BREAKING: Whistleblower reveals that the BBC has DIRECT instructions to safeguard Israel’s image.

Irish people have been peacekeeping in southern Lebanon for so long that the local Lebanese people have full Irish accents

This article was published in 1899. 1899. 125 years ago.

Gay marriage isn’t legal in Israel. Israel blackmails gay Palestinian people in order to get information. Israel doesn’t care about queers - it only cares about using any means necessary to expand the colonial and racist project that is it’s existence. Fuck pink washing.

Today marks 85 days. Please don’t forget Aaron Bushnell.

Tomorrow Ireland will formally recognise Palestine.❤️ Recognise their inherent right to their lands and to return, to their own culture and identity, to proudly be Palestinians. Ireland has suffered like Palestine - we know occupation, we know colonial crimes. FREE PALESTINE!

It shouldn't just be Israel's leadership who should be trebling right now. To the commentators and politicians who legitimised this heinous crime, and those who stayed silent, knowing that a great crime was being committed: You should fear accountability, too.

The International Criminal Court has just issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, and Hamas leaders. Israel's leadership is charged with - Starvation - Causing great suffering - Wilful killing / murder - Directing attacks against a civilian population - Crimes against humanity of extermination and murder - Persecution and other humane acts

Netanyahu and Gallant bear responsibility for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Ireland must expel the representative of this cruel regime to Ireland, impose sanctions and stop the US Military from using Shannon airport. We cannot and should not work with war criminals.

TRINITY INVITED U.S MILITARY FUNDING ARM TO COLLEGE AND MOVED EVENT OFF CAMPUS TO AVOID OPPOSITION. The Provosts’ Office was aware of the visit as early as the 12th of February, documents released under the FOI Act show. DOCUMENTS BELOW: drive.google.com/drive/folders/… @TrinityBDS

I’m a researcher, so I spend more time asking questions and listening than speaking. I have engaged with hundreds of Zionists in the last 10 years and most in the last 7 months. Every single one of them were filled with vengeful rage after Oct 7 and most are now indicating an interesting level of satisfaction and softening. The number of deaths seems to have satisfied a “lesson” taught to Palestinians. Hence, the softening and backtracking by many Zionists who are calling out the situation in Gaza “sickening, horrifying, unthinkable” now and disassociating from an “extremist government” that they apparently never supported. As though we don’t have receipts (lol). Netanyahu was always meant to take the fall. In fact, his personality type of insatiable greed, toxic ego, and unhinged leadership is what Zionism needed, so it becomes easier to throw him under the bus at the right time. Don’t be fooled by their newfound morality. Zionists will do anything to protect the Zionist project because colonizers are only loyal to the colony, not its people. The likes of @amyschumer spent months fuelling the flames of “war” and genocidal revenge in the guise of “Israel has the right to defend itself.” If it was about self defence, why change your stance now? Is there no longer a threat of “terrorism”? Simple logic would suggest there’d be even more threat of Palestinians becoming “radicalized” after Israel murdered their children. But this was never about safety, it was always about power. More worrisome is the fact that every Zionist I have ever spoken to has revealed a level of hatred towards Palestinians that I have never seen in ANY community (hate crimes is my area). You see, Zionism has entire families, communities, a nation convinced of their racial religious superiority, even little old ladies doing interfaith work in 🇨🇦 are willing to defend the human rights of anyone, BUT Palestinians 😉. The Zionists I have engaged with have never shown hatred towards me as a Muslim, just towards Palestinians. In fact, they have tried hard to convince me that they (🇵🇸) don’t deserve me, suggesting I am more like them (🇮🇱) - “civilized” and “better”. This is NOT a religious war. This is NOT a war on terror. This is very simply a colonial land grab. And the only way they can convince themselves they have the right to eliminate those existing on that land before them is to treat them as sub-human and less deserving of life. And what better way to convince the world to look away than to lean on the “war on terror” and make it about those “inherently violent Muslims” at a time when hating Muslims is the only acceptable hate entrenched in policy and discourse.

Trinity College Dublin invited U.S military funding arm to the college and spent thousands of euro on drinks for them. Discovered through an FOI request by @TrinityBDS. This is unjustifiable @tcddublin

We will not be intimidated! Shameful union-busting from @tcddublin @LindaDoyle. Students and staff stand united against university management and their suppression of the student voice protesting for Palestine, as well as fees, rents and postgraduate workers' rights.

The students united will never be defeated.

Did Linda Doyle not literally promise in her manifesto that there would NO fee increases under her leadership? Now you're punishing the students' representatives for rightly fighting back ??? @LindaDoyle Protests are MEANT to be disruptive ?

Remember when Russia was banned from Eurovision because of the war in Ukraine? They said “Russian entry would bring the competition into disrepute”. Here, they are promoting the most hated genocidal state in their competition. Western values are a lie.

There's no such thing as an "Irish prime minister". It's Taoiseach. Do your research.

Don’t stop talking about Palestine. Since this conversation on Friday night nearly 500 more Palestinians have been murdered as they seek shelter with nowhere to go.

An active US air force member self immolated outside the Washington DC Israeli embassy as a protest against genocide. I really feel like it should be bigger news. It’s barely a headline on a lot of news sites.
