Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Irish politicians and campaigners have accused Israel of a deliberate attempt to "smear Ireland" and trying to silence the government's legislative agenda aimed at protecting Palestinian lives. 

On Sunday, Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Saar announced the closure of the Israeli embassy in Dublin, claiming the decision was due to Ireland’s "extreme anti-Israel policies" and "antisemitic rhetoric".

Lynn Boylan, Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for Sinn Féin, has dismissed Israel's accusations and believes the move is a tactic to dissuade Ireland from enacting the upcoming Occupied Territories Bill, which would criminalise trade with illegal settlements.

The real anti-antisemitism is the genociders who are mass murdering children because of their ethnicity claiming that their actions represent all Jews and hence criticizing them is anti-semitic.

Even in their use of "If you criticize what you do you're criticizing our race" arguments the Zionists are the closest to Nazis there is in the present day.

That's an interesting angle to look at it from, never considered that - good point.
