Why Jews for Palestine Ireland strongly oppose the incoming Irish government’s adoption of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, in two threads:
STATEMENT
We demand Germany calls for a ceasefire.
We demand Germany stops arming Israel’s genocide.
We demand Germany stops arresting those who oppose genocide.
We hereby issue a notification to the German ambassador about his, and his government’s complicity in genocide.
"The war will never end as long as Netanyahu is in his office. So I'm crying to the world, don't support Netanyahu, don't send us weapons, ships of war. Send us peace. Send us love. Send us reconciliation."
My Hero: Maoz Inon, son of Bilha, 76, and Yakovi, 78, murdered at Netiv HaAsara on October 7th, started a protest tent outside the Israeli parliament in Jerusalem calling Netanyahu to resign and to end the war
Today we gathered at the German Embassy as JEWS AGAINST GENOCIDE met with a German Embassy representative to make and hand over a statement calling on Germany to stop their unconditional support for Zionist Israel. Listen to this profound statement 1/2:
We were very proud to be among the crowd out today in support of these brave students demanding divestment from institutions complicit in the ongoing genocide 🇵🇸
We are organising this protest not only against Germany's carte blanche approval of Israel's indiscriminate bombing of Gaza, but their decision to increase the export of arms that will be used with this exact indifference to human life.
You fast tracked permits to get a tenfold increase in weapon sales to Israel and have spent months arresting your own citizens for peacefully protesting the decision!
Already, the suffering in #Rafah is unfathomable. In an extremely confined space 1.3 million people are seeking shelter from the fighting. A large-scale IDF offensive in Rafah would be a humanitarian catastrophe in the making. The people of #Gaza cannot vanish into thin air. 1/2
