Chants of “[baby killers out of Bray!](https://x.com/irlisrAlliance/status/2060993975838703708?s=20&ref=aontachtmedia.ie)” erupted on Bray’s Main Street yesterday, Saturday 30 May, as part of a protest against an event hosted by the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem (ICEJ). 

The ICEJ, one of the largest Christian Zionist organisations in the world, hosted a pro-Israel event at Cornerstone Church, the site of the [oldest Protestant church](https://heritage.wicklowheritage.org/places/bray/st%5Fpauls%5Fchurch?ref=aontachtmedia.ie) in Ireland. At the forefront of the event was an Irish Christian duo, Paul and Pamela Coulter, as well as [Sergey Kapishnikov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sergey-kapishnikov-1474b118a/?ref=aontachtmedia.ie), an Israeli professor at University College Dublin.

The protest itself was supported by various pro-Palestine groups, including North Wicklow Against Genocide, the Kildare and Wicklow branches of the Ireland–Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC), Your Tech = Their Deaths, and Pals for Palestine. Also involved was the [ex-Zionist](https://x.com/gra%5FdEirinn/status/2061031509809656115/photo/4?ref=aontachtmedia.ie) American creative [Joseph 'Joey' von Meding](https://www.instagram.com/joeydoesstuff85/?ref=aontachtmedia.ie). 

On Sunday 31 May, the day after the event, some of Ireland’s most prolific Zionists, including [Alan Shatter](https://x.com/Alan%5F%5FShatter/status/2061065312074694770?ref=aontachtmedia.ie) and the [Ireland Israel Alliance](https://x.com/irlisrAlliance/status/2060993975838703708?ref=aontachtmedia.ie), took to the internet to condemn the anti-Zionist demonstrators, who were characterised as representatives of an “unhinged, radical fanaticism”.

This anti-Zionist action follows a previous victory in April, when a contingent of civil society organisations including Irish Sport for Palestine [successfully forced the cancellation](https://www.facebook.com/IrishSportForPalestine/posts/the-national-boxing-stadium-in-dublin-have-cancelled-the-israeli-zionist-icej-co/122241478364142765/) of an ICEJ event at the National Boxing Stadium in Rialto, Dublin.
