Today marks the UN International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. Solidarity is needed more now than ever before in light of the unchecked slaughter being visited upon the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank by the Israel Defense Forces and illegal settlers. It also comes at a time when Israel is poised to vote on budget plans to further expand the illegal settlements on occupied Palestinian territories in the West Bank. While the Irish position recognises the illegal nature of the settlements, this Government has made the Irish taxpayer complicit in the illegal enterprise by holding shares in business entities operating within these illegal settlements. Will the Government finally do the right thing, take action and stand up for international law by supporting the Sinn Féin Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill?
