A national day of protest in Ireland is being considered in response to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Tánaiste Mr. Harris plans to discuss this initiative following a letter from Michael Cush. The letter emphasized the need for solidarity without condemning Israel's self-defense rights. Recent reports indicate over 110 starvation-related deaths in Gaza, affecting vulnerable populations, especially children. The situation has worsened with more than 55,000 reported deaths in Gaza since October 7, 2023, exacerbated by the conflict with Hamas.
The people of Ireland stand with the people of Palestine. We stand for human rights, for international law, for a two state solution, for aid to flow, for hostages to be released. We stand for peace. We stand for an end to genocide.
The suggestion for a national day or moment of solidarity made by Michael Cush in the letter above is sensible and a good idea. It could be powerful if many countries did it together.
