Irish President Calls for Military Intervention in Israel, Also Hearts, Moons, Stars and Clovers

What is going on with Ireland? Many of us in the United States are baffled. You, see, thanks to the Irish Potato Famine, we here in the United States are blessed to have many friends and even family with Irish heritage. Even this Jewish writer has a Jewish wife with Irish blood.

By all measures, the Irish are great people with the added bonus of having the best pubs in the country and gifting us with the Ruben sandwich.

And then there's this weird thing going on with Ireland proper.

If there was a Tweet that summarized the two paragraphs above, it would be this.

Here's what we're talking about.

Irish President Michael D. Higgins is calling for military action in Gaza.

He’s urging the UN to invoke Chapter 7, which would authorize an international force to secure and defend humanitarian aid corridors. pic.twitter.com/OES5c5tk9Y

What is the problem with this? Well, so-called 'anti-Zionists' might not have a clue, but let's look into it a bit.

Wait, the same Ireland that sat out WWII and is not a member of NATO is demanding military action? Seriously? https://t.co/NOPIt95UET

Yeah, that. Poor Fusilli Spock has been taking flak for this take all day from the Pakistani bots and leftists (not much of a difference, to be honest) all day, but he's right.

Hey! Now I'm a dork https://t.co/nr4i19yhAY

Is Ireland the most depraved Western country on Earth?

Refused to fight in WWII. Spends only 0.22% of its GDP on defense while expecting everyone around them to protect them. Attacks its own citizens for protesting Islamism. Now wants the UN to invade Israel.

Who’s worse? https://t.co/U8eXtoEHgf

That may not be fair, but they do seem to be the national version of a Columbia University campus activist.

Much like a tankie calling for political violence, this leprechaun expects other people to do the work for him. He’ll provide moral support in the form of a little jig. https://t.co/85mcdfum2W

Seriously.

This post could get really dark, so let's focus on the hilarity of the Irish President and his unintentionally unserious visage.

Nope, too much. Dial it back a bit.

Sadly, this appears to be the real face of political Ireland.
