a large number of n jose non governmental organizations and in developing the motion and really came about was last year. when you may remember, israel made a declaration that they were going to move ahead and annex large parts of the west bank and under some international pressure de, backed away from the position publicly. but we know the reality on the ground was that annexation was continuum is continued and we know that from 1967 we've seen the proration of over 250 illegal colonial settlement units or settlements within the occupied territories. consistent of over 650 toes and colonial settlers. so we know max ation news happening. we know that blan grab those palestinian lands has been happened despite the public position that was

declared unaccepted by the international community. so we brought about that the motion, which was at the beta in the irish parliament and our layer and not just and in terms of making the declaration that israel has legally acted in annexing large portion portions of palestinian land. but also acknowledging at the relief of self determination for the palestinian people who i thought i'm just looking here on my laptop at some of the images and post underneath that video that i showed of the i was tripler going up in ramallah. and we have free palestine here, lot of support the palestinians. pillow i are a holding hands together here. historical linking between 2 different peoples. and then here we have the irish flag, the palestinians live as a palestinian, who lives in island. what was it like to hear this motion passed

across all policy lines in island? this is of course, part of that long legacy of support for the senior people because the irish people have always been supported in couple of seniors because we're under the same pitch colonialism and do it as a page to q 2 from the same colonizer. and that same colonized, for example, from belford, who is code then 3 for it's called policy. and then also of the for because it is been for who gave his declaration, who promised as i this movement took by the start to them. and then the job changed himself. who said that he is as i used to the grandfather also said that the stuff they must fight and then show himself holbrook that black and tend

to island to put a secured. the irish people is the same person who sent them to the side to secure a scene or people. and then conway, who event said to the irish people, to come out to hell as the same person who was dreaming of as if nicholas living about a senior people from the side on bringing juice from all over the site. and it took me me to be a few g forever. so this, this island has, i don't christmas support even before this. i think one thing in 1981 i was going to do that and got the irish department at the i just for him. this for a braylan had at that time as supported athena's right to his definition. but i've seen it right to fill the transmission, so we have a long history of i here. but again, and i look as i would support this, not only for about a seniors but also that south africa to get their own free time. so

let us share the conversation with your co pilot. actually, i'm just looking here on youtube. we've got baby dough goddess. i have never be more proud to be irish love to palestine on youtube, dead underscore f. salute to the irish people in the government for standing up thinking, vanity, all of you should be on the right side of history, this time estimation mark. actually what he's going on here. why this moment? why this time? do you think? i think, i think it's been, you know, as i was saying, the history between island palestine has always been there is a huge emotional connection and we, palestinians are this is it's not just happening now. i think it's been cooling for a long time and it's, it's, it's great that this is the reason you know, all the violence that happened over the last few weeks that this is why it's coming . something is happening now, but the support tonight and is ongoing. it's data like with our, with our organization and many other organizations in ireland and the work that's

being done by people is, you know, tired us, we have constant speakers, we have, we have engaged with the media. it's and we have, you know, we have a lot of connections with people in palestine and we support to be g s. movements and we're constantly, you know, campaigns are ongoing all the time. so it is a constant pig. and it is really great that if this is happen where, you know, obviously it's a huge, you know, it's a huge moment because we're the 1st country in europe and for this to happen. and i hope there's will and, but i think, you know, i think now people everything is, is a lot more visible man. maybe there's a lot of media coverage, palestinian voices, i might be hurt now. and you know, kind of arising within palestinian people as well, which is it's really good to see. so i think, i think it's just people are more aware and people want to help them be some solidarity with palestine. so yeah. so when you think that it's not that he told us

about the history of the solidarity between irish people and palestinians. but what i really love from what you are doing is this is contemporary right now. so when palestinians, when the times when we can travel before cove, it, when palace in, you have to island when you're coasted. guess because what was got you like what is that? so it's, it's amazing to have people here. they come over and you know, they're always so strong and, you know, and just bringing people to, to call and we have various different types of speakers. we could have, you know, we've had children come from and refugee camps in dancing. and we brought in the palestinian dancing. okay, great, thank you. it was just catching, i just had no problem with your audio but we can right now. no worries. john,

i'm going to play this. have a listen. this is this is dublin midway. ok. the people running that in dublin in support of palestinians caught up in eastern conflict and violence and caught up on the golf strip with violence as well for claiming for this motion is incredible. yeah. the, the timing work there was well on unfortunately, in many regards we know the situation and she runs in an east jerusalem with the force the fictions, the raid on the like some mosque. all of this obviously came as a backdrop and obviously be around this brutal military assault on, on,

on the cows strip, which st. 66 children in, butchered by the israeli apartheid regime over 260 civilians. and you know, the targeted assault on civilian infrastructure in all houses, media outlets all been destroyed and the assault. and of course we had the un security council facing on the hands for $1011.00 days before they even came to a decision around a statement. you know column for restraint on a c, sorry. so the motion obviously came ahead with all of this as a backdrop. and it's certainly focused at the mayans of politicians across the political divide. but there has always been, you know, i suppose support from the irish people and i can in 2014, at the iris parliament date of resolution unanimously and to recognise the state of

palestine. no, unfortunately we're still waiting for that to be enacted. the shock, the prime minister of ireland, if you want to call him that, simply has to make a formal declaration to officially recognized the state of palestine. so that still hasn't happened. i'm conscious that with the passing of this motion, it is historic it's, it's really important. it's a declaration that israel has preached international law poly annexing parsa mc occupied territories, but has not to stop there shouldn't stop there because there has to be consequences . and that's where the conversation now needs to turn to, what is the risk don't go going to do to punish a law breaker. it is not good enough. you know, just to pass this motion because we've had so many words of, of condemnation from goldman set across the world, but no actions to follow. and that's what's allowed israel to act with perceived impunity to carry on the next age and carry on the forced,

and evictions and demolitions carry on brutal military occupation. oh palestinian lands, which obviously we seen players who actually took it in as only a couple of weeks ago. so i thought i'm going to bring in a new voice this conversation. this is mona ser bella mono sevalla is a human rights advocate. she has a really important question, have a listen to home the video, and then also it immediately. if you're able to what we need to do not just aren't and is to address the root causes and recognize the root causes of palestinians. struggle from the ethnic, cleansing of palestinians to the crime of apartheid to the next station of territory. and countries like those in the you must not adopt the standards and how the law is clickable, depending on the circumstances. sanctions were imposed in the case of russia when

the next territory in the ukraine. why is the same that happening in the case of israel? yes, indeed. i think i think that the only want to be a country should, should not use, but it's on the policy because they should address that also cause the approaching the ethnic cleansing of the scene ever since 1948. and then i think countries use, especially the island a very, very important part in that freedom of south africa. and a smile said one was the chairman of the anti parted movement in ireland. and i wasn't. and by the time he said that our victory of apartheid was, you know, more major to that, did the cation and a struggle and sacrifices of the irish people. so i think your be and can do

more than a showed if addition there must take action action to speak with out of the word there must and both factions on the line there must bring loose water criminals to the prize. there must die fixed from them. they must implement that you will, and will lucian, your what resolution 19 chord which chords for about i over and composition of all of scenery for use will have be uprooted. but the movement that if there were 3236, which chords for our admission, our right over the pin, our after told our serenity, our right to use or put me to resist our enemy. so i think europe can do europe should stop using this standard policy, right, europe and america and come in on that point because i sorry. so it's a very important point because they're sure hypocrisy here. and i chose from the

european human, put the international community as well. and i was speaking in the irish part of my last night when we had to stay edmonds on the situation and bell roofs. and all that was sanctioned and imposed on by lucia immediately after the hijacking of an irish aircraft to arrest a journalist to sanctions imposed on russia immediately after am onyx and crimea. and yes, here we have a gross violated our serial violator of international law of humanitarian law, and has been allowed to get away with it for decades. and we have a country that has been investigated by the international criminal court only last week at the united nations human rights council of called for an independent invest, which i'm not sure and in terms of the human rights violations as a job. but also when israel, we also a,

the israel embassy in ireland, which were the back there, which would join us and they refused. but we did want to go to this. let me just show this to you. i know you seen it, but this is really for the benefit of our audience. israel outright rejects honest outrages and face this position regarding israeli communities in your day in somalia. this position reflects a blatantly one sided and simplicity policy. john, your policy simplistic a certain, certainly not. it's not a policy, it's a policy. and on a sudden mentioned un security council resolutions to have been passed. so this is an international position in resolution to tree tree for which you know, the finds, the palestinian and when with no does, you know, israel is as serial violator of many resolutions. i mentioned the fact that they are being investigated. so am i surprised the israel's foreign ministry, or all of us would, you know, criticize or condemn the irish position?

absolutely not. i, in the arrogance shows no, can i just jump in there? and it is, you know, we've seen recently that their reports to human rights watch reports and reports say, you know, it's been declared by human rights organization that this is apartheid. and we need to use the language more and we need, it's shameful. it's taken this love and it's great that this motion is in place now, what action needs to happen. and not just in ireland, international support is hugely or, and palestine. and that was the type, but it's always the time to do it. but now what we have in motion, we need to keep pushing. am for, for more support for sanctions, for meaningful, meaningful support and not just where it's hell. and i'm so glad you say, i think it's and all of i guess because there is what, what happened with this motion? it's historical. you are standing out there beyond any of a european union country. let me show an audience,

a few pictures here on my laptop. and a lot of this is still good stuff. a group was i was, art is filmmakers and others, projecting a video, solidarity with the people who garza and then we go to the irish parliament members way more to palestinian symbols. all right, so which we're seeing the symbolism bought that there is no way right now the island is going to say we're going to boycott because in asia happening, john, you know, and also you haven't, you haven't acknowledged palestine as a country yet. so it feel good. what's the action? well, there needs to be actions because person, the motion was wanting without consequences and to hold israel to account. it's meaningless and that's where the conversation they need to turn because it's the iris 2 years ago, 3 years ago. so it was

a piece of legislation that was brought forward an ard and the occupied territories bill and the irish goldman block that was the trade of goods from the occupied terrace. why can't, why did i look date? they can explain that themselves. they've hidden behind you, they tell you incorrect. well, they said they hid behind faults, legal advice, and i think with a red herring, i don't think there's any trails and but now that needs to come back onto the table because until there are sanctions and imposed on is right, they will continue to act and the irish people are demanding is there was a petition 100 into at the minister of foreign affairs, simon colon. these office. yes, the 88000 people signed the petition calling for the explosion of the israeli center today. students from trinity college in ireland and occupied a me offices, demanding sanctioned immediately on the brutal apartheid israeli system. so the

irish people will not allow the irish government to see it on their hands. here they are demanding the take action and turn hopefully that will act as capitalist for not just order your to pain countries to follows. who but more importantly, let it be the start of and nancy, a power type movement that needs to happen internationally to force, you know, israel to a, to serial law and to international law and to ensure the palestinian people have the right to self determination. john, i want to get and and aside, and actually want to get one more comment into the program. and this comes from a counsel member of sion same, which is the same party as john's party in the party, the any push for this motion to happen. and he is talking about practical action ashlyn. you come with the back of this video comment. ireland is a long history of supporting the palestinians and demanding freedom for palestine. i firmly believe that comes from a place where we ourselves suffered at the hands of partition patriotism. but the

support of palestine is broadened and deep and the last few weeks and reached a point where the irish government support should fan motion the katy cars and then to fact months, the boy cost divestment and sanctions against he is really said, most importantly, it also stated that the segments are wrong, and they, they are annexation of palestinian land, which is a crime under international law. and now what we need to do is work together what other countries and assured a israel had to account for that crime. yes, so we and yeah, i completely agree in terms of what we do is a solid darcy organization and we currently have a campaign called free zones, which we are planning on having as many organizations businesses. and you know, if you're a cancer, you can side off the community group and you can declare yourself apart by free and which we hope to carry across items. and that's, you know, from our perspective what we can do, we can push, you know,

people to do that from the government perspective. they need to push sanctions. you know, i think together it will be stronger on youtube. we have, could she key key a thank you for watching the show. such a good question. i'm going to give a desk 30 seconds to alter this question. how would the irish actions impact the life of the average palestinian people? you have 30 seconds. you can do one arts and one word you can do it in one sentence . ashley. i, i think continued solidarity and pressure. and we'll, we'll keep going. we've been doing this for a long time and we won't stop until palestine is free. people have to write to return and the demands of the palestinian people are mess. we'll keep go. john. i think i'm getting palestinian people a little bit of hope. i'm conscious that this is one break. remove from a much of the parties. well, and, but it has given, published indian people hope that somebody, a country somewhere is prepared to take a stand and call it as it is

a part i'll use a legal under international law. a sad. what difference does it make? how will this affect every day palestinians in their lives? yeah, this is, this is very important because now for us see that they know that it, once island announced that this is illegal annexation, illegal execution means. what does it mean? because inefficient means ethnic cleansing, pumping out more finance and pumping on more use and combining more land and making more refugees and homeless people. and this is why, by translating this resolution into practice and then by supporting it for more action question i sanction that explaining that in better there, i'm being honest and bottle. i hope it took a lot of people, but his time is not list. i don't about our own people. thank you for loving. i did

read ashley and john really appreciate you. thank you so much. thank you for your comments. your questions. you next time take care of what the me each and every one of us have responsibility to change our personal space for them. the we or we could do this experiment, any of us could increase just a little bit that would be worth doing. anybody had any idea that it would become a magnet, always incredibly recipe for women to get 50 percent representation in the constituent assembly here and getting this pick up to collect the segregate, to say the reason this is extremely important. service that they provide the city

we need to take america to try to bring people together and trying to deal with people and left behind me. a face compelling story without uttering a single word. and knowing going can go on a simple touch informa. the young convention manatee, of life. witness through the limbs of the human. i want him by as a witness documentary on out. is there a warning drug? cartels on vigilante groups? a population call in the middle. what's your reason to thing and make sure, why do you want this territory? i'm reporting from an episode of mixed violence to investigate. can an upcoming
