  5. Like I’m very pro Palestine but I would be lying if I was to say I felt great about this. Israel is an oppressive government but these are kids they’re doing this too. By all means do this to politicians and anti-Palestine people but these kids are just trying to play a game

  12. We all know it’s Roman territory. They sacked Jerusalem and tore down the second temple. Until a third temple is built, it’s Roman in my eyes.

  15. There was a Palestine/Israel question in an AskLatinAmerica sub earlier this week. Boi did the israelis got pissed looking at how people support Palestine and condemns Israel’s acts. Aggressive DMs were the norm.

    Well done Ireland.

  18. People here who support Israel are massive hypocrites,

    Let’s go back to the early 1900’s when we were about to have freedom from the British.

    People were starving, homeless, being exploited by the British authorities and were not willing to live like this much longer.

    So people start to rebel, but it hasn’t worked too well so far.

    People in desperation start to join organizations such as the IRA for a glimmer of hope.

    However, the Brits just ramp up oppression.

    So the IRA resorts to violence against the oppressors in order to gain freedom…

    Now we see the same with Palestine and an illegal apartheid state and whether you support Israel or not, it has undeniably violated human rights international law multiple times.

    Shame on you if you support Israel especially when you are from/live in a country thats been through the same as Palestine.

  32. They have an app in israel that helps them find social media posts that are critical of israel so their people can flood it and downvote it and what not. I forget what its called. But the fact you have to have an app like that speaks volumes of the type of people who feel they need it.

    Edit: After some googling i found the app.

    “Act.IL, which describes itself as an “Online Community for Israel.” Act.IL administers a smartphone app that assigns users a series of “missions” intended to boost pro-Israel content across multiple platforms.”

  42. The division of Ireland, much like the division of Palestine was created by foreign powers. By the UN, by the British, with no consultation of the Palestinians. European Zionists taking land without even the agreement of Palestinian jews. Sowing division where there didn’t need to be any.

    Any cruelty done by the Palestinians is the result of continued apartheid, colonialism, and ethnic cleansing with zero peaceful means to bring an end to it. “Peace” is made and then Israel starts taking more land evicting more natives for non Palestinian Jews born in America or Europe. Palestinians protest and are shot. Then Palestinians respond in kind and now suddenly the cameras are on the media cares. Its all a sham. Same shit they did to the Irish. Oh won’t someone feel for the people who wage apartheid? Won’t Irish feel for the poor occupiers of land not theirs given power by those not from that land. The hypocrisy of the Irish defending Israel is insane. Then go on and give your home to the British. I know housing is certainly great right now. Better yet let the brits break down your door and take your home without letting you get a single thing and then continue supporting that same shite for those abroad. It is sickening that there are those who would call themselves Irish and support the awful shite we freed ourselves from onto others.

  47. Yeah im sure the footballers will stop firing missiles into Gaza and bulldozing Palestinian homes. Well played.

    The problem is zionist propagandists and Netanyahu’s cronies. But hey at least a couple athletes are uncomfortable.
