this appears to be the Israeli Embassy in Ireland's official facebook page

apparently, "The Embassy of Israel is dedicated to promoting diplomatic relations, economic growth & friendship between the State of Israel & Ireland"

i wouldnt waste much time reading their propaganda, but a cursory glance on the page accuses Ireland of "naively" supporting the UN vote in favour of Palestinian observer status, or whatever it was called. Charming

Minister Shatter should have a word with his mates

I think a "I like c@ck" would have been a better frape

In fairness, I'm pretty sure the entire nation of Israel don't use that Facebook account.

If Jesus was alive today, I would imagine he's have exactly the same sentiment for the IDF as he had for the money changers in the Temple, and the "teachers" who were going against everything they were supposed to stand for... Just a thought

I, like the rest of you I'm sure, am highly offended by this message.

Jesus and Mary are not dead as the suggest. Jesus rose from the dead and then ascended to Heaven while Mary was assumed, body and soul, into Heaven.

Did these Israelis not learn this when they made their confirmation?

shedweller

If Jesus was around today, he'd want to pull some serious stunts to avoid ending up in a straitjacket! Can you imagine the comments on the youtube videos??!!

I thought Jesus was alive?

As a minister for magic once said: Can a man ever be truly alive, if he cannot die?

I have more respect for the Israeli goverment than our own shower. At least they care about their citizens and look after the interests and safety of the citizens.

Get a grip...

Irish Citizens aren't that high up the list

First they steal our passports, now this.

I'm going to have to write a strongly worded email to someone.

Cookie_Monster

that was nice of them, to take 5 mins out from driving their tanks around Palestine to post a festive message

Israeli embassy's Christmas message to Ireland

''Can you provide us with the details of some of your recently deceased citizens, we've got a covert operation in Palestine and we need to knock up a few fake passports....''

Chuck Stone

It was a stupid mistake and it was apologised for.

What's the big deal?

an apology we can't view now, apparently...

If Jesus was alive today, he would have been arrested as a con artist, ridiculed on Facebook for starting a cult, or he'd be a Fianna Fail politician.

They have deleted the facebook page in the hopes of it going away.

Usual Israeli foreign office nonsense.

Who killed Jesus?Not Palestinians that's for sure..

But it never appeared on the embassy homepage on the first place, that was my point.

And since when is questioning something and asking for a source more "embarrassing" than swallowing the whole story and following the herd simply because someone said so on the internet?
