It irritates me that any criticism is labelled anti-Semitic. There is a big difference between posing Israeli government policies and promoting hate against the Jewish community.
Israel confirms its genocidal activities by closing its embassy in response to them being called out. I suppose there is an accidental honesty in that. Just a pity Ireland didn't jump first and kick the feckers out.
A sign we are doing something right. This is a badge of honour that Irish people do not sit idly by watching ethnic cleansing. We need to double down now as Trump.will make things much worse.
I don't think you'd find many people in Ireland who don't support the defeat of a terrorist organisation. Ireland is taking issue with the unacceptably high civilian casualties and disregard for international humanitarian law, not with the war on Hamas.
Israel makes zero effort to minimize collateral damage. They are perfectly happy to bomb a hospital full of non combatants and claim hamas was using them as human shields. And so what if they were. It's still not acceptable.
Does Israel realise how ridiculous they look? “Extreme anti Israel policies” include supporting the international rule of law, via the ICC and recognising Palestinian territory as Palestine! It’s become a country determined to become a pariah, and testing how far western wimps can be pushed!
We can criticise our government for many things but on this, we're on the right side of history. I stand with Ireland's decision to join the South Africa case against Israel, and to recognise a Palestinian state. No decent human can deny what's happening. The most widely covered genocide in history.
Reminds me of the story of the novice nun shouting “Fu*k Off Fu*k Off” to get the crows out of the vegetable garden
“You can’t be shouting that” says the Mother Superior “Just go Shoo Shoo and then the crows will Fu*k Off”
Israelis going about their business in Ireland should be protected from abuse, harassment or worse, and made welcome just like anyone else. But it feels like there's hint of a threat between the ambassador's lines: nice high-tech industry you've got, shame if anything happened to it.
Fantastic news, Zionists don't belong in any building in Ireland, get out, stay out, you can ask nicely to come when you work out that murdering civilians is not acceptable.
A huge waste of money having an embassy in Tel Aviv. The way they treat our ambassador alongside how they treat the Norwegian and Spanish ambassadors isn't the way a normal country would. Close it down. Then move the Irish embassy in Palestine to East Jerusalem or Bethlehem.
You need the patience of a saint to listen to her and kudos to Rachael English for her professionalism is this interview. It's what long spoons are for...
Irish Government unwilling to support genocide is an extreme anti-Israel policy🙄. Such a sensitive Israeli government…they don’t mind implementing genocide on a massive scale but don’t hurt their feelings. Don’t let the door hit ye on the way out!

Now, get rid of the Russians as well.
Oh that would be Dublin’s anti-genocide, anti-apartheid policies then!
Adios Israel ….. ! 👋🖕
