Majella O'Hare was 12 years old, when she was shot in the back and murdered by a British paratrooper as she walked to confession in the church next to St Malachy's primary school. The paras tried to blame the IRA, and threatened and intimidate those who went to aid Majella

Then, as in Israel now, the British had a well-oiled propaganda machine ready to roll out chaos-making introduce confusion & establish cover-up. To date, Majella’s family and community have never got justice. Yet the truth of what happened was known and documented as we’ll see

And that truth-telling has played a part in the trajectory of someone playing a key role in the case against Israel. Irish-Palestinian solidarity isn't just about the long arc of occupation and domination. It's about recognising injustice through living with injustice.
