What sanctions is the State going to look at imposing in order to increase international political pressure on Israel? This is a continuation of the questions that I have asked about what we can achieve at a European level. If we cannot do it at a complete EU level, can we at least do it among those other states, like Belgium, that look at the issue in Gaza more from our perspective, rather than encounter the difficulties the Tánaiste referred to in the context of Germany? He spoke about a structured relationship that may be possible with Palestine, but there needs to be some means of holding Israel to account for its crimes.
