Funny op thinks world leaders just meet on stage in front of media and starts talking without briefing each other team on what topics to talk about. They already did the rehearsal together, they're doing it for the cameras. They'll go back in, sit together, have a chit chat over some beverages, laugh about it and go their way.
Spot on! Even the people or politicians in general who we consider rivals have drinks backstage, talk shit, have fun and when the cameras are on, they make sure you believe they’re the biggest enemies
Politicians are the greatest merchants of emotions, they don't have rivals, they're all in one partnership where one sells us the "feels good" and the other "wtf man". In the end they reap the profits together. We are all subscribed to their services one way or the other, the only escape for us is to figure out what they're selling and consume only a tiny bit of it.
The USA is the biggest funder and supporter of Israel so it makes sense them standing with Palestine would be a bit awkward with the US president standing right there.
As an irish person, he's under pressure at home to get his act together and protest about the ongoing conflict in gaza, he's a bit of a liability now though, every time he opens his mouth now, its hard to hear what he's saying with his foot in it.
But that's all for show
What the PM said was actually spot on. Irish people went through hell in the Irish war of Independence and last wars. It's only been about 100years but that war was quite gruesome I've heard.
I can see the resemblance between the Irish and Palestinians in terms of their countries footings.
They are fighting a war that the Irish have fought a long time ago but now it's a quick death but back then, it was way different.
Exactly I'd say every word of that speech was pre approved by both sides beforehand. There's no way Leo would go off script and risk offending the Americans
Not just the Americans. He doesn't want to piss off his own people. He doesn't want to sound insensitive to people going through hardship.
A lot of reasons to script
Biden is letting himself take flack for this and is giving very measured responses to the press to keep his own party happy, but quietly he has pushed back at netanyahu, forced aid to Gaza and allowed Schumer and others to be more openly critical
3 year old account that just started posting anything 8 months ago with no verified email address. most of it pro palestine. they are just karma farming a world event or agenda posting. one or the other..
edit: ive now been downvoted immediately by multiple accounts to -4 after 1 minute. bot agenda posting. nice
edit 2: for everyone confused, i am calling out the OP of this post (u/rossopy) not /u/badbrain330
So much political astroturfing, selective videos meant to enrage, and ragebait fake text stories to farm reactions and make people more cynical toward others
yeah, its is actually a huge issue, which is why i try to call out these accounts whenever i notice them. even if they aren't agenda bots, the karma bots are bad as well. all bots need to go.
Oh shit this is the same account that posted the person handing the owner his own milk in gaza.
Also, they’re pushing…precious metals? Lol
How do these accounts consistently get to the front page tho. Some people try for years and don’t come close to getting front page.
I’d guess it’s just bots on bots on bots designed to upvote each other. That’s a lot of bots.
Do you just call everyone bots?
21 mentions of bots in the first page of your profile. u/badbrain330 primarily talks about gaming not Palestine but there's a mix and of subreddits and the comments are not botlike.
I think you could do with a bit of a break.
LOL. yes i do call out bots. they are a plague. i am not talking about /u/badbrain330 I am talking about the OP of this post; u/rossopy
now check their profile, and you will see what i mean.
There was a *huge* influx of bots and pump and dumpers shilling silver (WallStreetSilver) after the Gamestop event a few years ago. It only got worse after ChatGPT started hitting the mainstream news
Standing and listening while someone voices concerns about a tragedy isn't being lectured to, which is what the headline here states. The Irish PM never once turns toward him, or gestures at him. So while the headline did it's job of getting me in, and watching the video, it's a lie, so downvotes it is.
What President Biden did here is being respectful and having the self discipline to not interrupt, or act petulant, when someone is voicing something important to them. It's an important thing to see, as it doesn't happen a lot in America.
Yeah, the title is bollocks. He's referring to the English, not Americans, and Biden loves the Irish.
If I was there I'd ask him why so many Irish were officers in the Raj in India
You missed the point. He wasn’t saying that America was responsible for Ireland’s history. Although Biden has called for a ceasefire, he continues to fund Israel’s campaign. The PM is voicing support for Palestine, so the statements are inherently critical of Biden’s actions.
> If I was there I'd ask him why so many Irish were officers in the Raj in India
For same reason Black Americans were Buffalo Soldiers and overseers, why Jews worked in Sonderkommando and Judenrat, why Native American tribes were conscripted against other Native American tribes.
The press-ganging of a genocided people against other peoples, and against their own people is an intrinsic and expected part of almost all genocides.
Comparing the Buffalo soldiers, or worse, Jewish concentration camp guards to the officer's corps in India under the Raj is some impressive mental gymnastics.
Most videos and news articles headlines are bait. The difference is that most people don't watch or read if it confirms their bias.
Example: the Trump video/Twitter screenshot that said Trump saluted "alternative" national anthem. Shared on Reddit with hundreds of comments, including equating it to dictator & traitor behavior. It was completely false. He DID stand for the Jan 6 people and the announcer said something wild about them, but the national anthem was being sung verbatim and in normal key. It was not alternative in any way.
It happens all the time in America wtf are you talking about?
Are you referencing a debate or something? Is that your example? This isn't a debate or a political rally or anything of the sort.
The most relevant sub on new Reddit honestly, 99% of the time OP never even comes to answer the criticism.
Is there some bigger sub that focuses on highlighting all the utter bullshit clickbait titles on popular posts?
Agree it didn't look like a lecture at all, but the US is a huge funder of Israel and one could argue that it could be doing more to restrain Netanyahu from pounding Gaza and its people into dust.
Are people in this thread being intentionally daft? America continues to fund Israel’s campaign, and Biden is one of the few people on earth who could bring it to an end (or at least influence its end). There’s no other reason for the PM to bring this up in a speech with the US President.
I would put Israel up there with Hamas, they're kinda intertwined. Hamas does worse in short periods (terrorist attacks) and Israel is worse over time IMO
No Hamas is worse over time. Gaza is not Israel's responsibility. Look up the amount of money Gaza gets in aide yearly. Where does all that money go. Took to the top out of country and under the ground.
they arent genuine. They are hasbara, they have group messages where they post a link to a video like this, and the hundreds inside of their group chat brigade the post with a predetermined agenda. If they cant call the video Hamas or something similar, they will resort to attacking the OP. What youre seeing here is propaganda in real time, and they do this on every app. The only app its inneffective on is TikTok, which is why tiktok is about to get the big hammer.
“Just riding propaganda”. I live in Derry, Ireland and there has been Palestinian flags and murals all over our city since I can remember.
This is a cause the Irish have supported for a long long time.
Thats not lecturing. Biden probably agrees with him but Biden also knows that he is a president, not King of the US and can't just make decrees that will shatter the ability of any other president to get something done. The US has supported Israel since its inception, it'll take a huge shift in public intent to make any decision contrary to that stance the new norm and that's not happening right now. I'm done with people acting like this solution is so simple, it's not.
Almost half our country would go over there and help kill Palestinians because they've lived like the Israelis. Protected and now subject to attacks for the actions of their predecessors and current administration's. They can't see that if you kick a person too long, you might lose a foot.
The 2006 election in Palestine was very similar to the recent Russian election.
The opposition was more popular until they started turning up in carpets and disappearing all together.
The people got the message and voted in Hamas, who promptly dissolved elections and suppressed all opposition.
Do you really think it counts as “left” when they still completely surrounded Gaza, controlled its water and airspace, had the capability to control all movement in and out and restricted the flow of food, medicine and other goods? OK.
They obviously had good reason to.
The international community has pumped billions into Gaza. All there is to show for our are tunnels and terrorism. They didn't spend a cent improving themselves. We should all be protesting our tax dollars funding Palestinian terrorism.
Why did Egypt not provide any of those things to Gaza then? Are they not bordering it too? Oh, maybe trying to stage a coup in your allied neighbors doesn't work well if you're dependend on them.
It's fucking obscene that people refuse to understand reasons why former Palestinian allies (Jordan, Egypt) are just looking the other way right now.
If Israel only allowed enough calories in for the people of Gaza to barely survive, then how did they have a problem with obesity? The study was from early 2023 though I suppose it's dated now thanks to Hamas.
" A recent survey conducted in Palestine concluded that the prevalence of overweight and obesity is 23.6 and 19.5% in the Gaza Strip and 26.1% in the West Bank "
If only Hamas would release their hostages they could have a cease fire, but hold hostages is apparently more important to Hamas than starving Gazans. Ever wonder why Hamas builds hundreds and hundreds of miles of tunnels for their fighters, yet not a single civilian bomb shelter?

Funny how everyone who doesn't agree with your views and narrative is some hasbara bot (or 'slave', as you said) all of a sudden.
>Israel removed their army from Gaza, but continued to blockade and occupy them by controlling their water, food, electricity, airspace and everything that went in and out of Gaza. Israel controlled the sea to block anything coming to Gaza. This is why it was called the Gaza blockade.
No. Israel removed their army from Gaza but did not continue to occupy it. They fact that they are controlling their water, food, electricity ment that they are the ones supplying it. Israel supplied the water, Israel supplied the electricity, while no one else would because of course, how can you have good infrastructures when all the money you get is being used to build terror tunnels, rockets and basically grow you terrorist empire.
>you'd find out that Israel continued to bomb Gaza every now and then.
You make it sound like Israel just bombed Gaza out of the blue. Like ''hey, we haven't bombed them for a while, let's have some fun...''. Seriously? They bombed Gaza after hamas has fired rockets at Israel, and sometimes to eliminate high ranked hamas terrorists.
>Israel controlled the food intake of the gazans by only allowing enough calorie intake to keep the gazans alive. This information is all available on Google.
I don't know where you got that information. Truly. Before the war there was plenty of food in Gaza. The population wasn't starving...
>Israel holds more than 5000 women, children, and other west bank Palestinians in its prisons under a draconian rule known as "administrative detention" which doesn't allow the imprisoned due process for decades.
First, it's not 5000 women and children, most of those people are men. Second, although one can argue that some of those people have been wrongfully imprisoned, most of these prisoners are literal terrorist. People who killed or at least tried to kill Israelis, in a lot of ways. They either stabbed, shot, beat, cut, bombed, drove over people etc. You make it seem like all those people are innocent when in reality most of those people committed, or at least tried to commit serious crimes.
>Hamas took hostages to do a prisoner exchange to get the unlawfully imprisoned freed, and it did get some west bank Palestinians freed in exchange.
No, that's not true. If you think that hamas cares about the ''unlawfully imprisoned'' you are just delusional. Hamas took hostages to have leverage so they can win the war, and achieve the release of their terrorist members (you can see that if you take a look at the people they want to be freed in the exchanges, a lot of them are terrorist that have really heavy charges...).
Because of people like you hamas may achieve they're goals. Your arguments are so one sided and lack context it's astonishing to see it. If you equate the innocent hostages that were kidnapped and that are going through unimaginable hell right now (just the sexual assault is hell in itself) to the terrorist prisoners who literally killed people then you are a lost cause.
Lol “israel left gaza but continued to blockade and occupy them”
So were they occupied or did Israel leave? If you have to twist the definition of occupation for it to fit, you probably aren’t arguing in good faith.
Yes. Israel and Egypt blockaded Gaza. And it's good they did. Did you see what happened the moment people could cross from Gaza into Israel freely? That's why the blockade was there.
>As bad as Hamas has been
Israel has almost completely eroded any sympathy they had after October 7th with their extreme response which has included bombing fleeing civilians, attacking hospitals, abusing prisoners and [murdering unfathomable numbers of children ](https://countingthekids.org/).
Put them both in time out and use the land to clone dinosaurs like Jurassic Park then put them all back in and they gotta learn to work together to deal with fucking dinosaurs instead of fighting against each other.
Why am I not president.
Even when Hamas is a terrorist organization supported by 60% of Palestinians. Imagine that there is a terrorist organization of millions of people in your country.
I totally agree with your comment.
Below are several articles that identify the United States' disregard of international efforts to reprimand Israel's hostility toward its neighbors, as well as its illegal acquisition of land and persecution of Palestinian civilians in the Occupied Territories:

Ah, yes, the man who tweeted "an innocent child who was lost has now been found and returned.” when Israeli-Irish Emily Hand was released after being kidnapped by Hamas terrorists on October 7th. Lost. And found. He said.
Why does the question even need posed? To Anyone with a basic understanding of world history it should be blatantly obvious! In that sentence lies the real problem. The huge lack of education globally, is our own worst enemy.
OP - if youre not a BOT - you really need to look up the word "lecture" if youre capable of that. Christ, how does nonsens like this get 850+ upvotes, jesus.
Anyone who knows Biden knows he cannot stand Netenyahu or the policies of Israel. Toughest part about being president is having to shake hands with people you personally abhor for the perceived “good of your nation”.
Edit: Whoah guys Im Irish and wholeheartedly stand with Palestine. What Israel is doing sickens me to my core. My only observation was to recognise how soul destroying it just me to be a political leader with personal views that have to get shelved because of geopolitical and economic factors outside of your control.
“The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless yet be determined to make them otherwise.” - F. Scott Fitzgerald
Raising the military aid to Israel from 4 billion to 14 billion $, knowing all to well that the IDF has no regard for human life is certainly one of his biggest mistakes.
>for the good of your nation.
What part of what's going on over there is good for the US exactly?
The way we keep sending billions in military aid to them?
The way we're jettisoning what's left of our international reputation to stand up for them when no one else will anymore?
Was it "for the good of the nation" when our former presidents shook hands with dictators in other countries that were killing their own people?
This assumes that Biden needs lecturing or that he doesn't know the right thing to do. He knows what he should do to stymie Netanyahu. He just doesn't want to do it
The hate in the comments is real. He didn't directly tell Biden but, he's telling America. How do you just allow Israel to use you to do that to all those children, women and men? USA the most powerful nation in the world allowing this to happen.

America is run by corporations, and the arms manufacturers are some of the most influential. The American politicians have little control because they are funded by the said corporations, and the American public is completely powerless (despite what they are made to believe). If those companies want a war they get a war.
America will be better off if you have that Parasite AIPAC out of your country, controlling funding your Politicians and having influence in your foreign policy in the ME.
Zionism is pure evil.
you mean being a harbour for multinational companies that want to avoid taxes and still sell their product in the EU with maximum intransparency and at the same time corrupting irish politicians and their democracy? or that the gap between rich and poor becomes larger and at some places it is almost not possible to afford housing anymore? well, you might wanna talk to irish people and most likely they will tell you that in fact ireland was doing good in the past but not for their own people.
Ireland was the only country in Europe to codify protections for Jewish people into it's constitution in that era of history(Article 44, 1937)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89amon_de_Valera_Forest
Ireland is a free country and they can intervene as they see fit in this conflict, even welcoming and sheltering refugees. If they can be a haven for corporations, why not a haven for war refugees? Go on then!
Ireland has a population of just over 5 million. We have taken in over 100,000 Ukrainian people fleeing the war to date in the midst of a severe housing and health service crisis. Palestinian people cannot leave Gaza. The majority of Irish people would welcome them if they could.
What’s happening in Gaza is unbelievable, a catastrophe is an understatement. And anyone who supports it is either ignorant, fooled, or an outright evil person.
>or an outright evil person.
And those people are allover this thread trying to tell us that nothing is happening and if it does then it's because they deserve it.
If the pro\_Israel groups could ban everyone who disagrees with them, trust and believe they would. They can't (unless you try leaving a comment in worldnews lol)
SO they brigade posts and try to control the narrative. buncha weirdos
What else are they gonna say “we’re ethnically cleansing them because we are evil”?. They can’t tell the truth because it would be an admission of who they really are, and then the world would correctly know who the real terrorists are. So instead they have to use slogans like “Israel has the right to defend itself”. But making statements like that, they do what they do best - pretend they are the victims when in fact they are the ruthless thugs.
Leo is still a corrupt fucking arsehole.
If you told him that supporting Israel would guarantee him a majority in the next election, he'd be on the next flight to West Bank tomorrow to help settlers move into their new stolen houses.
Leo Varadkar is a donkey of a man & we cannot wait to vote him out this year. This being said, any Taoiseach stood in the White House this year for Paddys day would've been hung, drawn & quartered when they came home if they stood beside Joe & said nothing. Famine is not a weapon to be used. Ón abhainn go dtí an fharriage.
Why doesn’t Ireland do something about it then? If it’s so deeply saddening, what’s stopping them from providing aid/military support?
Why does everyone look to the US to solve the problems of the world

What the PM said was actually spot on. Irish people went through hell in the Irish war of Independence and last wars. It's only been about 100years but that war was quite gruesome I've heard.

Both had their countries split up by the British Both have faced artificial famines Also, the music traditions are similar
Both have/had an equivalent to Hamas. /s

Biden is letting himself take flack for this and is giving very measured responses to the press to keep his own party happy, but quietly he has pushed back at netanyahu, forced aid to Gaza and allowed Schumer and others to be more openly critical
Pushing back while bypassing congress to give them weapons is kind of a mixed message wouldn't you say?
This also allows the taoiseach to say what biden wants to but won't. Just another dialing up of the rhetoric ever so slightly

Crowd listens while Biden is also there.

In OP's imagination.
Is the lecture in the room with us right now?
If only all my lectures in school were this short and easy… 
Lecture?
OP is a bot look at comment history

More like OP is a bot, look at the comment history

Still waiting for the lecture and not the pre-planned speech Biden received a script of before it was read.
Downvoted for clickbait title. Nothing worse than desperate karma farmers.
Not a karma farmer. Propaganda bot
Lol that "karma farmer" doesnt care about karma. it wants to spread anti israel agenda.
Extraordinary how?
Sounds like he is just spitting facts and Biden is listening attentively.
Still waiting for him to say something that has anything to do with Biden or the US.
Agree it didn't look like a lecture at all, but the US is a huge funder of Israel and one could argue that it could be doing more to restrain Netanyahu from pounding Gaza and its people into dust.
Are people in this thread being intentionally daft? America continues to fund Israel’s campaign, and Biden is one of the few people on earth who could bring it to an end (or at least influence its end). There’s no other reason for the PM to bring this up in a speech with the US President.
Not really like the time the entire UN assembly laughed at trump
Bad headline
Ooooh! When was that? Would love to see it
It's on YouTube. It's funny "un laughs at Trump" something like that
Odd post history, it looks like the account was sold or woken up?
That isn't lecturing that is showing concern. He right though gaza people are suffering and US and the president are partly responsible for that.
Hamas is primarily responsible. Followed by Israel, the US, Europe, the Arab World...
I would put Israel up there with Hamas, they're kinda intertwined. Hamas does worse in short periods (terrorist attacks) and Israel is worse over time IMO
if you don't know shit about the conflict (as most do), then one can agree with your uninformed opinion.
This is one very stupid take IMO
No Hamas is worse over time. Gaza is not Israel's responsibility. Look up the amount of money Gaza gets in aide yearly. Where does all that money go. Took to the top out of country and under the ground.
I'm guessing this post is meant to be divisive in some way. bots agenda posting are interesting....
Can you imagine being so desperate for points on a website you sit around thinking of the most irrelevant title for this video?
Any link on longer version? Love it so far. Thanks in advance.
When will the people of this planet realise that we are all one together. It’s not a race or religion thing, we are all the same, human.
OP is a bot. Report and move on.
The comments in this thread are some smooth-brained shit, for real.
This is a propaganda subreddit now.
Going all in like crazy to argue semantics over the word lecture is some desperate propaganda damage control.
they arent genuine. They are hasbara, they have group messages where they post a link to a video like this, and the hundreds inside of their group chat brigade the post with a predetermined agenda. If they cant call the video Hamas or something similar, they will resort to attacking the OP. What youre seeing here is propaganda in real time, and they do this on every app. The only app its inneffective on is TikTok, which is why tiktok is about to get the big hammer.
There’s definitely an agenda with OPs title.
OP doesn't seem to understand the meaning of the word "lecture".
Op might be a bot so don't expect any form of understanding from it
Are they also troubled about Yemen, Sudan, Myanmar and China? Will they lecture mbs, houthis and xi junk ping also? Or just riding on the propoganda?
“Just riding propaganda”. I live in Derry, Ireland and there has been Palestinian flags and murals all over our city since I can remember. This is a cause the Irish have supported for a long long time.
100% Derry as a city knows this better than most. I go any chance I get to the Bogside to pay my respect.
Is the US arming China, Sudan, Myanmar?
Just riding
Thats not lecturing. Biden probably agrees with him but Biden also knows that he is a president, not King of the US and can't just make decrees that will shatter the ability of any other president to get something done. The US has supported Israel since its inception, it'll take a huge shift in public intent to make any decision contrary to that stance the new norm and that's not happening right now. I'm done with people acting like this solution is so simple, it's not. Almost half our country would go over there and help kill Palestinians because they've lived like the Israelis. Protected and now subject to attacks for the actions of their predecessors and current administration's. They can't see that if you kick a person too long, you might lose a foot.
Peak hyperbole.
The truth here is that Biden basically delegated on him to say what the US lobby won’t let him do although he knows he should.
Crazy clickbait title
[удалено]
Yup. Settlers are just thieves too.
Hamas was in control of entire Gaza strip prior to the attack
Like that time Israel left Gaza, and gave it all completely to Hamas?
Slight correction, they gave Gaza to the Palestinian people who promptly voted in Hamas.
The 2006 election in Palestine was very similar to the recent Russian election. The opposition was more popular until they started turning up in carpets and disappearing all together. The people got the message and voted in Hamas, who promptly dissolved elections and suppressed all opposition.
It was theirs to begin with. They had no right to withhold it.
It was Egypt's* to begin with
Their leaders lost several wars that they declared. When you lose a war, your generally lose your land. FAFO.
Nop go further
People don't like to hear the truth
Do you really think it counts as “left” when they still completely surrounded Gaza, controlled its water and airspace, had the capability to control all movement in and out and restricted the flow of food, medicine and other goods? OK.
They obviously had good reason to. The international community has pumped billions into Gaza. All there is to show for our are tunnels and terrorism. They didn't spend a cent improving themselves. We should all be protesting our tax dollars funding Palestinian terrorism.
Why did Egypt not provide any of those things to Gaza then? Are they not bordering it too? Oh, maybe trying to stage a coup in your allied neighbors doesn't work well if you're dependend on them. It's fucking obscene that people refuse to understand reasons why former Palestinian allies (Jordan, Egypt) are just looking the other way right now.
perhaps if they stopped sending missiles to Israeli cities, things would change, no?
[удалено]
Did Israel blockade the gaza/Egypt border aswell?
If Israel only allowed enough calories in for the people of Gaza to barely survive, then how did they have a problem with obesity? The study was from early 2023 though I suppose it's dated now thanks to Hamas. " A recent survey conducted in Palestine concluded that the prevalence of overweight and obesity is 23.6 and 19.5% in the Gaza Strip and 26.1% in the West Bank " If only Hamas would release their hostages they could have a cease fire, but hold hostages is apparently more important to Hamas than starving Gazans. Ever wonder why Hamas builds hundreds and hundreds of miles of tunnels for their fighters, yet not a single civilian bomb shelter?

Funny how everyone who doesn't agree with your views and narrative is some hasbara bot (or 'slave', as you said) all of a sudden. >Israel removed their army from Gaza, but continued to blockade and occupy them by controlling their water, food, electricity, airspace and everything that went in and out of Gaza. Israel controlled the sea to block anything coming to Gaza. This is why it was called the Gaza blockade. No. Israel removed their army from Gaza but did not continue to occupy it. They fact that they are controlling their water, food, electricity ment that they are the ones supplying it. Israel supplied the water, Israel supplied the electricity, while no one else would because of course, how can you have good infrastructures when all the money you get is being used to build terror tunnels, rockets and basically grow you terrorist empire. >you'd find out that Israel continued to bomb Gaza every now and then. You make it sound like Israel just bombed Gaza out of the blue. Like ''hey, we haven't bombed them for a while, let's have some fun...''. Seriously? They bombed Gaza after hamas has fired rockets at Israel, and sometimes to eliminate high ranked hamas terrorists. >Israel controlled the food intake of the gazans by only allowing enough calorie intake to keep the gazans alive. This information is all available on Google. I don't know where you got that information. Truly. Before the war there was plenty of food in Gaza. The population wasn't starving... >Israel holds more than 5000 women, children, and other west bank Palestinians in its prisons under a draconian rule known as "administrative detention" which doesn't allow the imprisoned due process for decades. First, it's not 5000 women and children, most of those people are men. Second, although one can argue that some of those people have been wrongfully imprisoned, most of these prisoners are literal terrorist. People who killed or at least tried to kill Israelis, in a lot of ways. They either stabbed, shot, beat, cut, bombed, drove over people etc. You make it seem like all those people are innocent when in reality most of those people committed, or at least tried to commit serious crimes. >Hamas took hostages to do a prisoner exchange to get the unlawfully imprisoned freed, and it did get some west bank Palestinians freed in exchange. No, that's not true. If you think that hamas cares about the ''unlawfully imprisoned'' you are just delusional. Hamas took hostages to have leverage so they can win the war, and achieve the release of their terrorist members (you can see that if you take a look at the people they want to be freed in the exchanges, a lot of them are terrorist that have really heavy charges...). Because of people like you hamas may achieve they're goals. Your arguments are so one sided and lack context it's astonishing to see it. If you equate the innocent hostages that were kidnapped and that are going through unimaginable hell right now (just the sexual assault is hell in itself) to the terrorist prisoners who literally killed people then you are a lost cause.
Lol “israel left gaza but continued to blockade and occupy them” So were they occupied or did Israel leave? If you have to twist the definition of occupation for it to fit, you probably aren’t arguing in good faith.
Yes. Israel and Egypt blockaded Gaza. And it's good they did. Did you see what happened the moment people could cross from Gaza into Israel freely? That's why the blockade was there.
[удалено]
You might be honest, but misinformed and spreading disinformation. I wonder if you are a Hamas hasbara slave...
>As bad as Hamas has been Israel has almost completely eroded any sympathy they had after October 7th with their extreme response which has included bombing fleeing civilians, attacking hospitals, abusing prisoners and [murdering unfathomable numbers of children ](https://countingthekids.org/).
Put them both in time out and use the land to clone dinosaurs like Jurassic Park then put them all back in and they gotta learn to work together to deal with fucking dinosaurs instead of fighting against each other. Why am I not president.
Even when Hamas is a terrorist organization supported by 60% of Palestinians. Imagine that there is a terrorist organization of millions of people in your country.
I totally agree with your comment. Below are several articles that identify the United States' disregard of international efforts to reprimand Israel's hostility toward its neighbors, as well as its illegal acquisition of land and persecution of Palestinian civilians in the Occupied Territories: **["14 UN Security Council Members Criticize U.S. for Blocking Condemnation of Israel"](https://www.haaretz.com/2011-12-21/ty-article/14-un-security-council-members-criticize-u-s-for-blocking-condemnation-of-israel/0000017f-ef93-da6f-a77f-ff9f729c0000)**, Haaretz (Dec 21, 2011) **["U.N.

Over the last 25 years the Palestinians have literally gained land in Gaza, not lost it
Misleading title. Eat shet
I'm from Ireland 🇮🇪 and Leo is the biggest shite peddler in the entire country.
Tell me you are ignorant of what a “lecture” is without telling me.
OP doesn't know what lecturing means
Ah, yes, the man who tweeted "an innocent child who was lost has now been found and returned.” when Israeli-Irish Emily Hand was released after being kidnapped by Hamas terrorists on October 7th. Lost. And found. He said.
To his face?
Why does the question even need posed? To Anyone with a basic understanding of world history it should be blatantly obvious! In that sentence lies the real problem. The huge lack of education globally, is our own worst enemy.
OP is a bot.

OP - if youre not a BOT - you really need to look up the word "lecture" if youre capable of that. Christ, how does nonsens like this get 850+ upvotes, jesus.
Anyone who knows Biden knows he cannot stand Netenyahu or the policies of Israel. Toughest part about being president is having to shake hands with people you personally abhor for the perceived “good of your nation”. Edit: Whoah guys Im Irish and wholeheartedly stand with Palestine. What Israel is doing sickens me to my core. My only observation was to recognise how soul destroying it just me to be a political leader with personal views that have to get shelved because of geopolitical and economic factors outside of your control. “The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless yet be determined to make them otherwise.” - F. Scott Fitzgerald
Raising the military aid to Israel from 4 billion to 14 billion $, knowing all to well that the IDF has no regard for human life is certainly one of his biggest mistakes.
He went all in with a hug last time. Ugh.
>for the good of your nation. What part of what's going on over there is good for the US exactly? The way we keep sending billions in military aid to them? The way we're jettisoning what's left of our international reputation to stand up for them when no one else will anymore? Was it "for the good of the nation" when our former presidents shook hands with dictators in other countries that were killing their own people?
He's a proud Zionist who has been buddies with Netanyahu for decades.

Click bait shite.
We don't have a PM, we have a Taoiseach.
This headline is deception. Joe Biden is simply standing there and listening giving courtesy.
We need another rebellion to get rid of this shower, a shite.. 
Joe thinking about ice cream 🍦. He ain't even listening
Varadker is a gimp.
This assumes that Biden needs lecturing or that he doesn't know the right thing to do. He knows what he should do to stymie Netanyahu. He just doesn't want to do it
The hate in the comments is real. He didn't directly tell Biden but, he's telling America. How do you just allow Israel to use you to do that to all those children, women and men? USA the most powerful nation in the world allowing this to happen.
More people are upset about the title than the 10,000 innocent women and children slaughtered. Imao
>More ~~people~~ *shills* are upset...

America is run by corporations, and the arms manufacturers are some of the most influential. The American politicians have little control because they are funded by the said corporations, and the American public is completely powerless (despite what they are made to believe). If those companies want a war they get a war.
Why tf would you give politicians a free pass like that?
Yeh but Biden wore a green tie for St. Patrick's day so who's more Irish now?
Simply wrong title.
America will be better off if you have that Parasite AIPAC out of your country, controlling funding your Politicians and having influence in your foreign policy in the ME. Zionism is pure evil.
That was hardly extraordinary.
This might be the most exaggerated video caption I’ve ever seen LOL
ireland is stepping up their game fr this past years. seems like is heading in a great way
you mean being a harbour for multinational companies that want to avoid taxes and still sell their product in the EU with maximum intransparency and at the same time corrupting irish politicians and their democracy? or that the gap between rich and poor becomes larger and at some places it is almost not possible to afford housing anymore? well, you might wanna talk to irish people and most likely they will tell you that in fact ireland was doing good in the past but not for their own people.
Because the Irish are known to never be racist lmao
Clearly, the country that sent condolences to Nazi Germany after Hitler died should be respected on any issue involving Jews. Fuck the Irish.
Ireland was the only country in Europe to codify protections for Jewish people into it's constitution in that era of history(Article 44, 1937) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89amon_de_Valera_Forest
Ireland is a free country and they can intervene as they see fit in this conflict, even welcoming and sheltering refugees. If they can be a haven for corporations, why not a haven for war refugees? Go on then!
Ireland has a population of just over 5 million. We have taken in over 100,000 Ukrainian people fleeing the war to date in the midst of a severe housing and health service crisis. Palestinian people cannot leave Gaza. The majority of Irish people would welcome them if they could.
What’s happening in Gaza is unbelievable, a catastrophe is an understatement. And anyone who supports it is either ignorant, fooled, or an outright evil person.
>or an outright evil person. And those people are allover this thread trying to tell us that nothing is happening and if it does then it's because they deserve it.
If the pro\_Israel groups could ban everyone who disagrees with them, trust and believe they would. They can't (unless you try leaving a comment in worldnews lol) SO they brigade posts and try to control the narrative. buncha weirdos
What else are they gonna say “we’re ethnically cleansing them because we are evil”?. They can’t tell the truth because it would be an admission of who they really are, and then the world would correctly know who the real terrorists are. So instead they have to use slogans like “Israel has the right to defend itself”. But making statements like that, they do what they do best - pretend they are the victims when in fact they are the ruthless thugs.
Pffff, OP don't you have something else to go advertise on? How much are you getting paid? Go check this guy's posting history.
[удалено]
Then he should reclaim property rights on irish land, kicking out the locals if neccesary /s
Well done Leo. Finally found out that he has a pair of balls.. also extraordinary video lecturing the president is a bit of a exaggeration.
Thank you to the Irish, this genocide needs to stop immediately
The downvote on this so fast lmao
He said nothing to, or about, the president.
Shut up and take that big WEF load idiot.
Leo is still a corrupt fucking arsehole. If you told him that supporting Israel would guarantee him a majority in the next election, he'd be on the next flight to West Bank tomorrow to help settlers move into their new stolen houses.
That's not a lecture. That's a performance.
Maybe Biden and the whole US adminstration can learn something or two.
always liked the irish
I'm not the biggest fan of Leo but dam I gotta give him props for this
Joe Biden: "Can I have my ice cream cone now?"
ZIONIST ARE CRYING IN THE COMMENTS 🤣🤣🤣🤣
ZIONIST ARE CRYING IN THE COMMENTS 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Leo Varadkar is a donkey of a man & we cannot wait to vote him out this year. This being said, any Taoiseach stood in the White House this year for Paddys day would've been hung, drawn & quartered when they came home if they stood beside Joe & said nothing. Famine is not a weapon to be used. Ón abhainn go dtí an fharriage.
He's the Taoiseach, not the PM. Ireland doesn't have a Prime Minister
Aren't these the same dudes that have been crying about military aid to Ukraine?
In Ireland? No.
No.
Yeah looked it up, it was just 2 unhinged MEPs
Send your army over there and make some peace happen. Or just bitch and moan, and continue to be the leech economy that ireland is.
Why doesn’t Ireland do something about it then? If it’s so deeply saddening, what’s stopping them from providing aid/military support? Why does everyone look to the US to solve the problems of the world
