@vonderleyen What about murdered Palestinian children? Don't they matter?

Tens of thousands of Ukrainian children taken by Russia remain separated from their country and loved ones. We will not rest until every single one of them is reunited with their families. With €50 million, we're putting concrete support behind our commitment. Strengthening protection systems, providing education and ensuring justice for the stolen children. The return of each child must be part of any peace agreement.

Don’t like people wearing watermelon pins at your shitty medical conference? Don’t care. “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” makes you feel scared? Don’t care. Seeing Palestinian flags on university campuses upsets you? Don’t care. A student calling Israel an apartheid state hurts your little feelings? Don’t care. A doctor speaking publicly about Palestinian children being massacred feels “divisive” to you? Fuck you. People refusing to condemn Palestinian resistance makes you uneasy? Don’t care. Hearing the word “genocide” feels inflammatory to you? Don’t care. A keffiyeh in a workplace gives you a panic attack? Don’t care. “Globalise the intifada” sounds genocidal to you? Don’t care. People interrupting politicians feels disrespectful to you? Don’t care. You no longer being able to monopolise victimhood makes you angry? Truly could not care less. What I care about are the Palestinian children being burned alive. The doctors being tortured. The families erased under rubble. The starvation. The concentration camps. The destruction of Gaza’s hospitals and universities and refugee camps and entire civilian infrastructure. But for the nearly last 1,000 days and decades prior, Western institutions have demanded everyone stop and carefully tend to Jewish emotional discomfort instead. Not Palestinian lives. Not Palestinian suffering. Not Palestinian speech. Zionist discomfort. Zionist fragility. Zionist political sensitivity—elevated, enforced, and institutionalised across universities, hospitals, media outlets, professional associations, politicians, donors, and advocacy groups. All working in sync to transform Zionist discomfort into institutional emergency. While Palestinian suffering is rendered invisible. While Palestinian speech is disciplined. While Palestinian humanity is treated as negotiable. That is the function of the Jewish Feelings Industrial Complex. Not safety. Not care. Not protection. Institutionalised Zionist emotional management at scale. Fuck every single institution that constantly weaponizes “Jewish safety,” “Jewish discomfort,” and “Jewish feelings” to justify censorship, repression, career destruction, anti-Palestinian racism, and silence in the face of mass atrocity. If a watermelon pin destabilises you more than the annihilation of Gaza, the problem is not the watermelon pin. The problem is you. -- from "The Anti-Zionist" patreon.com/posts/awww-you…

🇮🇪🇮🇱 Former Irish footballer and manager Roddy Collins calls for Ireland to boycott Israel football fixtures even if refusing fixtures brings consequences for Irish football. A TRUE LEGEND 👏🏻 🔥

@its_mizuko_ 18

Most people rush and fail… don’t be one What's your answer?

@JuliaHB1 You are a fouland sick individual.

Good luck to all the candidates standing in the Gaza Bin Collections election today 🤞

Should the Rep of Ireland play Israel in EUFA Nations league in September ? Vote and RT please.

A number of leading figures within Irish soccer have signed an open letter calling on the FAI to refuse to play Israel in the UEFA Nations League later this year #RTESport #RTESoccer

Hi Ayne, Irish Jew here, daughter of a German born Holocaust surviver. I should be angry at this outrageously stupid and ridiculis post and was tempted to scroll on, with an eye roll, but found I could not. So.. here goes ..I love my country, Ireland, and its people. We Irish "give out" a lot about many things, and rightly so, but when it gets down to the nitty gritty we stick together, love and protect each other. There is a long history of oppression and colonialism in Ireland which allows us Irish to understand the subject pretty darn well. I have many many friends here, most of whom I have no clue of what religion they might or might not practice or even how they vote in elections as that is of no interst to me and its a vice versa thing. The Irish couldn't give a sheit if you are Jewish or not. They do however, give a sheit, if you are blowing children to pieces, commiting genocide and stealing homes and land. The few people who I do know to be Jewish or of Jewish decent, are venimtly anti Zionist, as am I, and can be found on the front lines of Free Palestine marches, even speaking at them. To us..never again means never again.. to any one ..anywhere... ever! I hope that clarifies the issue for you.

@EwanMacKenna Is Dee Forbes better yet?

Not defending him but seems Ryan Tubridy was the sacrificial lamb in RTE, their heads and their slush funds episode. Literally only person punished. Those on top all got huge pay offs and pensions and the business got hundreds of billions as a reward for corruption and deceit.

@Independent_ie Looks like the 'talent' wasn't that talented.

Ryan Tubridy: ‘I’ve heard nothing from RTÉ. I can’t stand outside the door knocking until they answer’ buff.ly/jkBzf3q

@Independent_ie Scrambling to get back on the gravy train!

@HMcEntee @emireland Also strong support for a United Ireland, but you didn't mention that?

Strong support across Ireland for our place at the heart of Europe 🇮🇪🤝🇪🇺 The latest @emireland poll shows 82% of 🇮🇪 citizens support Ireland’s EU membership, a positive figure as we take up the EU Presidency in July. Read more: gov.ie/en/department-…

Charlotte Church sang From the River to the Sea at a fundraising event for Palestinians and now all the usual people are screaming antisemitism and trying to cancel her. RT if you stand with Charlotte Church and Palestine.

@afshineemrani Given the low Jewish population in Ireland, as opposed to Britain, its entirely feasible that no one in the audience knew a Jewish person. I'm 75, and to my knowledge I have only met one Jewish person in my life, a wonderful man named Jack Matowski.

A moment of deafening silence that says everything. ​In less than two minutes, this clip captures a chilling reality on Irish television. When Boy George asks a simple, human question—“Do you know any Jewish people?”—the response isn't just quiet; it’s a void. ​The Confrontation ​While Patrick Kielty attempts to frame targeted attacks on the Jewish community through the lens of "complexity" and external conflict, Boy George cuts through the noise with radical clarity. ​The Callousness: Using a "backdrop" to rationalize the targeting of a minority group is not nuance; it is dismissive. ​The Silence: Watch Boy George’s face. The shock isn't performative—it’s the realization of how deep the isolation runs. ​The Dismissal: A quick "mmm" to end the conversation when it becomes too uncomfortable to face the truth. ​Why This Matters ​For too long, the Jewish community in Ireland has been ignored, gaslit, and disrespected by the very media meant to represent all citizens. To see a global icon stand up and name the erasure while the room stays silent is, quite frankly, extraordinary. ​"If you don't know any Jewish people, maybe that's the problem." ​Watch until the end. This isn't just about a talk show; it’s about the terrifying ease with which a community can be made invisible in plain sight. ​Thank you, @BoyGeorge, for speaking the truth in a room that wasn't ready to hear it. 🇮🇪✡️ ​#Ireland #BoyGeorge #StandUpToAntisemitism #Truth #JewishCommunity #LateLateShow

Only for smart mind people What’s your answer?

I bet you can't guess it right 😋 Difficulty - Hard 🤯

A brave model during Copenhagen fashion week pulls out a Palestinian flag from her dress to unveil a message for the world: “ACT NOW AGAINST GENOCIDE.”

@KemiBadenoch We no longer consider him to be Irish. He lost that honour a long time ago.

Graham Linehan should never have been dragged through the courts in the first place. The real scandal is a system that wastes time on litigious nonsense driven by professional activists while serious crime goes unpunished. We need to kill cancel culture. Free speech cannot survive if the process becomes the punishment. This is why I asked Toby Young to review the laws that are stifling free speech so the next Conservative government can put an end to this wasting of our resources.

Does Israel look like the frustrated peacemaker facing off with barbaric opponents, or a rogue state whose decades-long aggression has provoked the very retaliatory violence exploited to excuse its constant war-making? Is Israel a small, reluctant fortress state defending itself, or a western military client so drunk on its own power that it can no more limit its territorial ambitions than a great white shark can stop swimming? The truth is that the past 30 months have graphically exposed not only what Israel always was but, by extension, what our own western states aspired to achieve through their most favoured Middle East client. In a moment of imprudence last month, Christian Turner, Peter Mandelson’s replacement as British ambassador to the US, let slip the reality. Washington, the West’s imperial hub, he said, had no deep loyalty to its allies – apart from one. Unaware his words were being recorded, he told a group of visiting students: “I think there is probably one country that has a special relationship with the United States, and that is probably Israel.” That special relationship requires that the political and media class in Washington’s other client states, such as Britain, shield the West’s Sparta in the Middle East from critical scrutiny. So glaring have Israel’s atrocities become that the British government announced last month that it was shuttering its Foreign Office unit tracking war crimes – citing the need for cuts – rather than face further exposure of its collusion in those crimes. If the British government refuses to monitor Israel’s war crimes, don’t expect more from the establishment media. For months, Israel has been blowing up village after village in south Lebanon, driving millions of inhabitants from lands lived on for millennia by their ancestors, and it barely registers with our politicians and media. Israel is destroying Gaza’s water supplies, as it earlier did the tiny enclave’s hospitals and health system, ensuring the further spread of disease, and our politicians and media have barely a word to say about it. Israel kills journalists and emergency crews in Gaza and Lebanon week after week, month after month, and it raises barely an eyebrow from the political and media class. Israel declares “yellow lines“ in Gaza and Lebanon, demarcating expanded borders that formalise its theft of other peoples’ lands, and this instantly becomes the new normal. Israel continuously violates ceasefires in Gaza and Lebanon, spreading misery and inflaming yet more anger and bitterness, and once again, our politicians and media turn a blind eye. Which western media outlets are pointing out a starkly revealing fact: that Israel now occupies more of Lebanon than Russia does of Ukraine? This is an extract from my latest article The West’s bubble of illusion about Israel - and about itself – is finally being burst. Find a link to the article in the reply post ⬇️
