Clancy, who was kidnapped by apartheid Israel in international waters trying to get aid into Gaza. Our governments' complicity in the genocide of Palestinians compels us to act in all the different ways we can. #FreePalestine

Great article by Colin Sheridan in yesterday's Irish Examiner. There must be an end to all of apartheid Israel's crimes against Palestinians, including the Occupied West Bank and in Gaza. There must be self determination, freedom, justice and equality for all Palestinians. #FreePalestine

We tentatively welcome news that a ceasefire agreement has been provisionally reached in Gaza; for two years we have been to the fore in a mass movement demanding the immediate end of Israel’s genocidal assault and campaign of mass starvation, and pushing for action from our government

A full house in Dublin tonight for a powerful launch of the brilliant poet, academic and activist Prof. Refaat Alareer’s ‘If I Must Die: Poetry & Prose’. Refaat was murdered by apartheid Israel in Gaza and his great friend and editor Yousef M Aljamal spoke beautifully about his own family's history
