Great to make a start on our groovy new engraved col rings (series GA00-99) for WTEs in Ireland, replacing wing tagging as unique identifiers in the field. Tks to @GlengarriffWood @DamianClarke9 @AlanMc_23 for tree climbing and bird handling @npwsBioData @_BTO

Conor McKeon: The bottom line is Ireland must not send teams to play in Israel independent.ie/sport/conor-mc… Israel is a terror state. Sanctions Now. #showisraeltheredcard

BREAKING: Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir says PM Benjamin Netanyahu is “morally bankrupt” for ALLOWING aid into Gaza and demands the complete starvation of Palestinians. This is not a redeemable society.

From orange orchards to an utter wasteland Genocide means not just killing 60k civilians, bombing and starving 2.2 million Palestinians, hospitals, medics, journalists. But destroying all life. Israel is a terror state

Imagine this: Settlers stole 3 sheep from my neighbours , and then came back at night — with full Israeli military support— to steal a fourth. From the same family. The same brutality. This isn’t about sheep. It’s about power, humiliation, and erasing Palestinian life.

"I witnessed the IDF firing a main gun tank round into a crowd of people, destroying a car of civilians...I witnessed mortar rounds being fired at crowds of people...They are criminal. And I have fought ISIS...In my entire career I have never witnessed [this] level of brutality."

Israel is “easing” restrictions on aid that they said they weren’t restricting… Remember the Gaza pier? The airdrops? The stories of opening more crossings? A new aid plan? This is just another PR stunt. Israel is starving Gaza and committing genocide, that’s still the story.

So a band of activists — #HandalaFlotilla — can try to stand up to imperial Israel but BRICS and the UNGA and The Hague Group and the Arab League and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation all can’t do a damn thing?

Thanks to @Trickstersworld and @williamhboney1 for the opportunity to discuss - amongst many other things - how Irish media has talked (or not talked) about Palestine

“They teach their children to hate” Every accusation is a confession.

This is hugely important news. The Occupied Territories Bill I tabled in 2018 was clear, and the ICJ agreed in 2024 - we must end all trade with the illegal Israeli settlements, both goods & services. Today's vote in favour from the FA Ctte is a crucial step towards that,…

Palestinian men in one of the few boats not destroyed fishing for their starving families. Israeli gunboats arrive & take them hostage to an unknown location. All evidence suggests they'll likely be tortured & raped by these thugs. Europe supports this

So many good people doing so many good things for Gaza. Please share and support in any way you can 🙏🏻🙏🏻

When the Israeli 🇮🇱 Knesset lawmakers vote 71-13 in favour of illegally annexing the West Bank 🇵🇸 It’s never been ‘defence’ It’s always been a land grab.

🇫🇷 - I will offer full commentary on France's recognition of the State of Palestine when France recognises the State of Palestine. Meanwhile, this is a good opportunity to kindly remind France and other states: 1. of their non-derogable obligation to realise the inalienable…

🇩🇪 Fully aware this is beyond my UN remit. BUT. As a conscientious European I ask: will anyone confront Germany for its POLICE’s shameful, sustained, and widespread violence that, after a year, reveals an institutionalized descent into repression? While too many Germans remain,…

I have never felt so shaken. Children are dying of hunger. Falling one after another, like petals of a dying flower. Under our watch. How do you sleep, Presidents, Foreign Ministers, political leaders, diplomats, civil servants - doing nothing to stop Israel’s starvation…

Even if all the aid is allowed into Gaza immediately, as it must be, it is too late for many of the most vulnerable and malnourished. This forced starvation of Palestinians is a choice - by Israel and by every government that doesn't sanction it, by the US, the EU. Eternal shame.

It is unbelievable how nonchalantly leaders like @kajakallas and @vonderleyen continue to ignore (and stand against) intl law and the decisions of the highest intl Courts re Israel: among others, I shall remind them, the ICJ ordered Israel to: - withdraw its troops and remove…

RTE is a disgrace. “Herr Hitler’s National Socialist government has said it is not responsible for the shortage of food in the Belsen humanitarian camp…”
