Gino Kenny (PBP), Dublin Mid-West

Over the past eight days, the state of Israel has rained terror and murder on the people of Gaza. In those eight days, more than 200 people have been killed, including 60 children, murdered for doing nothing, murdered because they were Palestinian. The world is watching while the state of Israel conducts collective punishment against the Palestinian people on occupied lands. When is the right time to expel the Israeli ambassador to Ireland? If it is not now, when will it be? This has been going on for generations. The Israeli Government, with impunity, has murdered and caused terror to the Palestinian people. We in Ireland should know. We have been occupied and brutalised by another oppressor. When is the time to expel the Israeli ambassador and show solidarity with the world and the Palestinian people?
