“None of us carries any weapons.” “We carry nothing but kindness, goodness, love and prayer.” These were the words of Father Pierre El Rahi. Today, Israel killed him in South Lebanon. A priest with prayers. Murdered in broad daylight.

If any of you know a Dublin Taxi Driver Daniel McGuinness please tell him that he's an absolute gentleman. He brought us to Crumlin Hospital from Connolly St and despite my very proficient convincing skills refused to accept payment. Thank you so much and God Bless. #kindness
