The denigration of the UN from Martin is part and parcel with the desire to remove the triple lock, it's quite clear from his lack of condemnation of America and Israel what "rules-based international order" he supports.

Not much of a difference between the militarily aggressive NATO members and the supine fellow-travellers who cheer on breaches of international law and extra-judicial murder? […]

Even if we had the ability to emergency evacuate thousands of Irish Citizens, current #TripleLock means we could only send 12 members of the Defence Forces to carry it out.

Taoiseach Should Condemn US and Israel Attack on Iran - Paul Murphy Paul Murphy calls on Taoiseach to condemn US and Israel attack on Iran. White House St Patrick’s Day visit must be cancelled. Only the Triple Lock prevents the Government sending Irish troops on US-led missions.

Protecting Ireland’s Triple Lock isn’t just policy. The people of Ireland spoke clearly in 4 constitutional referendums.

Mr Martin said he had serious concerns that a referendum could “straitjacket the Government democratically forever” in relation to the country’s security and defence capabilities.

Ah Micheál, maybe the public quite sensibly want the government straitjacketed when it comes to defense policy.

The Triple Lock protects Irish neutrality and is the Irish people’s conditional permission to our government to allow it to send Irish troops abroad into harm’s way.

If the Irish government wants to change those conditions,then it must hold a referendum.

The Irish people permit our government to send our troops into harm's way in limited circumstances (via the Triple Lock)

If the government want us to give them greater powers to send troops into harm's way, then they should hold a referendum.

Irish Govt cannot “Triple Lock” itself out of capability crisis

For all the talk about mandates and #P5 vetoes, we risk ignoring a simple truth: it doesn’t matter what deployment mechanism you use if you don’t have enough troops or equipment to deploy.

Retaining the #TripleLock means that the US, Russia, China, France and UK can veto a decision by the Irish government AND parliament to deploy more than 12 Irish Defence Forces personnel overseas for peacekeeping and peace support. It denies sovereignty, undermines democracy and erodes neutrality.

The irony of the #TripleLock and #neutrality issue in #Ireland is that in the event of European War Three no one is going to take a blind piece of notice. Belligerents, that is, Russia and NATO members, will fight and if Ireland has strategic value, they will do whatever they need to, regardless. 🤷‍♂️

In conclusion, your views are dogmatic rather than factual. Nothing in existing international (EU, NATO, OSCE, African Union or other) arrangements 'squanders' Irish neutrality.

Rather, the #TripleLock denies Irish sovereignty and undermines Irish democarcy.

It must go. And you know it.

Patrick Bresnihan, Associate Professor in Department of Geography at Maynooth University, continues to spread disinformation regarding the #TripleLock and #neutrality. He can't counter arguments with facts, so he blocks people. Should @maynoothuniversity.ie have such a dogmatist teaching students? 🤔

Yikes 😦
“The Government has rejected an Oireachtas committee recommendation for a formal legal review before troops are sent abroad, though it is considering an annual review of missions.”

No questions allowed!! 🫠🤦🏾‍♀️

Mad to get stuck in & mad for the end of Irish neutrality 🤦🏾‍♀️☹️

Maybe they’re trying to get it done before Ireland holds the EU Presidency? Read the article because we’re about to go through massive changes in Irish defence forces.

There are those who would tell the people of #Ireland lies in order to defend the so-called #TripleLock, which gives the nuclear states of the Security Council (US, Russia, China, France, UK + Israel, Pakistan, India if it is enlarged) the right to veto Irish Government + parliamentary decisions.

Reality: The #TripleLock is a legislative guarantee that the UN Security Council (US, Russia, China, France, UK, possibly *Israel*, India and Pakistan in future) has the final say and right to veto sovereign decisions by the Government AND Dáil (representing the *people*) to deploy troops overseas.

Cabinet set to dismantle triple lock as it amends laws over deploying Irish troops Ministers are expected to approve a series of amendments to new laws which would dismantle Ireland’s triple lock system

I don't think the amendments really change the substance of this, ultimately it's just clearing the way for dubious definitions of what a "peacekeeping" mission actually is.

4) The reality that the Irish Government and Dáil Éireann (parliament) do not have the final say in how Irish Defence Forces personnel are deployed overseas to peacekeeping and collective defence missions.

The #TripleLock means that the US, Russia, China, UK and France (UNSC*) have the final say.

GOLDHAWK HAS never witnessed such a full-on campaign by government media, academia and other power centres as in the run-up to Christmas when propagators of a European army and a European war went 1nto overdrive. Fearful that EU states would disrespect us. the Irish comprador elite fought as never before in a near- hysterical attack on neutrality Micheál Martin buttressed overtly. for perhaps the first time, by elements of finance and business

The Irish toy soldiers were initially prompted in this latest campaign by their 'betters' in Paris and London, with France`s chief of defence staff. General Fabien Mandon, insulting his own citizens who, he said in November, lack the "strength of soul" to stand up to Vladimir Putin.

Ireland forbids foreign military aircraft use of Irish airspace while on active military operations.

So why did it happen yesterday?

@conorgallagher.bsky.social tried to get answers.

They’re not saying.

Very relevant to Ireland where the Government wants to change the long-standing law giving effect to this Charter provision.
