it wasnt just potatoes and it wasnt just a famine. english landlords decided their profits were worth more than irish lives and so they stole all their food crops and sold it for export.
I honestly think the original ah lads not again post is the funniest

Irish MEP Clare Daly calls for tangible action against Israel
Pointing out that formal Irish recognition of Palestine is already decades late, the Independent MEP proposed that more needs to be done. She suggested an arms embargo and the suspension of Irish trade with Israel.

YEAH!! you go girls! You did amazing, the true winners of the match!
it’s funny how nobody would’ve batted an eye to a peaceful protest like this if it were to say the Russian team last year.

Let us be very clear: Hamas breached international law on the 7th of October. Hamas targeted innocent civilians in the most callous and inhumane manner, and their actions have been rightly condemned by right thinking people across the world.
But we should also be very clear, Israel has breached international law, not just every day since October the 7th, but virtually every single day for decades.
Israel occupies Palestinian land, against international law.
Israel blockades Palestinian territory, against international law.
Israel builds and expands illegal settlements, against international law.
Israel enforces an apartheid system that restricts the movements of Palestinians and denies their fundamental rights, against international law.
And Israel regularly and systematically attacks and kills Palestinian civilians, against international law.
So the question that must be answered by all of us in political life is this: How does the world respond to flagrant abuses of international law when it comes to the horrendous war crimes of Hamas? The response was very clear and very consistent. World leaders queued up to say Israel has the right to defend itself. One after another repeated their words the great and the good, including our government.
“Israel has the right to defend itself.”
Repeated in statement after statement, tweet after tweet, despite the full knowledge that those words have become contaminated. The words, “Israel has the right to defend itself” means in practice that Israel takes that right as license to bombard civilians, to bomb schools, hospitals and other civilian infrastructure. And it has now been taken as license to enforce the displacement of 1 million people from one end of an open air prison to another. To deny food, energy, medical supplies to a besieged civilian population, to actually deny them water, to ensure that children, the sick, the disabled, the elderly will literally die of thirst.
“Israel has the right to defend itself” has now become cover for, “Israel has the right to commit genocide.”
Right in front of our eyes. How come we never hear the words, “Palestine has the right to defend itself”?
Not when a humanitarian flotilla bringing essential supplies to Gaza is met with a military assault and the murder by Israel of nine unarmed activists.
Not when Palestinians march in peaceful protests against illegal blockade and are met again with a military assault and the murder of 300 of them.
Not after the countless bombings of Gaza by Israeli forces.
Not even when Israel targeted and murdered four little Palestinian boys playing football on a beach.
And not when Palestinians were dragged from their homes and forced to watch as those homes were destroyed to allow for new illegal Israeli settlements on lands that are clearly defined in international law as part of Palestine.
And not after the countless offensive attacks by Israel against the people of Gaza or the West Bank, have we or any heard anybody in this house or any Western leader uttered the words, “Palestine has the right to defend itself.”
And why not?
And by the way, I'm not asking you to say those words. And in fact, it's just as well you don't. Because we all know that the people of Palestine can't defend themselves, not against one of the most powerful military forces in the world that is backed up by even more powerful military forces.
The truth is that the people of Palestine, just like the innocent people of Israel, don't need the international community to tell them that their leaders have the right to inflict more bombings, more pain, more suffering. They need the international community to say, “Stop.” To release the hostages, to say stop the bombings, the siege, the slaughter. They need the international community to tell Israel to stop the blockade, stop the apartheid, stop the annexations, to stop the genocide.
And they need countries Tánaiste to lead the way. And Ireland should be one of those countries that leads the way.
We know colonialism.
We know oppression.
We know conflict.
But we also know conflict resolution.
We know peace building.
We know nation building.
And because of what we know, what our history has taught us, our call tonight must be clear, immediate, full and unequivocal ceasefire fires and a decisive international intervention that leads to negotiations and to a lasting and just peace settlement and to, at long last, to a free, sovereign and independent Palestine.🇵🇸

Right, but "not an age-appropriate way to teach the Holocaust."
To go deep on the sentence structure, the prepositional phrase communicates the purpose, and goes on to call it a "false construction of history [to do so (inferred)]."
They're using this as a specific example of a broader trend they're noticing, both in Holocaust contexts and out.
The complaint is specifically about the trend of:
replacing of primary sources with fictions
shifting the narrative focus from the victims to the perpetrators (not explicitly Nazis at the camp, but a gentile german kid)
stripping specific details to a broader, less-defined metaphor for discrimination.
This person may specifically have an issue with Striped Pajamas itself; it seems like they do but i won't specifically ascribe a perspective to them when I've only ever seen this person talk about it in this specific context.
But I would agree with them that replacing Maus with Striped Pajamas is a fundamentally Bad Thing To Do. You can have anti-genocide fiction, but that fills a different purpose than Maus. The two can exist side-by-side, and probably should be. But replacing one with the other explicitly chooses to tell one story about the Holocaust instead of the other.
Maus tells the story of Jewish people, from a Jewish perspective, during the Holocaust. I wouldn't accept a school replacing The Diary of Phyllis McCormack with some novel about an English kid with an Irish Catholic friend either.

Pro-Israel Twitter is calling for Ireland to be conquered to 'solve the issue of living space' and so they will 'no longer make fun of Israel'.

Folks, what's happening in Lebanon is another mark on the laundry list of crimes Israel will probably never be prosecuted for.
On an unrelated note, listen to the Blindboy Podcast. It's a hug in podcast form. And we need all the hugs we can get in this world (providing physical contact is your thing). Skip the episode Shovel Duds (an early episode, the story at the end is a bit rough, all of his other short fiction is extremely good though).
