Great news. Every single tiny bit of divestment and boycotting is working.

> It recently sought bidders for a contract to supply 14 drones to the Irish Army, which military sources previously suggested Israeli arms companies would be well placed to win.
> Responding to queries last month, the Department of Defence said at that point there were no restrictions on Israeli companies bidding for the contract. Defence officials said that, despite Government criticism, “there has been no change of policy regarding Defence Forces use of Israeli-made military equipment”.
So we have current contracts, they will not be affected, and actually there has been no change at all according to the Defence Forces. And this has to do with the West Bank ruling in July, and not the charge of genocide, 50,000 dead, or apocalyptic bombing of hospitals & schools
Lovely headline, shame about the truth.
