On Saturday the 5th June 2010 the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign called a demonstration on the day that the Rachel Corrie aid ship was due to arrive in the Gaza Strip. It was hijacked by Israeli Armed Forces just days after a similar hijacking resulted in 9 activists being brutally murdered in international waters. Speakers at the demonstration included IPSC chairperson Dr David Landy and activists Fintan Lane and Fiachra O' Luain from the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign who were on the flotilla that was hijacked earlier on in the week and had been deported back to Ireland. Also speaking was Sinn Fein's Aengus O'Snodaigh, president of the Labour Party Michael D.Higgins, Patricia McKeown from the Irish Congress of Trade Unions.

@green1773 protecting itself ? israel released tons of explosives on gaza and hamas reacted by firing some small rockets on some of the israeli cities that 0.1% were killed compared to gaza's victims. Hamas is a group of brave mean who defend their land and they yet have to face douchebags like you trying to tell people that they are a terrorist group. since when people who defend themselves from the enemy are called terrorists ? and israel killed over 1500 citizens in gaza in 1week

if people are against israel protecting itself, then they have to be against hamas killing civilians too, these people are not lookin for a resolution, they are picking sides. hamas is a dangerous group of people, the point is, if israel stop do you honestly think hamas will. iran ,syria,palestine want israel off the face of the earth.

It amazes me how a people who are under so much oppression and who had suffered at the hands of tyranny themselves still manages to offer out their love and support to another. God bless the Irish. T'iochAr'La

@mangaire1 Please don't compare our struggle against British oppression to the Israel/Palestine situation. They're nothing alike.

@JoudyLazkany isnt it great to see these people complain about israel and what they do, but yet if you support palestine you are no better. these people danced up and down the streets when the twin towers were hit in new york. and you support them. double standards as per usual by all retarded clueless protesters
