@ShonaMurray_ Literally some of the same individuals who were demobilised from the Black and Tans and Auxies joined the British Palestine Police force.

Micheal Martin wondering whether he should explain Ireland’s relationship with Churchill to Trump. He settles for “in Ireland he was a different story.” WC sent the Black & Tans violent paramilitaries to subjugate + crush Irish independence. Then sent same gang to Palestine.

@robggill @ShonaMurray_ Exactly.

@ShonaMurray_ Except Irish sympathy was with Israel initially, given they were fighting for independence from Britain. The "historical Irish affinity" for Palestine is a more recent development and well less historical.

Hence Ireland’s sympathy with Palestinians

If one good thing could happen this Paddy’s Day weekend, it will be ending the total nonsense created in the land of my birth about the “Irish Goodbye” - which supposedly means vanishing. As those who have actually spent any time here know, the real Irish Goodbye can take hours.

@TwoMadExplorers 1. We have our own airport fire brigade 2. If we’d a blocked drain, we’d call in a drainage engineer or plumber (we have those too), not “the fire brigade” 3. You’re claim is utter nonsense 4. Read #3 again

So let me get this straight. FIFA is threatening to penalize Iran for not coming to the world cup in the United States, which just bombed the hell out of them and this is the same FIFA that gave the president of the country that bombed them a peace prize.

@academic_la @twitnickjg Got it in one.

Only Jews are allowed to have guns. Those guns are then used to kill Palestinians and the Jews who kill Palestinians are not arrested while any Palestinian who defends himself is shot. But if you call this apartheid, you are antisemitic.

@GPX_Press @hannada39 Yeah, but just look at how much of that oil he needs to keep his hair looking like that!

Is there anything stopping Iran appointing Netanyahu?

Imagine if WWIII starts with the IDF assassinating Franz Ferdinand.

@AllisonPearson @Keir_Starmer When Argentina invaded the Falklands, the US refused our requests for assistance for 28 days. Eventually sent one fuel tanker and sidewinder missiles to Ascension but only after a month. Israel supplied weapons to Argentina We were billynomates #Iran #VeteransAgainstReform

@SkyNews Fixed it for you.

He must be a clairvoyant

This is brilliant!👇

Frankly, I expected better from a FIFA Peace prize winner.

Bill Clinton in his opening statement to the House Oversight Committee in his deposition about Jeffrey Epstein: “But before we start, I have to get personal. You made Hillary come in. She had nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. Nothing. She has no memory of even meeting him. She neither traveled with him nor visited any of his properties. Whether you subpoenaed 10 people or 10,000, including her was simply not right.” 🔥

@youknowimcoco @PubyWax @alexandersclark Things can get heated.

@PubyWax @alexandersclark "civilians"☺️

I was explaining at dinner that linguists disagree radically about almost everything and one person said so what do they actually agree about? Just that languages exist? And I was like: Well you might want to sit down for this.

@PaulSchleifer 😂

How to spot AI.

The percentage of child dead in the Ukrainian conflict is 0.3%. Zero point three per cent. The percentage of child dead in the Gaza conflict is 37.7%. Thirty seven point seven per cent. In a single statistic, there you have the difference between a war and a genocide.

@voiceofrabbis @banie01 Yep: "the large-scale immigration of Jews to Palestine had (...) begun by 1882." (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliyah)

Some ask: How can you claim that Arabs and Jews got along peacefully before Zionism – what about the Hebron massacre of 1929? The answer is that Hebron was in fact a perfect example of Arab-Jewish coexistence, until Zionist claims to the Western Wall in Jerusalem which then sparked riots that spilled over into other parts of the country. From an account of the story written by a Jewish eyewitness, a student at the Yeshiva of Hebron: · "After such a friendly coexistence, how could the events of 1929 have taken place? · How did the Arabs become so angry at us? · The answer is that it did not start in Hebron, but rather in Jerusalem, and it started a long time before the summer of 1929. · The Zionists seized on the conflict over the Wall as an opportunity to start a dispute with the Arabs and the British authorities. · Over the heads of the poor, humble Jews who prayed at the Wall, the Zionist leaders opened a wave of protest, for they saw the stones of the Wall as symbolic stones of conflict, over which there could be no compromise. · A dispute arose between the Zionist movement and the His Majesty’s Government. · On Tisha B’av of that year [1929], which fell on Thursday, the Zionist Jews held a massive demonstration, which culminated in a march to the Wall, accompanied by the cry, ‘The Wall is our Wall!’ · These cries, which were heard clearly in the houses of the Muslim quarter, spurred the Arabs to prove that the Wall was theirs."
