There were rumours of that. Now proven. How he is not banged up in prison is hard to believe.

Israel v Republic of Ireland: Republic of Ireland to wear black armbands for Israel game
Republic of Ireland players intend to wear black armbands "in recognition of all lives lost in the [Gaza] conflict" for match against Israel.www.bbc.co.uk

I haven't seen those pictures, but I know Ireland were the last team to play Germany before WW2. Israeli journalists referenced that in the press conference with Hallgrimsson. Truly ridiculous questions, playing the anti-Semitic card as they always do. Only one young man has come out of this whole affair with any integrity.I woke up to see that loads of their politicians are now putting out pictures of when England played Germany (the famous Nazi salute game) and pretending it was the Irish.
Got my tin foil hat on ....
Strange how whenever Israel has a bad week (i.e. the hounding in the UN this week) then suddenly 'Iran' or 'Russia' launch a low grade attack on a nation that didn't support them (Israel)
Sounds like a festering crock to me. If it was credible intel it wouldn't be shared at that level at all. It would be shared between the security services, and not just those within Israel either. There is also no record of any meeting having taken place at all. At the time, I recall that they were expecting a brokered deal with the Saudis and were actively trying not to inflame tensions even though there are always calls for attacks on varying Hamas targets in Gaza. We should however never let the facts get in the way of a good story, attempting to suggest Netanyahu ignored the threat because the massacre of civilians in Israel and the taking of hostages was a great precursor to a spot of 'genocide' in Gaza to boost his failing ratings.Straight from the Trump-Cohn playbook…
