Civil disobedience is a perfectly rational response to a failure to prevent genocide.

This is disgraceful, breaking onto a runway and assaulting a garda after being arrested, shame on them! We all agree what’s going on in the middle east is awful and wrong on so many levels, but this aggressive protesting gets nobody anywhere. Grow up and stop acting like fools!

Also worth noting that the Coast Guard helicopter is necessarily grounded when there’s a security incident airside, on a day of the year when there’ll be way more people than average swimming in the ocean.
So these dopey fucks are interfering with a critical emergency service for the entire West Coast as well.

> “They claim that this is in direct violation of Ireland’s constitutional commitment to neutrality, and in breach of international law”.
Which part of the Constitution?
What happened to the guard? An asthma attack?
I think their opposition to the US military is justified due to the US’s involvement in Gaza but storming into an airport is quite dangerous.
This act will achieve nothing more than a peaceful protest.
Scum
I wish any political party or activist had one tenth of empathy dedicated to Palestinians spared on foreign workers and homeless people in Ireland.
Very little is being done to ensure weapons are not passing through Ireland or its airspace, which is a criminal act. In all likelihood, it is [still happening](https://www.thejournal.ie/taoiseach-no-consent-sought-by-israeli-arms-shipment-flight-which-crossed-irish-airspace-6471728-Aug2024/) even now.
