Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar on Monday denounced Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris as an antisemite.

"Last night, the prime minister of Ireland, Simon Harris, the antisemite, said in an interview, 'Ireland is not anti-Israel, but Ireland categorically opposes the starvation of children, and opposes categorically the killing of civilians,'" Sa'ar told reporters at a meeting of his New Hope Party.

"Israel starves children? When Jewish children died of hunger in the Holocaust, you were at best neutral in the war against N**i Germany. Winston Churchill, during the war, in his speech on VE Day noted how Ireland had carried on a love affair with N**i Germany."

The Vatican has removed their controversial nativity display that showed baby Jesus lying in a keffiyeh after backlash from religious entities and individuals.

David Parsons described the display as “theological malpractice” adding, “if Jesus was a Palestinian Arab, then he would not have qualified to be Christ, the promised messiah and saviour of the world.”

“We know that Parliament spends far too much time obsessing over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This isn’t new.

“In the year after October 7, the JC revealed that MPs spent more time talking about Israel than about the NHS, which suggests something about their priorities” writes Lorin Bell-Cross, the JCs political correspondent.
