Imagine, if you will, the following scenario:On April 31, 2024, with warrants issued by the Dublin District Court, An Garda Siochana officers raided the newsrooms of The Irish Times and RTE. The warrants authorised the raids to acquire film footage and photographs of the riots outside the Israeli Embassy the previous weekend, thereby to facilitate criminal proceedings against known anti-Israeli or pro-Hamas activists.

J. D. Vance fired a warning shot not so much across Europe’s bows as deep amidships in Munich last Friday. A comparably brutal honesty might well greet the mass-safari of our politicians to the US for the St Patrick’s Holiday.
