PS: Interesting

Oliver Sears is the founder of Holocaust Awareness Ireland. 'Irish politicians line up to be photographed with the community on Holocaust Memorial Day,' he writes, 'But those same politicians will not stand up publicly now to denounce the explosion of antisemitic rhetoric that has spilled into the public arena, including both houses of parliament.'....

It seems the hard Left is behind that surge in Ireland...as they are in other european countries too...anti-semitism becomes anti-zionism becomes anti-colonialism and what not...think Greta Thunberg as a gov leader!

Hopefully that ideological epidemic runs its course and out and ends again soon!

....and I gave them, did you read them?

A state sponsored hate is per definition done by the government. Not one journalists essay, not an attack on the street...no...it's the big things, things only a gov can do!

No german gov is imaginable supporting Pali terrorists or ignoring such an international declaration....isn't it obvious?

Why are you trying to whitewash the irish gov? To ignore what they do? Do you think Israel would not much rather have their embassy still open in Dublin, having normal relationships with another friendly country available?

Do you think it's all a lie what the ambassador posted? An israeli hallucination? Why should Israel be hostile to Ireland?

I guess what the israeli ambassador posted is true? That Ireland never even recognized the official definition?

commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/policies/justice-and-fundamental-rights/combatting-discrimination/racism-and-xenophobia/combating-antisemitism/definition-antisemitism_en

The EU did....so did (after last standing) 43 other countries (so have Germany, GB, France and the US between others btw.)

holocaustremembrance.com/resources/working-definition-antisemitism

It isn't a difficult or complicated thing....it is not really even legally binding....so, if you as a gov don't do it that means that you really, really, really don't want it...purposely! Okay...your choice.

But to support the Pali terrorists in such a time, after the horrible things they just did, with the world watching full of horror, in a way that even Hamas praises you....now that is a totally different level.

There is something more behind such an action, an active hostility, by the state...sorry!

Off-Topic / 75 Years of Israel and the War - part 3 [580]


These numbers are not what they meant to be....Germany for one, as GB, has lotsa more muslim immigrants than Ireland....especially in the recent decade these people and their attacks are muddling these statistics now enormously!

I guess this is the true reason why Israel closes it's embassy in Ireland and not in Germany or GB or France for that matter...they make a difference between imported and state supported anti-semitism!

...from their account on X:

Today, I have instructed the closure of Israel's Embassy in Ireland. The actions, double standards, and antisemitic rhetoric of the Irish government against Israel are rooted in efforts to delegitimize and demonize the Jewish state.

The Irish government recognized a "Palestinian state" during attacks on Israel (a move praised by Hamas), attempted to redefine 'genocide' in international law to support baseless claims against Israel at the ICJ, backed politically motivated cases at the ICC, promoted anti-Israel measures within the EU, and fostered hostility toward Israel.

Notably, Ireland is one of the few European countries that has not adopted the IHRA definition of antisemitism, and its government has failed to take effective measures to combat the surge of antisemitism within Ireland.

Israel will focus its resources on strengthening bilateral relations with countries worldwide, according to priorities that also take into account the attitudes and actions of these states toward Israel.

It seems there is more behind it....maybe they are truly antisemites?

They have also a stronger, more intense catholic history than most other countries, haven't they? Maybe there is a connection......

Not wanting to let muslims become our "best pupils", won't we....

You might be gullible, we aren't!

....maybe it's easier for a German to accept that these goals exist...Muslims can't talk **** to us about that. "Been there, done that!"


Really!

Proof!!!!

They don't want just "land", or peace....they always wanted only one thing: dead Jews!

The ICC lost it, as did the UN before.....anti-semitism is ripe! What would they do when Israel stops defending itself, being overran by it's enemies, Jews being killed again....shedding a lying tear before going over to the next point on the agenda?

Israel better never listens to these "people" and keeps doing what needs to be done for its safety! They just can't depend on the "international community", never could!

I wonder how the ICC wants to get to the old man, sending kidnappers? :)

USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]


My theory: Leftism generally is an ideology for the well fed academia! It's no accidence that Communism was developed by Marx/Engels back then in Germany, as the german speaking region has been somewhat top dog socially and economically, leading in chair farters.

Now the wealth and comfort focus has shifted to the US and the english speaking West...but since the breakdown 1989 and the to liberating masses liberated themselves totally uplanned from the actual existing Socialism/Communism the whole ideology needed to be reworked, got a new name and some modifications fitting the Zeitgeist...and voila!

USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]


.....and frankly give a ****!

USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]

Exactly!

But these refugees want to drive cars, want to buy artificial products, want to eat meat and lots of it, they are a big part for our western industries continuing success, the consumers keep coming.

They for sure don't want to live in wood or stone huts, eat plants and seeds, drive bicycles and wear self made clothing from free living animals....they could lead lifes with barely any carbon-footprint at all at home, but that is what they want to escape from.

All this open borders - refugees welcome crap is as self destructive to any green movement in the western countries like nothing else....these people keep the fossils burning!

Thing is, it will be people like Musk who will "save" the world....you know?

No Gender-speecher....no LBQTsomething-people.....no wokeism will be any help when the big climate change really starts changing the planet and our environments.

No socialist will be able to do anything! It will be the engineers who will develop the needed high-tech....it will be the scientists finding new ways to save mankind...it will be the "doer"....the "maker"....not the "pen-pusher" and nice-talker.

Musk with his money, his brains, his ambitions, his big plans belongs to the very few people who could do something to stop the worst, or at least help us to survive it all....that talk of boykotting him because of politicial differences sounds abit well....funny...knowing all that! Or not so funny at all...

.....Mr. Musk, by contrast, has consistently said he thinks climate change is a problem - although he has sometimes wavered on how urgent that problem is. He has long been a major proponent of shifting to low-emissions technology like solar power, batteries and electric vehicles..

Wealthy, influential celebrities with millions of followers and equally millions of regular income promising to "flee" the country should Trump win....frankly I can't take these people seriously....they just don't have an idea what they are talking about!!!!
Not about oppression in a dictatorship....not what it means to be truly oppressed and threatened by a gov....nor what an upstanding, brave citizen should do in such a case!

Looking back and comparing....that WAS unusual in the european history, wasn't it....the occupied being better off than the occupier!

But the near-western-standard-land-of-our-dreams hat been always Hungary, the #1 in the whole socialist bloc, for Germans at least....for Poles too?

....not on a personal level....and it's that which makes always all the differences!

PS: I later heard several times that a stationing in the GDR was seen by the common Russian also as the main Lottery prize! Hard to get, especially without connections...:)

Eastern Germans felt privileged compared to the here stationed "Ivan", we didn't felt especially opressed by them, rather pitied them....as I grew up the GDR was better off than the "Motherland of the Socialism"...we had a higher living standard as even seen in Moskau, were better fed....that wasn't your usual "occupied country", I guess....especially not compared to what we Germans did in our "zones of occupations" only a few decades earlier.

I don't want to paint a to rosy picture here, there were surely difficulties, but then came Perestroika and especially Gorbatschow and Germany, yes the whole of us, East and West, just fell in love, you can't explain it otherwise...and frankly said, if it were only about our leadership we would still suffer that drearyness of Honecker and his gang of arseholes...but Gorbatschow didn't want to send the Panzers even as East-Berlin asked him too to save them and we will never forget that...

Yeah...Germans! :)
