I say to the Taoiseach that there are no red lines for Israel. There is no atrocity it will not commit or horror it will not perpetrate. The latest one is by any definition an act of reckless, murderous state terrorism. This is the evil genius of getting thousands of pagers and putting explosives inside the pagers and then simultaneously detonating them all over Lebanon and parts of Syria. The mind boggles. To be honest, it is terrifying and this is after they have killed more than 40,000 in Gaza in the past few weeks, attacking schools and so-called safe areas and bombing tents. These people are absolutely out of control. They could not do that without the enabling of the United States, Britain, Germany and significant powers in Europe who are giving them the weapons and means to do that.

Does the Taoiseach agree that this is an act of state terrorism? When are we going to insist that we stop treating this regime as if it was a normal state? It should be fully boycotted and all relations between itself and the European Union should be shut down.
