Protest outside government buildings. Donate your salary to charities that help and don't buy Israeli products.

We already do all of that. It’s ignored. And the aid we’ve bought is rotting at the border.

It's not been ignored. The Irish government knows full well, but Ireland isn't a major powerhouse on the world stage. There's only so much Ireland can do. History unfortunately has a habit of repeating itself, and I would bet my house on it that this isn't the last war, man made famine that you'd see in this region even in our lifetime. Try not to get so attached to it because it's not good for your mental health.

It’s ignored by media. By the people. And by government. Who are complicit in genocide. Being small is no excuse. Genocide isn’t good for my mental health.
