Opposition motions calling for a range of economic and diplomatic sanctions, including the expulsion of Israel’s ambassador in Dublin Dana Erlich, were defeated in the Dail on Wednesday evening.

Proposals for Ireland to refer Israel to the International Criminal Court (ICC) were also voted down.

While the Government did not expel Russia’s ambassador after the invasion of Ukraine, it did back EU sanctions against Vladimir Putin’s regime and also referred its actions to the ICC.

      collateral damage isnt legal by default. That would also be a get out of jail free card then, since all you need is the intend to hit one military target. collateral damage need to be proportional to the military target. and that it isnt here

          . There’s thousands of terrorists among the people killed by the IDF.

          Says the IDF. The same IDF that murders journalists while they wear press vests.

          . You simply can’t blame the side that is forced to fire upon these multi-use targets. Otherwise you’d be rewarding a war crime.

          With the same logic you couldnt blame Hamas for shootingtheir rokets like this, because they cant build GPS guided ones.

          Of course i can blame and every human rights organisation as well as the UN and experts on international law are doing so
