Robot submarines mapping the seabed for offshore wind farms and engaging in maritime surveillance.
Ireland once again a laboratory of empire with the
convergence of the energy transition, advanced tech and militarisation.

Internal documents from a lobbying group representing international arms manufacturers show plans to target politicians, influence policymakers and place articles in the media – despite acknowledging the public is not interested in greater arms spending.

'What can we do to divert the skills and resources of humanity away from the preparation of war and towards economic and social improvement? How can the course of history be turned away from death and towards life?'

@SimonHarrisTD @MichealMartinTD why not take action against team G3nocid3 instead of Mothers Against G3nocide @NoG3nocide?
Why abondon @UNRWA and international law? Why run around with 3thnic cle4nsing cowboys?
Take a stand! Pass the Occupied Territories Bill now!

Mothers Against Genocide protesting again outside Leinster House.
Kildare Street is currently completely blocked to traffic.
Around 100 people protesting.

But we do share an experience with the majority world of being colonised, which explains our long history of neutrality - a natural antipathy to joining imperial wars.

This morning Israel announces that “it is seizing large areas of Gaza” as it continues to murder hundreds of kids.
The end game is now fully public.
It was always about taking Gaza never about anything else.
And Europe sits by arming it and smiling. – at Dublin City, Ireland

Shame on all those who voted (or abstained) to remove the Triple Lock. They all know it protects our neutrality. They all know it will mean Irish men and women, our children, fighting and dying in overseas wars that we have no business fighting in.

James Connolly and Countess Markievicz, two of Ireland's greatest revolutionaries formed the Irish Neutrality League in 1914 to oppose War and Empire -today FF/FG want to destroy our neutrality to align with the US empire & EU militarists who are arming Israel's genocide in Gaza

Next Wednesday, 2nd April in TCD.
An evening of talks on Irish neutrality and the legacy of Frank Aiken. With the Government trying to scrap the Triple Lock, more important than ever to reactivate our tradition of internationalist, non-alignment.

Good piece by Dr Ray Bassett, former Irish Ambassador to Canada, Jamaica and the Bahamas on Irish neutrality. Identifies the gulf between those in elite positions wanting to play a role in EU security issues and the natural reluctance of ordinary people.

There are so many fronts at the moment as the Govnt clings to the coat-tails of the US and EU - Palestine, Shannon LNG and the Triple Lock. The campaign to protect Irish neutrality is at the heart of it.

The usual media sources are pumping out misinformation about the Triple Lock nineteen to the dozen. The law sets out in black and white that the UN General Assembly can mandate an Irish mission, yet it is falsely stated that members of the UN Security Council have a "veto".

☮️ 🇮🇪 As Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and the Greens get ready to ditch a core part of Ireland's neutrality, they still can't actually explain to people what overseas mission they want to send Irish troops on but from which they are currently being prevented – @mattcarthy
