History of Sorts

This post exposes the hypocrisy of several Irish left-wing political parties — including Sinn Féin, People Before Profit, the Social Democrats, and the Labour Party — as well as presidential candidate Catherine Connolly. Although Connolly claims she wants to be a president for all Irish citizens, she has nevertheless aligned herself with individuals associated with groups responsible for the killing of Irish citizens.

They demanded the Israeli ambassador to Ireland be expelled. However, this wasn’t mandated for the Palestinian ambassador, nor did they condemn the terror attack by Hamas on 7 October 2023, where Irish citizens were murdered and abducted. Nor did they condemn Hezbollah for killing an Irish soldier on peacekeeping duties.

The photograph above is of the coffin of Private Seán Rooney, an Irish soldier killed while on a peacekeeping mission in Lebanon. He was in an armoured vehicle that came under fire while travelling to Beirut on 14 December. It later emerged that the attack was carried out by Palestinian-backed Hezbollah. The shooting resulted in the death of Private Seán Rooney (age 24) of Newtowncunningham in Co Donegal and seriously wounded Private Shane Kearney (age 22).

Irish-Israeli woman Kim Damti (age 22) was confirmed dead after an attack by Hamas at a music festival in southern Israel. She was attending a music festival near the Gaza border when Hamas terrorists arrived at the site. An innocent young lady enjoying music was murdered on 7 October 2023.

An eight-year-old Irish girl, Emily Hand, on 7 October 2023, was presumed dead but was abducted by Hamas. Emily was released 50 days later, 50 days of mental torture for her and her father.

I sincerely hope the Irish people consider their choices carefully during upcoming elections. It is also important to note that People Before Profit did not condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine outright, nor did they ask for the Russian ambassador to be expelled.
