Ireland rapidly entering the era of the Third Reich. Irish left & right wing political activists who pose as human rights advocates in this 21st century publicly calling in Dublin for Jews to be slaughtered. Where is the push back? Where is the political & media condemnation?

Despicable group of so called Irish political activists outside the Israeli embassy last night kicked away flowers & candles left to commemorate the dead.They sang“Blood & Spirit Free Palestine”. Same group will be outside Dáil later today. It is Jewish blood they are baying for.

“Too many in Ireland & in the West have been manipulated & succumbed to fanatical islamic extremism”-The Jerusalem Post

Israel should defend itself and not succumb to manipulation - opinion

Despite the pressure of anti-Israel marches and escalating anti-Israel public sentiment, Israel must not succumb to manipulation, as it has the right to defend itself from Hamas terrorists

Inheritance tax wrongly targets & steals from a deceased assets lawfully accumulated out of taxed income during their lifetime. It is a resentment tax. It inhibits providing future security for children & grandchildren & forces the sale of family homes young families cld live in

To look at inheritance tax as something to be avoided, to be gotten around, is fundamentally wrong. Inheritance tax helps to fund essential public services so that no one goes without. This is about redistribution of wealth in our society. It's about fairness and equity.

Mary Lou democratically and mathematically challenged. 24.5% of vote confers no democratic mandate to govern. That requires at least 50.01% and 80 elected TDs. Mary Lou's perception of SF self proclaimed mandate is that over 75% of first preference votes cast shld be ignored.
