My heart is aching as I'm talking to you today because only yesterday a cousin of mine and his family got wiped off the face of this earth in Can you miss? Five of them got killed a mother a husband that's the dad and three children in a space of one second without any warning. My name is Alma. This is my husband, Paddy and my son James. I'm right today to support the Palestinian people. Supporting the Palestinian people is some people withdrawn. Here to support Gaza, the killing, it has to be stopped. And I am here for humanity. Against Israel, what they're doing in Gaza at the moment. I am here today to protest on behalf of my union against the atrocity that is occurring at the moment in Gaza. We're appalled at the continued action of the Israeli defense forces. Right into the conflict in the discourse of the oppressor is akin to asking a real victim. Do you think you would have had an easier time if you didn't fight back? Do you think maybe if you didn't punch your rapists it would have been easier? This is what saying do you not think Hamas should stop firing rockets? Paddy stop! From the level to the sea! Paddy stop! We can free! Israel has been killing Palestinians with a punty, no matter how many Palestinians they kill. Yes, we put a motion in St. Louis, the city council. Just of course, for an end to the siege of Gaza, we called on the Irish government to use its influence to impose trade tensions on Israel, to impose an arms embargo on Israel, and to have Israel excluded from the EU trade, preferential trade agreements. We're here to pressurize the EU government to have an effect on what's going on in the world and to pressurize the Israeli government to stop. We're here to pressurize the EU government to have an effect on what's going on in the world and to pressurize the EU government to stop. I think that people in Ireland generally are absolutely horrified about the crime that's been perpetrated against the beleaguered people of Palestine who are effectively prisoners inside the reservation that is Gaza. I think it's very clear that what's happening in Gaza is an incremental genocide. This is not an attack on Hamas, this is an attack on the entire Palestinian population. I'm here with the trade union, France of Palestine, to plead for justice and safety for the people of Gaza. I think all the arts should stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people because the political situation in Palestine represents all of the people in the world who are oppressed by a system which feels it has the right to go against international law. Thank you!
