Ireland sends a message of hope. #IsraelPalestineConflict Huge respect to Patrick Kielty for these important closing words on @RTELateLateShow FYI Patrick’s own father John "Jack" Kielty was shot dead in 1988 by a group calling themselves the Ulster Freedom Fighters (UFF) during the Troubles in N. Ireland. If anyone is qualified to talk about hope it’s @PatricKielty and the people of Ireland, where the mothers played a huge role in achieving “the miracle” of peace.
