To follow up on what all the speakers have said, we have all seen the mass slaughter of the Palestinians by a particular Israeli regime that has never been held to account in any way, shape or form. I accept the difficulties there are at European level. The Taoiseach has spoken about that before. We are down to what sanctions and what we can do to hold Israel to account, even if it is in a small way, while accepting that this is not going to stop that particular regime. We have to take a first step because nobody else is. The Taoiseach spoke about a number of other European countries that are similar to us in their view. What can we do alongside them? What timeframe are we looking at to do something substantial that calls out what the Israelis are doing?
