Letter: A march in support of Israel will be held in Dublin tomorrow, Sunday May 26

A letter from Jackie Goodall, Executive Director of the Ireland Israel Alliance:

A Solidarity March and Rally for Israel will be held in Dublin tomorrow.

The Ireland Israel Alliance will be joining with a number of organisations including the Ireland branch of the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, All Nations Church Dublin, TJC ll, and the Irish Jewish and Israeli communities.

Our rally will include a number of key cross-community speakers including the newly inaugurated Chief Rabbi of Ireland, Yoni Wieder, as well as former Ireland Minister for Justice and Equality and Minister for Defence, Alan Shatter.

Rabbi Wieder’s speech will include personal testimonies from the Jewish community in Ireland who feel their viewpoint is being completely delegitimised by the Irish political and media establishments, as well as their feelings of betrayal at being told that their opinions have no space in Irish society at this time.

Date: Sunday 26th May; Time: 3pm. The march starts at the Harcourt Street end of Stephen’s Green and will gather at the gates of Dail Éireann in Kildare St, where the speeches will be made. We hope you will be able to attend this unique and timely event.

Jackie Goodall, Executive Director, Ireland Israel Alliance
