I'm surprised this hasn't already been posted but Ireland passed a non binding motion a few days ago that “genocide is being perpetrated before our eyes by Israel in Gaza”.

Hopefully they Occupied Territories Bill will be passed even though there is a General Election in the coming weeks.

FYI OP you are going to get loads of replies stating that Ireland is anti Semitic completely ignoring the fact that as a country that was previously occupied there is deep sympathy and empathy with the Palestinian cause that predates the current crisis.
