      Mr Cohen can stay at home, if he finds it objectionable.

      Mr Higgins shall speak wherever Mr Higgins whishes to speak thank you very much

    4. ghostofgralton on

      He was criticised for not showing up to the October 7th commemoration iirc. You can’t win

      The zionists are committing genocide in the open for all to see

      Airport or ferry if they are not happy, cheerio lads go live in Israel

      He should give a speech about Gaza at it. A very long, very detailed speech about how never again is supposed to mean never again for anyone.

      If you don’t want our own president to attend a nation commemorative event, then don’t have one. Simple as. 

    9. In 50 years time, will there be a Gaza Holocaust commemoration i wonder?

      I mean it’s their community if they object to him then maybe he shouldn’t.

      That being said their reasons for objecting to him are absolutely ridiculous and have no merit he’s said nothing against Jewish ppl and has not belittled the Holocaust at all he’s merely asked a country to stop bombing others.

      He hasn’t defended terrorists he just asked a country to stop killing innocent people and bombing hospitals and literally trying to commit genocide which am still baffled by like how can they commemorate one atrocity while ignoring another happening now?

      I didn’t see any Jewish representative stand up for Ireland when vile anti-Irish shite was being spun around on the internet for weeks when the Isreal embassy closed, if they spoke up then Higgins probably would have stayed silent.

      If Higgins doesn’t do the speech they’ll still whinge & the Zionists will spin it as antisemitism as if he wasn’t asked, damned if you do and damned if you don’t

      A Holocaust commemoration event in Ireland has nothing to do with Israel. Why don’t you go fuck yourself, Maurice?

    13. Available_Dish_1880 on

      I don’t remember any apology given to Ireland that Israel were sending Mossad agents out to assassinate while using fake Irish passports. Not forgotten

      Has Michael D. been insensitive towards Irish Jews, like the representative council suggests? I think they’re conflating the problems of Irish Jews and the Israelis. 

      If the Jewish community doesn’t want him present, fair enough, but I feel to see the reasoning behind this body’s claims. 

    15. Puzzled-Forever5070 on

      He never once criticised Jews or belittled the holocaust. If they make anti zionism and anti genocide antisemitic then we’ll actually start being antisemitic. Ridiculous

      How many times do we have to say it? We don’t have a problem with Jews. We have a problem with the Israel. There’s plenty of Jews that have a problem with Israel too. Get over yourselves.

    17. Rich_Macaroon_ on

      Ffs there were more than jewish people killed in the holocaust. Catholic nuns, gay and lesbian community members and roma to name some off the top of my head. Probably the same train of thought that has the israeli government objecting to the Armenia’s using the word holocaust too.

    18. SexyBaskingShark on

      Then there should be no commemoration. He’s our elected head of state, he should not be blocked from speaking at events like this

    19. Transylvaniangimp on

      He’s such a tiny loose cannon. What are we gonna be like as a nation when we elect our next president and they’re just some bell end who tows the line like all other politicians?

      Michael D has set the tone for what this job should be.  I only want to see fiery little liberal leprechaun presidents on the ballot from now on. Being an octogenarian helps as well, he has no fucks left to give. He’d show up to that event and absolutely scorched earth policy the Israelis  in his speech. Let the furious little tweed clad man speak! 

    20. AllezLesPrimrose on

      Zionists thinking they have a monopoly on who gets to choose to commemorate the Holocaust is so transparent as to not even be worth discussion beyond pointing out the absolute absurdity of it.

    21. Slightly off topic, I have it in my mind, from decades ago civics classes, that the President does not speak publicly on political matters without the consent of government.
      But google doesn’t bring up if that’s a law, a rule, a convention, or even is something I am just imagining remembering.

      Anyone know if that’s right?

      Just with the speeches by the President in the news lately, it’s been a question in the back of my head if someone in the government approved the speeches or not. Genuine curiosity about the mechanics of these things.
