1. Steps also need to be taken to make sure something like that doesn’t happen again.

2. So they did this whilst the occupied territories bill is still pending? Either they don’t care or they’re incompetent, I’d believe both.

3. There was a left wing Israeli tech guru who set up a software development centre in Gaza, trying to develop the economy/skills as well as write code for his business

   Not all investment is bad

4. I know successive government has failed young people massively over the last 15 years but I’ve never been prouder to be Irish than the last 2 months.
