So, Israel is in the process of commiting genocide through forced starvation (with mainly children being the biggest casualties) and O’Gorman is defending her presence at a famine event. You couldn’t make this shit up.
In some positive news, The International Criminal Court has applied for arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant (Israeli Defence Minister) for crimes including ‘starvation’, ‘wilful killing’ and ‘extermination’.
It was a misunderstanding. She thought it was a event in support of the Irish famine.
To pick up a few tips I suppose.
She belongs in a cage like her war criminal mates
> “It is wrong and misleading to equate the Irish famine, in which a million people died, with what is happening in Gaza.”
Whatever you feel about the above statement, if anyone has a right to make the comparison, it’s us, and the fact that we’ve chosen to do so should be taken as a profound statement about the context in which we see the actions of the Israeli government.
Instead though, I have no doubt that it will be once again used as fodder for Netanyahu’s false claims of anti-semitism by Ireland, and what could have been a powerful moment of reflection for the ambassador and her Prime Minister will instead be exploited for political gain by the Israeli far-right.
At what point do governments, not just ours but in general recognise that there’s no value in engaging with Israel?
Speaking of… why don’t *we* recognise the famine as a genocide?
Imagine inviting a neo-nazi to an event in Israel about WW2? Just disgusting altogether.
The Israeli government and politicians in power are truly some of the most disgusting people I’ve read about and the thing that bothers me the most is how people in power just don’t call it out.
She is horrible.
This is a learned helplessness and normalization of fascism article brought to you by right wing tabloid thejournal.
Its serves no purpose other than to rub in our faces that the government is powerless if not subservient to Israel.
> only the Russian Ambassador was not invited
This is unbelievably stupid.
If the food blogging genocide denier can be invited so can the Russian.

Important to note that Irish historians used St Patrick’s Day to [appeal](https://www.irishcentral.com/opinion/others/irish-american-famine-gaza) to Irish Americans on the starvation in Gaza and the starvation in Ireland.
