From an international point of view, and as I said, I was there in 2019, nothing has happened in those 16 years except more atrocities and more people killed. As I explained to everyone in Ireland, Gaza is 41 km long by 10 km wide with 2 million people locked in. We are talking about the International Court of Justice, action being taken by South Africa there, and a whole lot of other sanctions at UN level, but we still have a major problem as regards any action being taken against Israel.
