A Chanukkah message tweeted on Monday by the US envoy to Israel drew a critical response from Ireland’s top diplomat.
Ambassador David Friedman wrote, “More than 2000 years ago, Jewish patriots (Maccabees) captured Jerusalem, purified the Holy Temple and rededicated it as a house of Jewish worship. The U.N. cant vote away the facts: Jerusalem is the ancient and modern capital of Israel. Happy Chanukah from this blessed city!”
In response, Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs Simon Coveney tweeted,
“U are working on a New Peace Initiative that we all hope will be fair, balanced and successful. But comments like this will be seen as provocative and biased. Not helpful in creating the necessary environment of compromise. @UN @UNRWA”

There is a segment of Irish who are dumb as doorknobs that they don't even know what they are fighting about as has been evident from their history with the British. There is a segment even more radical than the IRA who wants to keep fighting even if England gives them everything. But even the IRA has long gotten cozy with Arab terrorists who just use them while laughing how dumb infidels can be. It's like the Palestinian who got an Irish gal pregnant & put her on a plane to Israel to "meet his parents". El Al security figured out she was intended to be an unwitting mule to blow the plane up.
This is assuming this Coveney wanker wasn't just drunk from a few pints which is par for the course.
