A photo to be proud of. Ireland will always stand with Palestine. And indeed, all who fight back against the cancer of Imperialism. An Phoblacht abรบ ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฎ๐ช๐ฎ๐ช๐ฎ๐ช๐ฎ๐ช

This just made me cry. I wish Canada had stood up for what we supposedly value instead of using my tax dollars to fund a genocide. Thank you Ireland for being the epitome of grace and strength.
Some folk commenting here need to learn the history of Palestine and its occupation over 76 years by Israel. This war didn't start with Hamas. Making cheap jibes while hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children are being massacred is shameful. Show some humanity.
It needs to be said and said, and said again. Being against actions of Isreal as a country, and loathing Netanyahu for the corrupt despot he is - does NOT make you an anti semite. That is rubbish.
Worth noting that, IIRC, most Palestinians are a Semitic people. The irony that anti-Semite has now been co-opted to mean โanyone who opposes the actions of the present-day Israeli governmentโ isโฆ deeply troubling, and haunting considering their intent is clearly to erase the Palestinian people.
We can be proud of all of our ancestry. It makes us who we are. There isn't a civilization in existence without skeletons in the closet and I'm not going to shame and put myself down because others want me to.
I am ashamed at the way white people have treated humans for centuries and in the United States continue to do so. But my Irish friends are being amazing.
I was once connected to someone who supposed to be my great grand uncle Emon DeValera but I found out with ancestry that I wasn't Italian Irish related to him but Scottish. I understand what Amon all was about and the IRA's methods to free themselves from England. But they got to live separately.
Ay ay ay, the pro-genocide bots found this thread and muddied it with whataboutism all over again. "bUt tHeY sUpPoRtEd hItLeR!" Yeah dude we're talking about Palestine here not Nazi Germany.
The Irish have a special affinity to the palestinians given their histories. The irish spent 900 years trying to rid themselves of the English. They see that history reflected in Palestine as well.
