The Irish Government will today make a submission at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in a case concerning Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory.
The proceedings follow a December 2022 resolution of the UN General Assembly, meaning they predate the 7 October massacre in Israel and the ensuing hostilities in Gaza.
The assembly has asked the UN’s top court to examine the legal consequences of the “ongoing violation by Israel of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination” due to its prolonged occupation and settlement of Palestinian territories.
The case is entirely separate from the one brought before the same court by South Africa, which alleges Israel is responsible for violations of the Genocide Convention as a result of its military campaign in Gaza.
But it has taken on increased significance in the wake of the current conflict and is likely to increase political pressure on Israel. […]
The General Assembly resolution referred to Israel’s “occupation, settlement and annexation” of Palestinian territory since 1967, including measures related to the city of Jerusalem.
Though the nature of Ireland’s submission has not yet been disclosed, the Government has long opposed the building of illegal Israeli settlements in Palestinian territory. …

Ireland, which had a long bitter fight for their independence, is now ruled by the fiends of Hamas, even as their children in ireland are abused by the invader savages..
They always claim Israel committed offense but the never name or give a specific example.
Yet we have countless examples of Palestinians committing atrocities over the years.
With a fake news headline like that, why read any further?
What Palestinian lands?
There is no such thing as Palestinian land. If they were so great ,why wont any Arab country take them in? They need annihilated. They are nothing but a hodgepodge of killers sent from hell.
If Palestinians want a state let them declare their independence and then either negotiate or fight for land. They don’t want to do that. They never did that and never accepted any partitions. They can’t control themselves or govern themselves responsibly. They want the world to punish Israel for them and they don’t want to concede Israel’s right to exist. So they’ll pocket any UN decisions on land that nobody claims, and still demand Israel and the world provide them food, money, water, sewage, electricity etc while they take no responsibility and no initiative own their own.
… Reality exists in the human mind and nowhere else. Not in the individual mind, which can make mistakes, and in any case soon perishes: only in the mind of the Party, which is collective and immortal. Whatever the Party holds to be the truth is truth. It is impossible to see reality except by looking through the eyes of the Party. …Seems like ever since this was published, the left has tried to make this come to be via control of politics and media.
— 1984, p. 163
A declaration of independence would require them to recognize Israel. But they insist that Israel occupies all of their imaginary state of “Palestine”.
The USSR never died. The governments of the EUSSR insist on keeping their imaginary notion of “Palestinians” alive.
All goes back to that notion of “Arab unity” and “Arab nationalism”, which is certainly one form of “nationalism” that the left will never condemn—which is really pan-Arab imperialism (derived from pan-Germanism).
Ireland should be more concerned about “non-Irish” currently occupying their country
Insignificant green rock says what? I’m waiting to hear what New Caledonia’s opinion on “Palestine” is.
Ireland.
Ireland (my ancestral homeland) was once a proud and decent nation. But thanks to its membership in the European Union it’s become just another tawdry little European cesspool.
And the Indian faggot in charge.
Presently the reality is that Palestine actually isn’t.
There is in the West Bank and Gaza a population with no functioning government nor sovereign status. Those who prattle on about Palestine this or Hamas future that are seriously deluded.
The game being played for years and years is not only over but the “Refugee” camp fictious playing fields are rubble...... dust and chunks and rebar tangles. Even that is in many places scraped down to the dirt and deposited in huge piles by the super effective teams of armored IDF D-9’s.
The old concept of “Refugees” is over. There are now genuine refugees who allowed Hamas to occupy what is now the rubble of their homes and businesses and shops and schools and life.
they sell T-shirts with Orwell saying,
`1984 was meant to be a warning, not an operating manual!’
