  1. Many people have the wrong idea about Ireland which enjoys a reputation for caring about the Palestinians. This is only by way of contrast to other Anglophone countries such as the USA, Britain, Canada, etc. Yes, comparison with English-speaking countries, the most prominent countries of The West, Ireland appears to be doing something and recently got a lot of praise for recognizing the Palestinian state. How effective was the recognizinition of the Third Reich by the Irish Free State in April 1945, one could ask, when an Irish delegation to the German embassy expressed condolences on the death of their Leader? Big deal. The Irish recognized the dying Palestine only after years of shaming and votes in the parliament there which have been ignored by successive conservative governments. Ireland is a conservative country with conservative governments. Goods from the illegal settlements on the West Bank are freely available in Irish supermarkets marked "Product of Israel" as I type. The main opposition party has been asking for this to be stopped but the government won't move. Expect no action by the Irish government on its airspace being violated by goods aircraft helping the Israelis.
