Oh no. Who could have predicted this, other than literally everybody.
Israel is out of control (and has been for a long while) and must be stopped.
Israel doesn’t have much love for the Irish given they are pretty sympathetic and outspoken about the Palestinian plight for obvious reasons. What a fucking mess
The colonizing people of the world see themselves in Israel.
The colonized people of the world see themselves in Palestine.
I dont know who said it first, but it rings true every day.
Actually it goes back farther.
The IRA was trained, in part, by the PLO.
The early anti-guerilla operations by the British in Palestine, before Israel was a state but when Palestine was fighting Zionists (literally what they called themselves, with a stated goal of just taking over Palestine and getting rid of the native population which includes Palestinian Jews), were just “well the Crown says we can’t do this in Ireland but they’re not looking here in Palestine.”
This includes literally tying Palestinian captives to grilles or loading them onto forward-mounted trailers in a convoy to act as human shields. This includes retributive strikes against guerilla’s families and friends.
Ireland has a HELL of a good reason to be close to Palestine, because it literally actually happened to them.
Except the other option is worse. And you are complicit in whoever wins if you don’t vote at all.
Removed, you truncated the quote which takes it out of context.
From the VP debate:

“But the expansion of Israel and its proxies is an absolute, fundamental necessity for the United States to have the steady leadership there. You saw it experienced today, where, along with our Israeli partners and our coalition, able to stop the incoming attack. But what’s fundamental here is that steady leadership is going to matter.”
That’s fucked up, but I’m glad it’s stiffening the peacekeepers’ resolve. The IDF isn’t gonna stop shooting at UN personnel, and a lot of company size units of jumpy conscripts are gonna have some bad days before this is over. From un.org:
Spain, France, and Italy would piss off the EU. Korea and Poland are going to be a uhhh … learning opportunity for the IDF.
Germany keeps on sucking Netanyahu’s dick and will always block any concerted action at the EU level.
I’m not familiar with how the EU actually works, does each country get a veto for things like sanctions? Because Germany might just get outvoted if Israel keeps going down this line.
