WCNSF is the new acronym being used by medics tending to victims of Israel's bombs. It stands for "wounded child, no surviving family."

More than 4,000 children have died as a result of that bombing campaign. More than that number will need surgery repeatedly throughout the course of their lives. Criticisms of the Israeli assault have been raised in recent days by the Taoiseach and the Tánaiste but when we watch a potential genocide unfold before our eyes, we have to ask ourselves whether that is enough. The time has come for words to be matched by actions. It is past time to expel the Israeli ambassador from this country. What would it take for the Taoiseach to do so? Would it take the death of 5,000, 10,000 or more than 10,000 children? Where does he draw the line? I think we should be told.
