      Why did she feel like she needed to bring her gender and her motherhood into it? Are men without kids all war mongerers?

      Also, she seems very detached from reality. Russia started the war by invading and killing innocent Ukrainians. What are they expected to do? Are they not allowed to defend themselves. Should they lay down their arms and offer some of their country in the name of peace? What does she think the wider implications are for Europe if we start allowing Russia to nibble off bits of our countries unchallenged?

      “As a mother” – well, that changes everything now that you’ve said that.

      Where was her talk of warmongering when she was a guest of the Assad regime eating spoonfulls of shit out his asshole as he was murdering civilians by the bushel.

      Between herself and Michael D doing the hard yards for autocrats worldwide, there’s something in the water in Galway.

      Reminds me of Andrea Leadsom (I think it was?) when she tried to imply Teresa May having no children was an inherent negative and inferiority; have no time for those who weaponise motherhood as a platform for superiority.

      Also, that clip really showed Connolly’s disingenuous bonafides in attempting to spin Trump’s disgusting, outrageous “peace plan” as in any way equitable for the Ukrainians. The “peace at any cost” crowd do my nut in, like the end result is what matters and damn the consequences or sacrifices.

      In Germany they have the term Putinversteherin to describe people like Connolly, usually left wing individuals who try to deflect criticism from Russian President Putin and Russia and lay blame on Ukraine, NATO, the EU,….

      As a human being, I find people who parrot Russian propaganda, whilst the state engages in a brutal war to further their fascist imperialism, to be disgusting traitors to humanity.

      She’s no different than a MAGAt or a hasbara.

      She’s a nice lady and good at lobbying for the rights of the vulnerable. But she has no idea about Ukraine or the simple fact that sometimes you have to fight. Talk of ending the war with Russia with diplomacy is naive and just shows that she’s not prepared to say an obvious truth of of fear of compromising her image

      Why do TV stations and radio stations have these fools on . Do they live in the real world ???

    8. ulankford on

      She never explains what to do when diplomacy fails.
      Most people agree that Jaw-Jaw is better than War-War, but sometimes in history there are cases where it’s inevitable. What does one do then?

      Appeasement does not lead to peace.

      Maybe she was absent from school the day they covered that history lesson.

      Is there any hope that we will wake up and grow up without serious shit happening to us first?
      Like would it really be so bad for us to adopt something similar to the Swiss or Finnish models of defence? To just make ourselves a porcupine at the very least.
      Are we gonna have to learn this lesson the hard way?

      Peace and liberal democracy are worth defending, with weapons ffs.

      There was a time when I swore I’d never vote FF. But fair fucks to Billy Kelleher for his sense and speaking up constantly on this over the last few years.

      Now imagine her going to bat for a land for peace deal between Israel and Palestine, whereby the Palestinians are cast in the role of Ukraine for this scenario.

      This coming from that went on an expenses paid trip to Assads Syria.

      She is also pushing the debunked Russian talking point re the 2022 March peace deal. It’s funny how those who cite this never go into the details of it and what the Russians demanded.

      Ukraine would have to introduce Russification laws to remove and wipe out the role of the Ukraine language and culture.

      They would have a veto on the head of state to be elected, the army reduced to less the 50k and limit the weapon systems they could posess inorder to make it easier for Russia to intervene, in addition Russia would have a right of veto over the international response meaning they could de facto declare it an internal matter.

      Russia would annexe the territory it was currently occupying.

      Russia would have a veto over an international agreements including association and or membership of the EU.

      They idea this was a genuine peace deal and not a surrender document is Russian propaganda.

      Before the Russian invasion of Ukraine I would have said she had a great chance of becoming the next president. Now people are beginning to see her for who she really is.
