In this episode of The Stream, Anelise Borges delves into the deep-rooted historical connections between Ireland and Palestine, exploring why the Irish have shown such strong sympathy for the Palestinian cause.

We hear from Irish history expert Andy Clark, who sheds light on the parallels between British colonization of Ireland and Israeli actions in Palestine, highlighting shared strategies of land confiscation, religious polarization, and partition.

With insights from activists, comedians, and individuals personally affected by both colonial histories, we explore the solidarity that exists between the two nations and how it continues to shape the Irish response to the ongoing Palestinian struggle.
