The Next Uachtarán na hÉireann

As per previous post. did Connolly make any comment at all when the Iranian regime were murdering thousands of their own citizens during the December/January protests? If not, then it would appear that she's being selective with her outrage, just banging the anti USA/nato drum, as she did with Ukraine war when she essentailly asked that Ukraine just lay down their arms and cave into Putin's demands.

International law covers regimes killing their own people Jimmy and it's this she spoke of in her statement.

why didnt she make the statement weeks ago?

What she said risks antagonising them. Her silence wouldn’t have been a betrayal of her beliefs.

If her beliefs were that good people should stand idly by while evil is being done then you'd have a point. I don't think they are her beliefs though.

She should be consistent and call out Russian war crimes in that case. But she opposes military aid to Ukraine because of her anti-American views.

Why just Russian war-crimes?

Why not call out ALL war-crimes? Be they Russian, Ukrainian, American, Israeli, Iranian etc etc. You know, the kind of way that International Law is SUPPOSED to be about but only seems to be selectively applied by our Politicians - the same Politicians and their shills and sycophants that get irate when someone calls out ALL war-crimes

She doesn’t call out all war crimes. She only spoke up when the Yanks are at it.

Priorities very clear for Ka.
