Ireland Stands up to Israel

Irish President Michael Higgins stated that the Israeli occupation has violated many provisions of international law and breached the sovereignty of three countries: Lebanon, Syria, emphasizing that Benjamin Netanyahu seeks to establish settlements in Egypt.

Higgins condemned Israel’s labeling of Dublin as “antisemitic” after it announced its support for the Palestinian people, stressing that it is dangerous to label a state as such merely for disagreeing with the Israeli Prime Minister.

The comment came after Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar branded Higgins an antisemite amid the ministry’s decision to close the Israeli embassy in Dublin.
