"I strongly believe, like any state, Israel has a right to defend itself, has the right to go after Hamas, so they can not do this again," Mr Varadkar said.
This is the problem though isn't it?
What is defending itself? Killing Hamas fighters once they are in Israel's? Yep that's pretty uncontroversial. Striking sites which launch missiles? That's fine, as long as they're not in populated areas, which they are. Etc.
Likewise what does going after Hamas look like?
It's just as much of an empty political statement as anyone else's really.
