I do not trust Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael with Irish neutrality. For example, the Department of Defence has just contracted a US defence agency based in the pentagon to redesign the Irish Defence Forces. In the blurb on its website, this US pentagon-based company says it is grounded in American values. Maybe they are the values of Donald Trump as he has shown in a video the Tánaiste may have seen about Gaza, with statues of Trump and dollar signs being made by Trump in Gaza. Should we trust Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil, given that millions of US troops were allowed go through Shannon Airport, in a neutral country, to prosecute wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? The Government has involved us in PESCO and the EU militarisation project, which is in turn aligned with NATO, dominated by the United States, Germany and Britain. Why would we trust you with neutrality?
