There?s no food getting in so people are starving,? surgeon Tom Potokar says

For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

IPSC Briefing Document: The findings of the UN Human Rights Council Inquiry into Israel’s Flotilla attack: An illegal blockade, an illegal attack, unlawful executions and use of “extreme” and “unnecessary” violence against passengers: Irish Government must take meaningful action to end Israeli impunity

The UNHRC Report is essential, powerful, riveting reading that angers me beyond words, but, thankfully, not beyond activism. It eviscerates all the lies, obfuscation, hasbara and black propaganda oozed by Israel and its fellow travellers in the western media, most egregiously by the unspeakable Jane Corbin in the BBC's Panorama "Investigation": Death in the Med.

Curiously, from normally progressive websites such as Electronic Intifada, Mondoweiss, Counterpunch, ZNet and the Palestine Chronicle there is a dearth of coverage - Democracy Now gives it fleeting mention - on the UN HRC Report.
Chris McGreal in the Guardian does a copy and paste job of claim and counter claim with no attempt at analysis or telling comment: A United Nations panel of human rights experts has accused Israel of war crimes through willful killing, unnecessary brutality and torture in its "clearly unlawful" assault on a ship attempting to break the blockade of Gaza in May in which nine Turkish activists died. McGreal "balances" this with: Israel swiftly dismissed the accusations as "politicised and extremist" ... Last month, Israel's military commander, Lieutenant General Gabi Ashkenazi, defended his forces' use of live ammunition during the assault on the ship, saying that commandos had not expected to meet such violence from the activists and were forced to defend themselves when they came under attack.
Jesus wept!
The Israeli "liberal" newspaper is reporting that Israeli PM, Netanyahu, is of the view that the United Nations report on the Gaza flotilla raid is "biased and distorted" and the group responsible is "obsessed with targeting Israel." ... "The entire world saw videos of soldiers coming onto the deck of the Marmara ship into a pre-planned, violent ambush of terror-supporters who tried to kill with clubs and knives," Further, the Israeli Foreign Ministry opined that the Human Rights Council had a "biased, politicized and extremist approach". Barak Ravid finishes his report with a flourish: The Human Rights Council, based in Geneva, was re-established in 2006 by then UN Security General, Kofi Annan, following accusations that its predecessor, the UN Commission on Human Rights,openly and systematically discriminated against Israel. But the new body has also passed several resolutions condemning Israel over the past few years, especially for its actions in the Palestinian territories, and is often of accused of unfair bias against Israel.
Now that it's clear the UN HRC is obsessively targetting and systematically discriminating against Israel, it's to be expected that, shortly, Obama will be commanding cypher-man, Ban Ki-moon, to "re-establish" that body further to Israel's taste and desire.?
