Ireland Law Maker's speech in parlament is very powerful Re: Israel & Palestine

This speech is so clear to me. He says it all.

Irish support for Palestinian rights stems partly from its own experience of colonialism and violence – but that’s not all writes Una Mullally a columnist for the Irish Times.

In 1980, Ireland was the first member of the European Union to endorse the establishment of a Palestinian state.

About mysteryowl

Mystery Owl --- Recently, I woke up at 12 midnight for no particular reason, went to the front window and look into the night. My eye went up and I was surprised to see something on the tip top of a wooden telephone poll. As my eyes adjusted I could see it was a large owl perched there, sitting all majestic like. It was a great moment.
