrics.
@1rorycowan Thank you Rory. We're not British, we are Jewish Irish citizens that live in London. It feels very lonely being Jewish at the moment, and very scary. Your words and consistent support mean a lot
@itsalljade I'm Jewish and my husband is a (lapsed) Irish Catholic. We have two kids. Of course he stands up and advocates for us. I wouldn't have married him if our values didn't align.
@CheallaighNiamh Nah, she's a "do nothing" politician. I don't like Trump and don't fully understand his motivations, but the Iranian people were crying out for help. If it was up to Catherine Connolly they'd continue to rot under IRGC oppression.
@deegn44596@DiarmuidGleeson@RachelMoiselle@dxragh You are inverting cause and effect. The countries ruled by Islamic fundamentalists can't stand the existence of Israel because it's the only Jewish state amongst Islamic states and they haven't managed to Islamicise it. They have all tried to attack Israel.
@DiarmuidGleeson@RachelMoiselle@dxragh I moved with my Irish husband to London 4 years ago and he feels the same. When you see how other country's media reports on the topic Vs the propaganda in Ireland you can see how brainwashed Irish people in Ireland have become. He's so depressed by it.
@Partisan_12 False equivalence. Critical thinking is truly dead. Khamenei wasn't a religious leader. If you bothered to listen to all the Iranians begging for freedom fire decades you'd know that. He was a tyrant holding Iranians hostage.
@derekryan2026@OdohertyI64991 Not the Israeli government who we don't support. Just ordinary Israelis which includes members of my family, friends etc.
@derekryan2026@OdohertyI64991 The media and left wing academia have a serious impact on public opinions though. I'm Jewish and Israeli, lived in Ireland for many years and married an Irishman. The amount of people who have turned on me and my Irish husband because we won't hate on Israel as a country. 1/2
