Well, absolutely.
Yeah.
I mean, it's all connected, isn't it?
And many of whom are children.
I mean, I suppose it's worth noting that there are still people taking action all around the world trying to protest what Israel is doing.
I saw a really gorgeous video actually of people in Australia en masse singing a pop song, which includes the phrase from the river to the sea, because apparently they're not allowed to use that phrase at the moment.
And so they were just singing the song, like loads of people singing and dancing, singing the song and then singing that section of the song really loud.
I don't know when that video was from, but it came up on my social media this morning.
And then, of course, in Ireland, we have Lelia Doolin, who is 91 years old, who completed a 220 kilometer walk in protest against the use of Shannon Airport as a stopover for U.S.
military flights this week, which is just, I mean, remarkable, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Let's move on and talk about Daniel Kinahan.
I feel like Daniel Kinahan is a name that is familiar for lots of Irish people.
And lots of Irish people will, of course, be aware of the Kinahans and the Hutches and crime in Ireland.
What exactly has happened?
This is a tricky thing to talk about as well.
So I'm conscious of that for you and I, because our defamation laws in Ireland are extremely tight.
And so some of the reporting you can read internationally about Daniel Kinahan is a lot more frank than we are able to be under Irish law, which is ludicrous, really.
And I was going to recommend a piece by Ed Caesar in The New Yorker, which is also very, very good, which I shared recently on my on my social media.
And I'll link in the show notes because that's another quite thorough, really, really good, solid piece.
