Would you have said up Hamas, up Hezbollah at a gig?
00:05
I don't know. I don't know.
00:07
It's not something that I would have thought about
00:09
if you're suggesting to me would I go and do it tonight.
00:11
Well, Hamas, as far as I know, are not a prescribed group in Ireland.
00:16
I think this whole period is, I hope,
00:18
going to bring about a really honest
00:21
and not hysterical conversation about resistance.
00:25
For me to say that I'm against resistance movements
00:27
would be ludicrous because I'm Irish.
00:29
If it wasn't for resistance movements,
00:31
I wouldn't live in a free, independent,
00:33
albeit partly free and independent country.
00:37
We need to have a serious, non-hysterical conversation about resistance
00:40
in the same way that we have to have a serious,
00:42
non-hysterical conversation about cancelling people
00:44
for their thoughts and words,
00:46
as opposed to looking at governments for their ridiculous deeds.
00:48
Even the fact that we're talking about this right now,
00:51
in a way, also kind of gets in the way of the real conversations
00:56
that we should be having, maybe not us specifically,
00:58
but that the world should be having,
01:00
which is the fact that the West is aiding and abetting
01:02
an ongoing genocide and mass starvation,
01:06
engineered by a rogue state, is going on
01:08
and we're all sitting around chatting
01:10
and hoping our governments will suddenly see the light
01:13
and do the right thing.
