Irish President Michael Higgins stated that the Israeli occupation has violated many provisions of international law and breached the sovereignty of three countries: #Lebanon, #Syria, emphasizing that Benjamin #Netanyahu seeks to establish settlements in #Egypt.

Higgins condemned Israel’s labeling of #Dublin as “antisemitic” after it announced its support for the #Palestinian people, stressing that it is dangerous to label a state as such merely for disagreeing with the #Israeli Prime Minister.

The comment came after Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar branded Higgins an antisemite amid the ministry’s decision to close the Israeli embassy in Dublin.

"This person is no longer at the firm. We do not tolerate hate in any form and take incidents such as this very seriously."

#Romania / #Israel’s #Chikli has yet to meet a neo-Nazi he doesn't like.

Calin #Georgescu, a previously obscure far-right candidate dubbed the "TikTok Messiah," has emerged as the surprise leader in Romania's first round of presidential elections, sparking controversy and concern. Georgescu, who gained prominence through an aggressive social media campaign, has a documented history of praising World War II-era Romanian fascist leaders Corneliu Zelea Codreanu and Marshal Ion Antonescu, who were responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Romanian #Jews during the #Holocaust.

Turns out Israel's Diaspora Minister Amichai Chikli recently held phone conversations with Georgescu. The reported communication between Chikli and Georgescu raises serious questions about Israeli diplomatic engagement with far-right European politicians who trivialize or praise perpetrators of the @Holocaust.

The point of convergence between #Israel's current far-right government figures like Chikli and European far-right parties is their shared anti-Muslim rhetoric and policies. This practical alliance, despite the historical #antisemitism of these @European groups, appears to be based on this single shared prejudice.

The problem with the #Israel government shouting #Antisemitism at everything they don't like, is that when the real thing comes along, it can go unnoticed. Sadly, many #Palestine supporters and other #left folk dismiss any charge of antisemitism rather than engaging with the problem.

Accusing #Netanyahu of committing #war crimes is not antisemitic. However, the events targeting the Jewish community in #UEA over the past year were clearly antisemitic, and culminated this week in the abduction and murder of a young rabbi.

Hanno Hauenstein on X summarised about a coming German parliamentary resolution titled «Never again is now: Protecting, preserving and strengthening Jewish life in Germany»

“Germany is pushing a parliamentary resolution linking residency guarantees, asylum and public funding for arts and science to a loyalty oath to a state currently facing genocide charges at the International Court of Justice. This deserves international attention.”

When Germany targets Jewish artists as antisemitic (DW, 2024-09-12)

“Ever since the German parliament passed its 2019 resolution condemning the BDS movement as antisemitic, different cultural institutions in the country have been uninviting planned guests or cancelling awards, preemptively attempting to avoid controversy and accusations of antisemitism.

“The phenomenon became even more pronounced after the start of the Israel-Hamas war…”

“At the end of August, an open letter signed by prominent Jewish artists and intellectuals was published …, it has collected more than 150 signatories. In it, they express their deep concerns about the draft resolution, which ’claims to protect Jewish life in Germany. It promises instead to endanger it.’
