The Jewish Representative Council of Ireland has said it is "disappointing" that Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald has yet to condemn "offensive comments" by TD Réada Cronin.

"A little education on what constitutes anti-semitism would go a long way to correcting this problem," he said.She has issued a statement in which she "unreservedly and wholeheartedly" apologised and said the tweets were "glib" and "off-the-cuff". Mr Doherty, who is leading Sinn Féin negotiations on government formation, said he did not believe the comments would have implications on talks with other parties, which he said were about "serious substantive issue" around health and housing.

Israel 🇮🇱 have committed war crime s this is a fact “ and land Grab “ is also a fact “ Not A SF supporter but there is a light that need s to be shun on Them

No, just no. Here's the picture re comparison with troll Farm.

What was anti-Semitic about her comments

It is widely known that Zionist israel use antisemitism to distract against their apartheid regime and the people who stand against it. With the use of global control of media its surprisingly effective. RTE not surprisingly has stopped to this level.

This would be more like it perhaps. Shaking hands with the devil himself. A man who is to face war crime charges and should not be allowed see the light of day again.

That's how they describe anyone who has a different opinion than them.

The Jewish what ?

Your new government folks 👍

What about her calling the judiciary “paedophiles”

Hi MaryERegan you refer to the viewpoint of 'the Jewish community' & then give the viewpoint of just one person/org. That is in & of itself antisemitic to treat all Jewish people as one entity & not acknowledge there are many differing & varied views within their community

MaryERegan SF need to evolve. They need to adopt Bernie language.

MaryERegan Fine Gael are fascists & racists since they were formed. The familiy of Patrice Lumumba, the assassinated Prime Minister of Congo, have demanded an apology from Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny, who called the revered African liberation hero a 'nigger' in a racist joke. racism

Are the RTE researchers not getting bored of checking years of every social media account belonging to the newly elected SF tds since they won the election. Hope SF reneges on the government funding for the right wing tabloid you are now. You're fed the news not seeking it now.

Can’t defend those comments

What did the Jewish representatives Council of Ireland say about the illegal settlements in Israel. Do your actual job RTE?

Israelis are not a different race, Israel is a disgrace & any Jewish person who stands by the behaviour of Israel on Palestine land is against human rights according to the UN and most normal people. Israel knows they deserve condemnation from the world!

I wonder does it have anything to do with paddy power? Mary Lou is favorite to be Taoiseach.

helping Sinn Fein all the way to the top. 👍🏻👍🏻✊🏻✊🏻🇮🇪🇮🇪

I think there is a confusion between Zionism and Jewish. She unfortunately made the error of mixing up remarks regarding Nazism and state of Israel a Zionist state. Not all Jews are Zionist and support Israels Palestine policy. It is insensitive to the Jewish people and Holocaust

That’s four times you said this on your timeline . Im waiting for the four dead people to be mentioned . Suppose they don’t score political points for the establishment

Digging something up that was said in 2014 This is a disgrace find all you can of SF and stop them getting into government. Try something said or done to drive the British from our land. FF FG and SF are brothers who all fought the British.

“But the IRA...!” Narrative isn’t working so they’re switching it up 🙄

Of course they are if a member of the public said them the Gardaí would be called

This is IHRA definition of antisemitism.......This is the reason leadership of SF said the tweets were wrong

the only thing she said that was bad in this report was the fluoride thing , fuck isreal, its a racist ethnostate. claiming being anti isreal is anti semitic is in itself antisemitic. the right wing government of isreal does not represent all jews.

She is a let down all the people who vote for her. As. Now saying. Got our vote once Never again will have our vote 🗳

rte is rubbish breakingnews

Did they get outraged by the daily genocide of the Palestinian people by the state of Israel? If ever a people know about terror and hatred it is the Jews. How some of the can do what those Nazis did is quite unbelievable. Fair play to Riada for highlighting this madness.

Did RTE interview the Nigerian community when that dose Noel Grealish targeted them? That didn't suit the anti Sinn Fein agenda though did it. You don't give a crap about the Jewish community or anyone else for that matter when your puppet masters in fffg click their fingers

I don’t know why some people here are defending the comments. Even Sinn Fein say they are wrong.

Sinn Féin and the other political parties should adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of Anti-Semitism.....A reasonable request most parliaments in Europe have accepted it......Also allows strong criticism of Israel..

Meanwhile popularity of FG and FF continues to dip. You need to churn these articles out less rte. They're having a negative impact on FF & FG.

Are we really shocked that Sinn Féin are racists? They have done much worse to people bombs kneecapping extortion missingpeople

Coincidence🧐 I think not🙌🏻

Bottom of the barrel for the RTE, a sign the working class has spoken 😹

She also believes the earth is flat and dinosaurs exist

just kneecap her like the good old days.

2014 ... yee lads must be desperate.. Leo and Mehole telling you dig up anything, or anything ... FG FF propaganda channel in full melt down

'Inaccurate, anti-Semitic and racist': Jewish Council condemns newly-elected Sinn Féin TD's 'offensive' tweetsThe Jewish Representative Council of Ireland has condemned newly-elected Sinn Féin TD Réada Cronin's 'offensive' tweets. As a Jewish man I'm not surprised, sinn Fein supporters are usually antisemitic knuckle draggers And I condemned land grabbing, bombing schools and hospitals detaining children from the parents and persecuting a population. Those that defend the apartheid and racist state of Israel are in no moral position to lecture anyone else on what is offensive or not. Blowing children to bits, shooting them in the eye is 100 times more offensive than any written word can be.
