Bombing Lebanon is Proof of Israel's Bloody Impunity

Israel claims this is a "justified" response to Hizbullah firing rockets into Israel. We have heard this lie before. Netanyahu also conveniently ignores the 1500 times they have broken the ceasefire in the last year

Micheál Martin shakes Benjamin Netanyahu's hand as Beirut burns in the background.

Hundreds killed in mere days.

Tens of thousands threatened with displacement.

Bombs dropped en masse on civilian areas.

This is the reality of Israel's attack on Lebanon. Continuing its barbaric actions in the region.

Israel claims this is a "justified" response to Hizbullah firing rockets into Israel. We have heard this lie before. Netanyahu also conveniently ignores the 1500 times they have broken the ceasefire in the last year.

Meanwhile the West continues to allow Israel to act with bloody impunity.Trump is all in with Israel on this regional war.

European leaders show they're pawns for US imperialism, supporting the war effort, opening up their military bases. Spain is the one good exception.

And the Irish Government is the most cowardly of all. Refusing to call out this war of aggression. Refusing to boycott the White House. Refusing to stop the use of Shannon airport by the US war machine.

It's a similar picture North of the border, where many elected reps criticise the war, but so far haven't joined People Before Profit in calling for the US Military to be denied use of Aldergrove airport.

No to war anywhere. Yes to defending Irish neutrality and challenging Israeli impunity, in Lebanon, Palestine and Iran.
