Kildare Cllr Tom McDonnell addresses the fuel protest crowd in Dublin with calls to forget about Palestine/Israel. Empty the IPAS centres and rage bait the more than willing crowd over attacks on Irish people by African males. But it's all about the fuel crisis right?!

"there must be no impunity for these criminal acts"

3,500 people lost their lives over 30 years in the Northern Ireland Troubles. Yesterday, Israel killed 254 Lebanese people in a single day. If Britain and the IRA etc had killed at that rate, 2.7 million would have died.

💔 Al Jazeera Mubasher correspondent Mohammed Samir Washah has been killed in Gaza following an Israeli drone strike on his car. Over 262 journalists have been murdered (assasinated) by ‘Israel’ since the start of the genocide in Gaza. You murder journalists when your enemy is the truth.

NEW: Lebanon is Gaza 2.0. That’s what Israeli ministers are saying in their own words. Believe them. 1/ www.thenerve.news/p/lebanon-wa...

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

Can’t believe I’m living in unprecedented times where the Liveline callers will finally get to see the army called in after all these years.

Funniest thing is that every single one of these protesters has spoken the words "you know what they should do? They should call the army in" at least once in their lives

Iranian women in 1953 were in college. In the workforce. Gaining rights. Today they are arrested for showing their hair. The United States and Britain overthrew a secular democracy and created the conditions for a theocracy. We are now bombing their universities. This is the receipt.

Of course it’ll be no surprise to anyone that Tom is friendly with Ireland’s premier sexual & physical assaulter, especially after he found Jesus. #speirgorm

Exactly. I cant think of any credible farmer (during Spring) , burning a few tanks of (very expensive ) diesel to saunter up the motorway and block up half the bloody national road network .

Odd to recall that, confronted with atrocities like this, the choice of a Labour government was to criminalise protest against it.

Spain and Italy have demanded explanations from Israel after the country’s soldiers in Lebanon detained a Spanish United Nations peacekeeper and fired warning shots at an Italian convoy. www.politico.eu/article/span...

Israel is waging war on Lebanon. Why is the world calling it a "ground operation"? I’ve known Lebanon for three decades. What’s happening there now is an invasion. This is Gaza 2.0 – and the world is barely paying attention. By Carole Cadwalladr www.thenerve.news/p/lebanon-wa...

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has called for the EU to end its Association Agreement with Israel.

How you sort out far right activists blockading your city under a populist pretext. Worked for Canada in 2022.

I fully support people's right to protest but I don't support far right bullshit pretending to be about farmers and hauliers and I can't recall another protest ever being allowed to bring the city to a halt for 36 hours and still going without any consequences whatsoever

How you sort out far right activists blockading your city under a populist pretext. Worked for Canada in 2022.

I see the Irish Nazi’s are out supporting the fuel people as well. It’s almost as if it isn’t just about fuel …….

#BREAKING | Al Jazeera journalist Mohammed Washah was killed in the Gaza Strip after his car was targeted by an Israeli patrol.

No mention of any research to back this up. It is also surely possible that teachers who continue to foster critical and creative thinking and communication skills will in fact be the most valuable? #speirgorm

We will soon find out if Trump has any control over Israel or whether Netanyahu is actually running the US government.

Pakistan: Lebanon is part of the ceasefire Iran: Lebanon is part of the ceaefire US: Lebanon is part of the ceasefire Lebanon: Lebanon is part of the ceasefire Israel: We bombed Lebanon 100 times in 10 minutes

The person, Christopher Duffy, being interviewed by Newstalk and other media organisations, is a well-known far right agitator and outright racist. His Facebook page regularly posts and shares racist content, conspiracy theories and worse. He seems to be one of the main organisers behind all this.

Lebanese Red Cross chief warning of many dead and wounded, asking citizens to clear roads for ambulances. Hospitals are appealing for blood, all types. Strikes hit crowded residential areas in #Beirut. #lebanon

Israel bombing damages Tehran synagogue.

Massacre upon massacre in Beirut in the last hour. AUBMC announced a “code disaster.” Over 100 airstrikes in 10 minutes across the country. One hit right behind my house. Sirens ambulances & the smell of sulphur. The city is in total chaos the people in complete panic

Israel hit all over Beirut. Strikes were in nearly all the neighborhoods surrounding my house. Reports saying many injured and dead. Israel seems to be intensifying before a ceasefire is implemented

If I blocked O'Connell Street with my car it would towed away pretty quickly so why is the this not done here @garda.ie ?? Is there a different law for noisy lobby groups??

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

Dublin clampers have the opportunity to do the funniest thing right now...

BTW the people who spent the last few years advocating for Palestine were clearly 100% right that normalizing war crimes and genocide there would just increase the likelihood of inhumane actions elsewhere. Just saying.

Israeli Channel 13 has launched a live countdown for Trump’s deadline on Iran, as if it were a New Year’s Eve celebration.

Remember how you felt about people defending their neighbors in Chicago, Minneapolis, and other cities around the US? Extend that empathy a bit further, to people Trump is calling animals. It may hurt to stop and think about how much you have in common with those people. That's okay. Let it.

A grim milestone in Lebanon Israeli attacks have now killed over 1500 people in the country. This includes 130 children and 57 medical workers.

HOW IS THIS REAL???

This is real

If climate protesters had blocked roads for as long as the fuel protesters did, there would be people on the radio demanding the army be called in to shoot them all

😳

One of the very best from Clickhole

Whether it's Trump threatening a nuclear war on Truth Social or Hillary Clinton sharing risotto recipes by email, both leaders made controversial use of digital communication.

The President of the USA declaring that "a whole civilisation will die tonight" is not something that arrives out of a vacuum. It is precipitated by the widespread international failure to hold USA, Israel, and their allies including the UK, accountable for their actions for many decades

to be clear, the civilization that will die tonight if Trump tries to annihilate Iran will be that of the United States, the one he has always degraded most relentlessly and most successfully

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

That spaceship is ironically named because The Dark Side of the Moon was actually an arty HIT

Anyway, we should not stop talking about because Israel got away with Gaza because of western complicity they are doing the same thing again in Lebanon and won’t stop there

Israeli soldiers are detonating entire villages in South Lebanon while taking selfies. Ancient mosques, churches, cemeteries, schools, hospitals - all being obliterated by the genocidal regime www.instagram.com/reel/DWrg5xi...

Okay, SNL UK, respect.
