Ireland's Voice of Conscience: PM Simon Harris Condemns Israel’s "Diplomacy of Distraction
Standing for Justice, Ireland Refuses to be Silenced on Gaza's Humanitarian Crisis

In a powerful and unwavering statement, Prime Minister Simon Harris of the Republic of Ireland criticised Israel’s policies as acts of “distraction,” reaffirming Ireland’s commitment to standing by the Palestinian people. Speaking from a Dublin suburb, Harris expressed deep disapproval of Israel’s recent diplomatic decision to close its embassy in Ireland, declaring, “We know right from wrong.”
Harris condemned the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, focusing on the suffering of children, the escalating civilian death toll, and the blockade on essential aid. His comments struck a defiant tone: “Do you know what I think is reprehensible? Killing children… Seeing the scale of civilian deaths… People being left to starve.”
As the international community grapples with the conflict, Ireland’s firm stance shines as a beacon of moral clarity, challenging nations to confront the humanitarian reality in Gaza. Harris’s words signal a call to conscience for global leaders to move beyond political deflections and take meaningful action to protect the innocent.
