Israel Closes Embassy in Ireland Over "Extreme Anti-Israel Policies"
ai generated text
Ireland has been a vocal critic of Israel's response to the recent attacks by Hamas, and has recognized a Palestinian state, which Israel's foreign ministry has cited as a reason for closing its embassy in Ireland. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has stated that the decision was made due to Ireland's "extreme anti-Israeli policies", which have been described as rooted in the delegitimization and demonization of the Jewish state. Ireland has denied being anti-Israel, with Prime Minister Simon Harris saying the decision to close the embassy was "deeply regrettable".
We are concerned that a very narrow interpretation of what constitutes genocide leads to a culture of impunity in which the protection of civilians is minimized.
Ireland wants a two-state solution and for Israel and Palestine to live in peace and security. Ireland will always speak up for human rights and international law. Nothing will distract that.
I utterly reject the assertion that Ireland is anti-Israel. Ireland is pro-peace, pro-human rights, and pro-international law.
The actions and antisemitic rhetoric used by Ireland against Israel are rooted in the delegitimization and demonization of the Jewish state, along with double standards. Ireland has crossed every red line in its relations with Israel.
Shame on you, Yair!… This is clear anti-Semitism based on delegitimization, dehumanization and double standards towards the Jewish state.
The way to deal with criticism is not to run away, but to stay and fight!
