Israeli team extends 'gratitude to FIBA Europe' for its support
I feel like nothing helps a country identify with Palestine more than being stuck next to England for all of history
There's a lot of parallels between the two situations
Whilst also having one of the highest GDP per capita rate in the EU and giving zero aid to Ukraine.
There are 100, 000 Ukrainians living in sheltered accommodation in ireland and receiving special welfare payments..
We have aid and we took in a huge amount of them and fast tracked them through our asylum seeking process and provided a very decent living. So decent that the Ukrainian woman who heads up the displaced people's in Ireland group said it was too high.
Sorry about our GDP, America would never ever do things to better themselves economically and only consider themselves important...like "America First"
Ireland's a great country. The tax haven status that makes that GDP possible isn't something to be proud of, but I can think of worse countries North America's tax dollars can be going to.
My quality of living is quite high, I'm also not here debating gdp, don't know how this came from this topic.
Aren’t youse lining up around the block just to view places to rent or has that been resolved?
I bought a house with government supports and programs for first time buyer.

Nice to see people peacefully standing up for what they believe in. More of us can learn from this.
Am I under the right assumption that allisrael.com is kind of journalistically of good quality?
I mostly read local news media (EU) and whenever they refer to Hamas, they always refer to them as "terrorist organization Hamas" and always refer to Oct, 7th, even in most recent articles, always putting them in a bad spot, even if they write about israeli strikes on Gaza, etc.
However, going through some recent articles on allisrael.com they never put Hamas in a bad spot, but keep it neutral.
