.Gerry Liston: Bill to ban goods from illegal Israeli settlements has no legal obstacles buff.ly/2AryHH3

Very proud that our co-founder Ioannis Kalpouzos will be a Lecturer on Law Harvard Law School for Spring 2020. He will be teaching a seminar on 'New Technologies and the Law of War'. hls.harvard.edu/faculty/directā¦

TƔnaiste Leo Varadkar makes a claim here that warrants addressing. Dismissing the Occupied Territories Bill, he suggests bias: "there are other occupied territories in the world, but people have so little to say about them. It's remarkable." Gary Gannon TD

I'm very proud of the work Christian Aid Ireland does standing up for Palestinian rights. Our work with partners in IOPT to highlight & challenge injustice isn't going to be deterred - and I'm glad this case is finally out in the open. Onwards. šµšø theguardian.com/global-developā¦
