For all of you who think Israel is not doing anything wrong, try this…
The English settle in the 6 Irish counties.
Every few months they extend the border.
Now Ireland’s 4 million live in Waterford.
But the English won’t stop.
Sound familiar? Yeah what’s the problem?
The Embassy of Israel said the boycott will not facilitate Ireland’s role or influence in the Middle East.

THIS WEEK, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar announced that the proposed directly-elected mayors for Cork, Limerick and Waterford will be paid €130,000.
The public will be asked to vote on whether they approve of the idea of directly-elected mayors in a plebiscite, due to happen on the same day as the local and European elections on 24 May.
Tánaiste Simon Coveney has defended the €130,000 salary, insisting that amount of money is required to attract the right candidates.
“The salary is at that rate because it needs to be. This will be a serious, full-time job that will require a lot of energy, a lot of drive, 14-hour days,” Coveney told The Irish Examiner yesterday.
We want to know what you think? Is it the right amount, or is it just too much money?
Poll: Is the €130,000 salary proposed for directly elected mayors in Cork, Limerick and Waterford fair?

@Me Ould Flour: Try this, if our history with England has been different and they had not invaded, would we even give a shit about Palestine?
