      It’s very much feels like a lot of dirt is had on a lot of people.

      Kidnap the presidents sister in international waters and hold her hostage and literally nothing but a tut tut.

      I’m sure Mehole will offer a stern rebuke to Israel in his next media appearance instead

      Talk about being gaslit by a Taoiseach

    5. Trade is, of course, an EU competency, so the bill isn’t something the Irish government can actually enact.

      I’m sick of politicians wasting Dáil time with this rubbish, can they actually work towards something productive for once.

      I suppose it’s a great sound bite for them though. PPB sticking it up to Israel only to be stopped in their tracks by evil FFG. It will go down great with their social media followers who never bother their arse to vote

      For the same reason that Brexit couldn’t have a special trade deal for Northern Ireland and that Trump couldn’t do trade deals directly with Germany and France, decisions relating to trade and sanction on states outside of the EU are the sole competency of EU bodies.

      Ireland, as an EU state, is not legally permitted to sanction other countries unilaterally.

      This bill was performative nonsense. It could never be made law.

      For those about to shit all over this the government are playing a bigger game, same as all the other broadly pro-palestine governments in Europe. They putting all their efforts behind a pan EU sanction rather than blow all their political capital on a poorly fleshed out singular sanction that will barely dent Israeli income and land us as a reactive outlier on the international stage. This is actual statecraft, not a debate in a pub.

      I’m very happy to shit on this government on most issues but in this case I wont, PbP are just doing what they always do, putting forward bullshit symbolic bills that they know dont work when scrutinized while trying to claim the government are do nothing Zionists.

      Remember some of the Death threats the Taniste recieved came from Israel

      The kidnapping of the president’s sister by what are basically pirates should be enough to sever any ties with Israel. This needs to be treated as a far bigger deal.
