It was quite incredible to hear the Taoiseach at Leaders' Questions again and again refuse to condemn the criminal US and Israeli bombing of Iran. His refusal to tell the very simple truth that this attack is in violation of international law is a shocking illustration of his Government's subordinate position to US imperialism and his moral cowardice in seeking not to irritate Donald Trump in advance of meeting with him. Over 700 people have been killed so far. Israel has commenced a land invasion into Lebanon forcing 30,000 people to flee. Almost 200 people, overwhelmingly young schoolchildren together with teachers, were killed in one strike alone at a primary school. These were seven- to 12-year-old girls. What position has the Taoiseach gotten himself into where he cannot condemn the murder of children?
