Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

Yeah, well, Gary Murphy in The Sunday Times makes a similar point to Owen on why Qatar, you know, has not been treated like this.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

And I'd also add on to that list Saudi Arabia and the UAE, where in the same region, 150,000 women and children starved in the war.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

And there isn't a word about boycotting them.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

And yet, but, you know, and it's the same, by the way, in Sudan, where a proxy civil war has been funded on both sides by Saudi Arabia and UAE.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

And I don't choose between victims.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

I don't rank one set of victims above another set of victims.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

So I do think that we should be looking...

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

at all of these wars, and why are we elevating one particular state above another?

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

But Gary's piece... Why do you think we are?

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

Well, I put that question directly to Ivana Bacik at the McGill Summer School last year.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

Why do some deaths matter more than others?

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

And she did say that she had said things about Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but ultimately she said, because it's Israel.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

You know, it's who's doing the killing is getting the attention rather than who is being killed.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

But in Gary's piece in the Sunday Times, he's talking as well about the problem the FAI has.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

Well, I know what you mean.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

There's always been a huge amount of support for the Palestinians in Ireland.

Brendan O'Connor
The Newspaper Panel

It's just dismaying.
