Did the council follow the correct process to name Herzog Park back in 1995? Or has Rathgar been living with Orwell Quarry Park all this time?

One could get lost in the legal thickets of this.

Now would be a good time for the Jewish community in Ireland to come out and reject the actions of the Israeli regime in Palestine.

A very good time. #HerzogPark

The #HerzogPark row in #Rathgar, #Dublin is using a lot of #iepol bandwidth. Even #SimonHarris and #MicheálMartin have weighed in, both looking ill-briefed.

The best account iI have seen is this thread on #Twitter / #X by #GarySpedding […]

It is said that a fish does not know that it is wet. When you swim in water all day, that is simply your natural state of being.
The alternative to being wet, for a fish, is being dead. A similar observation might be made about very many Irish people when it comes to antisemitism. Our Taoiseach can never tell us that a thing is antisemitic. This would be the equivalent of explaining to a salmon that it is immersed in water.
He can only tell us that the rest of the world might see it that way.
This allows us, as a people, the comfort of imagining that the rest of the world is simply incapable of understanding the subtleties and compassions of the Irish mind.

In the days to come there will be much chatter about how this – as the Taoiseach says – might be “seen” as antisemitic.

That’s not the problem. The problem is that #Ireland is, increasingly, an antisemitic country...

The proposal to rename #HerzogPark after #HindRajab is an understandable response to the calculated horror of her extraordinarily determined murder, aged only five. But it is mistaken. #Dublin certainly should have a memorial to Hind Rajab, but it should not replace this memorial in #Rathgar […]

But the proposed renaming of #HerzogPark has been badly mishandled.

#DublinCityCouncil #DCC officials misread the law, which has not yet been fully implemented. Some politicians wanted a Palestinian name for the park. #Taoiseach and #Tanaiste conceded to Israeli bullying.

...
In 1995, a small park in #Rathgar, #Dublin, was renamed in honour of #ChaimHerzog. The Orwell Quarry Park became #HerzogPark.

But in 2025, Irish public opinion has now turned heavily against #this rogue state and its #ethnicCleansing and ongoing #genocide. A […]

Further proof that #Ireland stands in solidarity with #Palestine - the renaming of #HerzogPark is being withdrawn and will not go to a vote, and the #FF/FG clusterfeck are about to completely dump the #OccupiedTerritoriesBill.
