Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said he does not regret saying the Israeli response to the 7 October Hamas attack was becoming "something more approaching revenge".

Varadkar is catching flak for saying very softly what the Israeli government has admitted openly since day one?

I'm sorry, making this post makes you an anti-semite.
I didn't down vote. I figured it was sarcasm.
It is sad that I need to confirm this.

He's a smarmy fuck, but when he feels like he's on the popular side he digs in.
This is the case with most leaders who condemned Israel. Jordan has a dictator who has left Jordanians to live under crushing poverty, Erdoğan kills Kurds wherever he can, Sisi is a military dictator who won Egypt with a coup, etc etc
Oh yeah, only bad people condemn Israel. Jeez getting pretty desperate here.. . why, propaganda not working recently?! :)
Huh?
Not what I was implying, just that I think this guy is an incredible prick who'd step over his own mother to be seen as a popular guy in the papers.
He is nothing close to a tyrannical leader, just a prick
