  1. I genuinely worry for his safety if he travels to Palestine. I don’t think there’s a big change that anything will happen to him, however I am still worried for him.

    Israel has been bombing everyone in Palestine indiscriminately. It doesn’t matter if they are innocent men, women, children, paramedics, journalists, whoever.

    Israel is well known for writing off unneeded deaths as collateral damage when attacking who they claim are Hamas.

    Having the leader of a country that is not well liked by Zionists in Israel go there is going to be controversial and will be a highly charged meeting on the Israeli side I’m sure.

    I’d say it will be heartbreaking if he is allowed to meet those on the Palestinian side because, remember, Israel desires who goes in and out and they can claim a security issue and those meetings may never take place.

    Hopefully he can make his visits and make it back safe.

    Edit: Martin is obviously A leader here but not THE leader lol

  2. Something that would not be possible if we booted out their ambassador like the opposition are shouting for and soon to be voting for.

  3. Better not visit Gaza the Israelis won’t let him out again.

  4. Don’t like him much generally but I have to admire the gesture.

  5. Has he not been watching the news? Better to go to Lanzarote or Malaga.

  6. MM has been in contact with Iran as well. Maybe Ireland’s condemnation of both Hamas savage massacre and Israeli savage onslaught on a population has registered that we can offer some links others might not have. Equally there are over 300 Irish troops in Lebanon and at least one Irish child being held hostage in what’s left of Gaza.

    All we can do is wish MM success in trying to get her home and to ensure no more Irish troops die on UN duty in Lebanon.

  7. It seems dodgy, I’d say there’s a fairly high chance of some looper trying to attack him.

  8. There is not a hope in hell he will be going near Palestine…

  9. He should wear a go pro and live stream the whole thing. No fake news bullshit. Let the world see what it’s really like. Not a fan of his, but fair fucks to him. Safe travels MM.

  10. Have these people not suffered enough. This could be seen as an aggressive action. /s
