Got it. If Irish aluminum is used to kill Palestinians, it’s shouldn’t be sold, but if it’s used for Russian missiles killing Ukrainians, we just need to think about local jobs first.
@USAmbIreland@POTUS Welcome to Ireland 🇮🇪 Ambassador Walsh. As an American ex-pat living in this country, I am pleading with you to hold the Irish government accountable for the rise in far-left extremism and anti-American/anti-Israel hate speech. Thank you and best of luck ☘️
Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Cmte, Sen Risch calls on possible new US Ambassador to Ireland Edward Walsh to talk to Irish govt about increasing defence spending to protect undersea cables and the country’s stance on Palestine
Honoured to be invited to commemorate Yom HaShoah with members of Ireland’s Jewish Community. This was an exceptionally moving ceremony where the stories of holocaust survivors were shared by their families. Tomi Reichental spoke as a survivor of Bergen Belsen concentration Camp.
Israel didn't start this war. Israel doesn't want this war. Israel knows first duty of sovereign state is to defend its citizens. Israel is fighting for the survival of Western civilisation. Suggest you direct 'profound concerns' to head of the snake, Islamic Republic of Iran.

@SenatorMcDowell we ask that in your own words, you 'carefully examine' the words of Ireland's Chief Rabbi, Yoni Wieder, at our Memorial Vigil, without taking them out of context. Please see Rabbi Wieder's words below:
"Since October 7 Israel has been engaged in a war that it did not ask for, that it never wanted. It's been forced into this position by a terrorist organisation that is not only intent on murdering Jews and destroying Israel, but on putting civilians in harm's way. Israel is waging war with Hamas and Hezbollah because they are intent on destroying Israel; on murdering Jews."
The Rabbi was quoted correctly and in context in an Irish Times article on Monday 7 October as saying that "the community is united by a longing to see lasting peace, and for everyone, Israelis and Palestinians, to be able to live and thrive in prosperity and harmony."
