There?s no food getting in so people are starving,? surgeon Tom Potokar says
British doctors working in Gaza have described the territory as a ?slaughterhouse,? where the patients they are treating are severely malnourished.
Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.
Dr. Tom Potokar, a plastic surgeon specializing in burn injuries, has worked in Gaza 16 times but said this mission had revealed a level of destruction far greater than his last visit in 2023,
It is time to talk about the Out of Control Immigration. Mon Mar 31, 2025 22:12 | imc
For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

March to the Israeli embassy
it may very well be up to 19. Al Jazeera are saying "at least 9 and dozens injured". Exact figure remains unclear. Hopefully it will become clearer as activists released from Israeli custody (after being suitably bullied!) get to tell their side of the story
I am not happy that the Irish Antiwar Movement has decided to call a demonstration on Palestine because I feel that this country already has a very effective and vibrant Palestine Solidarity Campaign who I think should be allowed the courtesy of calling these demonstrations.
While everybody has a right to organize protests, and I would encourage as many people as possible to go along, I think its unhelpful that the otherwise moribund IAWM should seek to upstage the IPSC on this issue, The correct thing surely would be for the IAWM people to help organize the demo in the IPSC name, something perfectly easy to do because of the overlapping membership.
This is the usual headline chasing tactics much loved by its owners the SWP whenever some atrocity or other happens in Palestine. When Palestine goes off the front page they go back to doing little or nothing on the issue. Its hard to escape the conclusion that what is going on here is more about the need to build the political profile of a certain gentleman from Dun Laoghaire than a genuine attempt to help out. The people of Gaza starve 24/7 52 weeks a year , not just when Mr O Reilly decides to stick them on the front page..
The whole idea of holding a demo is to build a public profile, but for campaigns not for individuals and surely the campaign that deserves that is the IPSC, so why does the IAWM insist on calling demonstrations on the issue? Maybe the handful of non-SWP people could point this out to them.
Because the IAWM is a seriously hamstrung organization, with zero credibility among both the Irish activist community and the public at large, associating the Palestine issue with the IAWM is not good for the IPSC or the Palestinian cause. Call it cynical if you like but realistic is perhaps nearer the mark.
I have to agree with you MickNed.
DROP THE BICKERING.
And drop the acronymic sectarian wars.At least till the boat docks.We can go back to being our usual irish idiotic selves after we know the people on the front line are clear of the IDF.Stick to the issues or you will only serve those that division suits.Work it out or b quein.
What I find most disturbing about Israel's actions against the Aid Flotilla is the degree of over-reaction.
This was a pathetically small flotilla carrying nothing that would threaten Israel in any meaningful way. Yet the response by Israel's military and political leaders was massive, military, mortal and illegal as, I understand, the action took place in international waters.
My concern is, as Israel has demonstrated again and again that it is prepared to act illegally and pre-emptively, what this nuclear power is capable of doing, for example, in relation to Iran, and the global consequences of such possible action.
Israel's actions have proven again and again that it is a terrorist state. The Aid Flotilla is just one more example. Until Israel is firmy made, not told, to stop, it will continue to abuse to laws of the international community and terrorise all who dare raise the voice of humanitarianism when that voice in any way opposes Israel's self-interest.
Global call for the Saturday, 2 days after this IAWM demo - June5, 2010 Global Day 2Break Israeli Siege of Gaza. Join the action http://bit.ly/d0kIGV
Let’s mark Saturday, 5th June 2010 as Global Day to Break Israeli Siege with protests and demonstrations in front of Israeli embassies and consulates all over the world. We call on you to join us on this day to demand in a global united voice, from our governments to:
* Take a stance against this horrid inhumanity committed by Israel against armless humanitarians and activists by following Turkey’s footsteps in shutting down Israeli’s consulates. Crimes against inhumanity are inexcusable and will not be welcome in our countries.
* Join the growing international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement in cutting all political, economic, cultural and academic ties with Israel as a statement that crimes against humanity are inexcusable, unwelcome and will not pass unchallenged.
* Impose full sanctions against Israel until they fully abide by international law and UN conventions in relation to the siege in Gaza, occupation and apartheid in Palestine as well as the right of return of refugees.
If you do not have an Israeli embassy in your country, protest in front of major corporations or institutions with economic, political, cultural or academic ties with Israel.

Survivor of #freedomflotilla speaks at Dublin rally about his experiences
The Irish Anti-War Movement held a demonstration in Dublin this evening to protest at Israel's actions.
Hundreds of protestors have formed a human barricade around the Israeli Embassy in Ballsbridge following the march.
There was a sleep out outside the Israeli Embassy last night after yesterdays demo. And with modern communication technology Denis Halliday, presently on board the MV Rachel Corrie, spoke live to the crowd through a live satellite linkup. A slightly longer more detailed report from IAWM came through facebook...
And a correct photo from the demo is enclosed. Apologies, earlier image of last nights demo is not correct (tek error), here is one of the correct ones, via WSM on TWEETPHOTO (where and what can all this ever improving communication technology lead to?) http://tweetphoto.com/25380411 for more photos and TWEETS from them, see here http://twitter.com/WSMIreland
Richard Boyd Barrett said “Here in Ireland, we must demand that our Government takes genuine action against Israel. Words of criticism or a rap over the knuckles from Micheál Martin are not enough. The Israeli ambassador should be expelled from this country and all trade and diplomatic links with Israel must be severed.”
Great to see more and more anger rising all over the country and that saturday looks like it will be a huge day of protest in Ireland, with planned protests in the coming days in Strabane, Gorey, New Ross, Belfast, Sligo, Waterford, Ennis, Limerick, Cork, Belfast and Dublin.
Keep it going Ireland, the eyes of the world are again focusing on our little island, a special boat, and an utterly brave crew...

Israel Embassy Protest, Dublin Ireland
Israel is a western nation trying to survive in an eastern sea. Since 1948 what has been the results:
Israel is a Garden of Paradise compared to the oil rich degenerates whose nations are pockets of misery. The eastern bloc are trying to revive a 16th century existence in a 21th Century world. They are blind to the freedoms and prosperity of the west in spite of the wealth of oil which they do not share with their populations.
I don't know if Israel and Palestinians can coexist or not. What I do know is that Israel has every right to exist AND defend themselves against their neighbors. If Israel abandons the blockade into Gaza they will be committing suicide. All manner of arms would flood the corrupt nation not for the defense of Gaza, but for the destruction of Israel. They will not succeed.
Here in the United States, there is a revolt in the making. With any luck we will turn this country around and steer a course for survival at the expense of our enemies not our allies of which Israel is one. There will be a lot of pain associated with this reversal of fortune but the world needs to rid itself of the deadwood. Democracy and Capitalism are those philosophies most closely associated with natural law. You had better get on the side of Freedom or you will left in the dust along with all the other Socialist nations floundering in Europe.
Good man Paul - you are a classic Zio-racist - when all else fails simply make it an 'East vs. West' narrative - as in 'they all hate us because we are so progressive and modern and THEY are horrible stuck-in-the-past anti-semites who just love to hate'
You're pathetic Paul - it's just a variation on the 'We are the eternal Victim' - throw in some silly emotive 'right to exist' bullshit - and hey presto - instant blind-to-reality, false-logic justification of the racist and fascistic nature of the Zionist regime's failed experiment
It never seems to occur to you racist Zionists that it actually might be YOUR attitude that is causing a problem
There's nothing progressive about Fascism, Paul, and the Zionism you love so much is a fascist ideology, with much in common with Nazism
Democracy and Capitalism are those philosophies most closely associated with natural law,Paul?I'm just curious as to where you studied,philosophy,nature or law.Natural law,as it pertains to the anthropoid branch of the evolutionary tree is the law of the jungle,as it is for most organisms outside of the oceans the deserts or the savannas.The bonobo has not minted coinage or printed legal tender that have gotten to Monte carlo or Las Vegas according to my informants,nor are their democratic credential up to scrutiny,though I have to admit when I look at the antics of Oireachtas Report the monkeys in the suits do trail behind for sapient behaviour.Oh,and east and west are just compass points,and Israel is not an island so it can hardly be a Garden of Paradise in an eastern sea.Quaint ideas, but try to get into the nineteenth century before the twenty-first closes.Otherwise you may find yourself eating dust.Shalom.
