GOOD - from yours --- "Not 'Anti-Israel,' Says Irish Leader After Israeli Embassy Closed, But 'Pro-International Law'
"Ireland will always speak up for human rights and international law. Nothing will distract from that."

Ireland's Taoiseach Simon Harris on Sunday responded to charges by the Israeli government—which earlier in the day shuttered its embassy in Dublin—by saying the Irish government has not been "anti-Israel" in its positions over the war in Gaza, but rather "pro-peace, pro-human rights, and pro-international law."

In a statement explaining the official closure of the diplomatic outpost, Israeli foreign minister Gideon Saar said the "decision to close the Israeli embassy in Dublin was made in light of the extreme anti-Israel policy of the Irish government."

The ministry's statement noted that "the Israeli ambassador in Dublin was returned to Israel at the time following Ireland's decision to unilaterally recognize a 'Palestinian state'," which took place in May of this year.

Saar said Ireland had used "antisemitic rhetoric" against Israel, though did not specify what language he was referring to, and also accused the country of "crossing every red line in its relations with Israel."

In addition to formally recognizing a Palestinian state, the government of Ireland has also backed South Africa in its genocide case against Israel, brought before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) earlier this year. "

--------- good for them. Exactly my position, which brooklyn13 in his nasty way insists is biased.

Heh, 99% of people pick me for Irish, though was born in Sheffield, after about 3y grew up in Canada, and have been in Australia since '67 and have no Irish in blood that i know of. The next time someone does it i'll say that's a good sign and tell them what i've just learned from your post. Must be my gentle non-nationalistic tones, that they see as sounding Irish. Stupid, cruel, unjust world that it is. NO LOL.
