Well what i think will be interesting is that i think he will lay out Holocaust and the 5000 years of what Jews suffered. Then Gaza. Then Arsb nations. He wont use the famous phrase in video..but i suspect close. Bang on Mr President
RTÉ repeating misleading information on the genocide that more than 46k were killed. Figures from April 2024.
Negligence or collusion with the aggressors?
The gulf between antisemitism and criticising friends for atrocities committed during a war is enormous. The Israeli regime has used antisemitism for any criticism, even if just calling out the targeting of innocent women and children. Clearly only a war crime if perpetrated against Israel.
Hasbara elements controlling this must be exposed for what they are. Maybe there should be a European day of reflection on the victims of all genocides, its mechanisms and the mediocrities behind it. So never again means never again.
A lot of people, especially the government of Israel want to conflate criticism of their acts, atrocities with antisemitism as a way to silence that criticism. What is depressing is seeing the likes of ADL do it too.
