@IrelandFootball need to boycott this immediately. Aside from the morals of playing Israel, it's a political landmine & security risk for the residents of Dublin & fans (if any) travelling to the away game. Playing these games will cost Ireland financially, politically & morally.
The Republic of Ireland will play Israel in 2026-2027 UEFA Nations League as well as matches with Austria and Kosovo | Follow live https://t.co/3F2ePvNRYr

The right-wing press in the UK and Israel is rounding on Zack Polanski, the only Jewish leader of a major political party in Britain, for supporting our campaigning journalism.
Our letter with the ICJP makes simple demands which are firmly in the public interest: to investigate whether Britons who served in the IDF are complicit in violations of international humanitarian law.
Polanski is among over 60 prominent figures to have signed the letter, yet the media has decided to focus its attention on him.
Tory party chairman Kevin Hollinrake has urged Polanski to remove his signature and told the Telegraph that the Green party “need to get serious about tackling anti-Semitism and rooting out hate within their own ranks”.
It is outrageous for Hollinrake to suggest that upholding international law could be playing into anti-Semitism.
Being an IDF soldier is not a protected characteristic and conflating Judaism with the Israeli military is dangerous.
Other prominent signatories of our campaign include human rights lawyer Michael Mansfield, anti-apartheid campaigner Andrew Feinstein, genocide scholar Martin Shaw, former British army general Charlie Herbert, and Palestinian surgeon Ghassan Abu Sitta.
Over 14,000 of our readers have already signed. You can add your name here: https://t.co/F2NqKyg1mt

There is a large operation ongoing to slander Irish people. Led by US/Israel/Ukraine, supported by Europhiles & the British security services, and facilitated by Twitter algorithms & the Irish political & media establishment. The target is not the compliant state, but the people.
I haven’t had the appetite to eat since losing my dad… nothing sits right. But I keep tuning in to Chef Max, watching him spread awareness about Palestine
🔴 Less than a week after Israel burned several preteen children to death in their tents, four more residential apartments were set ablaze overnight, with Israel’s military burning entire families to death as they slept.
The strikes hit homes in Al-Shati refugee camp, the Karama neighborhood, Tel al-Hawa, and Sheikh Radwan in Gaza City.

Are we, as a country willing to sacrifice our water and power supplies to an insatiable monster, who will end up poisoning us?
“The estimated 9.3 trillion litres of water used by data centres would meet the drinking water needs of Earth’s 8.1 billion people for about 1.6 years.”
“We’re going to terrorise you. We’re going to intimidate you.”
This is the message that the Home Office is trying to send to opponents of Israel’s genocide in the UK, commentator Cenk Uygur said on Novara Live.
The host of The Young Turks said the recent decision to ban him from entering the UK was less about preventing British people from hearing his views than discouraging others from speaking out.
Prominent Twitch streamer Hasan Piker was also banned from entering the UK due to his staunch criticisms of Israel.
You don't 'send' defence forces unless they are peacekeepers. There's no such thing as peacekeepers outside of a UN mandate
You send offence forces. That's the only reason to drop the triple. To attack/invade/blockade countries where nobody wants us
