So the US have a "game plan" for their murder and destruction in Iran.
As though it was something they've engaged in for amusement.

Ah yes, the intolerable threat of nuclear weapons ...
You should have a word with your staff in the Office of Defense Programs Donald. Also with Israel, the UK, France, Russia, China, India, and Pakistan. And of course North Korea.
No need to contact any of the other 186 States.

I hope a Nato proof room is one that Nato cannot get into.

Reforming the Child Care Act is political.
Opposing genocide is political.
But saying the political out loud is frowned upon when it relates to one of these.
Can you believe that a lie as ridiculous as this - that 14 million people are going to suddenly arrive into a country of 5 million - has to be debunked!
"Global pressure does little to stop Israelβs anti-Palestinian policies."
So we need more global pressure. Because the genocide and ethnic cleansing is utterly unacceptable.

It shouldn't be too hard "to think this thing through".

The change in how the rules on eligibility for citizenship are being applied is desperately unfair on people who've spent years in the asylum system. Like many other measures being taken by government now, it makes newcomers feel unwelcome, adds to their stress & trauma, and serves no useful purpose
This is like saying someone doesn't have to seek authorisation from Dept of Transport to be the getaway driver for a bank robbery!
Minister Timmy Dooley is intentionally avoiding the real issue, which is that people are being taken through Shannon in shackles by ICE.

"The State cannot claim it lacks capacity. It has police, it has a military, it has an airport. It simply refuses to apply scrutiny to US-linked flights in the way it would to almost any other perceived security concern."

Three and a half days after the ICE flight through Shannon Airport. Multiple phone calls and emails to the Gardai, and we've heard nothing from them on what action they took to investigate. I've been told by one officer that there is nothing on the PULSE record except my initial report.
ICE flight refuels in Ireland again before landing in Egypt; Irish activist pressed police to investigate. gillianbrockell.ghost.io/ice-flight-r...
Another Journey Aviation plane has just landed at Shannon. Is it carrying ICE deportees, shackled to seats while the plane is refuelled?
So what's another word for an anti-anti-fascist?

Limerick was out in solidarity with Palestinians again today.
There is no ceasefire in #Gaza ... we will continue to oppose the #genocide.

Its a shocking indicator of how complicit the Irish government and their authorities are in the illegal violence of the US and Israel.

We don't let newspapers accept any form of violent or explicit material in their ads, and say its up to individual users not to publish harmful images. Similarly, there should be restrictions on what online platforms can publish/distribute.
Well done @rte.ie
Now we need to see other cultural and sporting organisations refusing to engage with repesentatives of the Israeli state.

Maybe Oireachtas members who won't nominate someone to contest the presidential election do so because they think they would not make a good president.
Or maybe they don't like how her candidacy could be used to target vulnerable groups & make Ireland a less compassionate place.
An unfair representation of the situation faced by asylum seekers by the Minister.
He surely knows that there is nowhere for them to go. And that local authorities are failing to provide them with emergency accommodation.

The fixation the ultraconservatives have with migration is tiring.
Its good. Its necessary. And the majority of the 80 million strong Irish diaspora who've benefited from it would probably all agree.
There are governments and businesses all over Europe whose inaction is leading to this.
Hey @news.rte.ie - why do you keep giving airtime to a war criminal? #GazaGenocide
Tomorrow! Clare, North Tipperary & Limerick IPSC march together in solidarity with our Palestinian sisters and brothers in @ipsc.bsky.social regional day of action. We demand immediate sanctions from our government to stop apartheid Israel's genocide of Palestinians
