Ireland approves motion accusing Israel of de facto annexation
June 4, 2021
(JNS) The Irish government has endorsed a parliamentary motion condemning the “de facto annexation” of the West Bank by the Israeli government, becoming the first European Union country to do so.
Irish Foreign Minister Simon Coveney supported the motion and condemned what he said was “manifestly unequal” treatment of Palestinians.
“The scale, pace and strategic nature of Israel’s actions on settlement expansion and the intent behind it have brought us to a point where we need to be honest about what is actually happening on the ground. … It is de facto annexation,” Coveney said.

Israel, vaccines and Palestinians
Sir, – Jackie Goodall (Letters, February 13th) suggests that the Israeli state’s record-breaking vaccination rollout is being “subsequently used to further a political agenda”.
On the contrary; I welcome any news of success in the global struggle against Covid-19, but a sense of fairness compels me, and many others, to protest the media’s frequent sanitisation of the Israeli state’s discriminatory policies towards the Palestinians, which well-regarded Israeli human rights organisation B’Tselem has recently characterised as apartheid.
Ms Goodall accuses Patrick Costello TD of quoting “selectively” from Article 56 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, but by relying on a quotation from an unnamed Palestinian Authority official last December, Ms Goodall is doing some selective quoting of her own.
