REVEALED: It took 18 months, and multiple FOI battles, but we can now reveal Ireland approved €20 million in military-capable dual-use exports to the IDF and Israeli Ministry of Defense during the height of its military assault on Gaza in 2024.

Irish journalists showed up today in solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza - speaking out against Israel's targeted killing of our colleagues as a united front.

We urge all Irish reporters & concerned citizens to join us at 6pm today at The Spire to stand against the targeting of colleagues in Gaza. If we stay silent, we fail our courageous colleagues & facilitate a new norm where brave reporters on the frontline are legitimate targets.

Kitty O'Brien has done more & sacrificed more to support journalists in Gaza in one day than the majority of Western reporters put together have done over the last 22 months.

41 years ago, 11 female Dunnes workers went on strike, refusing to handle South African fruit. Their act had little economic impact but was huge for the anti-apartheid movement. Is the OTB that moment now for Gaza? And is is why the US lobby is so scared?
“Window dressing” or precedent-setting? All eyes on how the Occupied Territories Bill takes shape

The EU can't even agree to suspend Israel from potential future research funding. Western powers are entirely morally bankrupt at this stage. euronews.com/my-europe/2025…

Western media, including Irish outlets, are failing the Palestinian people and our own profession by our reporting on Gaza. My take today in @thecurrency. Would appreciate a read. It is far beyond time for reporters to get their act together on this.

This is such a shameful decision by @IrishTimes to use this sub-heading. It is not even wire copy but from their own contributor in Jerusalem.

During a recent trip to Ireland, @FranceskAlbs held a mirror up to the media & asked if we are reporting accurately on Gaza. The clear answer is no. As I write in @thecurrency, we are failing Palestinians, the international order & our own profession.

I can't believe the @Independent_ie would publish this, and on the same weekend that its main editorial is entitled: "Children of Gaza need more than just empty gestures". They also need Western media to show even a shred of responsibility as to what they publish.

RTE didn't have to print this AFP wire copy - but it did. It didn't have to publish it the day after five Al Jazeera journalists were assassinated by Israel - but it did. This is an editorial choice, plain and simple, and a pretty shameful one too.
