'Understanding Ireland’s dependency as a defining feature of Irish economic development allows us to see how the State’s undemocratic actions to support global extractive industries, erode our neutrality, and fail on Palestine are part of the same political economic matrix.'

The Ditch can exclusively report that EU states exported 69 million rounds of ammunition to Israel since October 2023 under the controversial EU-Israel trade agreement. That includes 15 million rounds sent to Israel in the first four months of this year. www.ontheditch.com/eu-states-se...

But not disgusted and sickened enough to vote against facilitating the sale of Israeli war bonds. The Irish people are against the genocide of the Palestinian people, but the government is actively aiding it in every was it can. Never judge them on what they say - judge them by what they do.

Another day of ignominy for our government and its supporters as the bill to stop the Central Bank regulating Israel's genocide bonds was defeated by 87 votes to 75. Well done to Sinn Féin for bringing the bill and all the opposition TDs who voted to #StopFundingGenocide

The government just voted down a proposal to stop the Central Bank authorising the sale of Israeli war bonds in the EU. This is shameful. We must stop financing genocide. The opposition parties are collaborating on a joint motion as the next step.

In trying to remove the Triple Lock, the Govnt has spun a narrative that Ireland should be mistrustful of the UN and supportive of the EU and Western alliances. That this narrative has gained any purchase says a lot about the media and political commentary in this country.

Worth reading this article in detail. The Commissioner admits that the protestors were in fact searched, and there is no video evidence of same.

If the General Assembly passes that motion and Ireland subsequently and entirely lawfully participates in it despite a potential US and UK security council veto then Micheál Martin will perhaps finally be able to admit there's no need to dismantle the triple-lock after all.

No one has a right to genocide. A two state solution isn't possible when one state isn't recognized and isn't allowed to have food or water. We need to call out world leaders trying to fall back on old talking points while a genocide is being broadcast before our eyes with the west's complicity
