Trinity to work towards total divestment from Israel in unprecedented win for BDS

Trinity has agreed to work towards total divestment from Israeli institutions in an unprecedented victory for Trinity Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS).

Trinity encampment protestors, who have camped in Fellows’ Square for five nights, have unanimously agreed to accept College’s terms on cutting ties.

Following a meeting at 1pm today, Trinity College Dublin Students Union (TCDSU) President László Molnárfi, president-elect Jenny Maguire, BDS Chair Isobel Duffy and Postgraduate Workers’ Organisation (PWO) Chair Conor Reddy announced to the camp that College has agreed to work towards their demands.

Not surprised that an Irish institution was receptive to the protests given their history

Ireland is known for having the most support for the Palestinian cause in all of Europe for exactly the reason you imply - they know what it's like to suffer under violent colonial rule.

Irish support for Palestine is well known enough that there was a sporting furor last year when an Israeli team said in a pregame interview "we expect a tough match because everyone knows the Irish are all antisemitic", conflating support for Palestine with antisemitism.
