        The President identified the name of his friend, the Salvadoran lawyer Marianella Garcia who was raped and murdered by soldiers a year after a fact-finding mission to the country led by Mr Higgins to investigate a massacre at the rural village of El Mozote.

        The President also paid his respect to Archbishop Romero, whose name is included among the over 30,000 names on the monument honouring those murdered during the Civil War in El Salvador.

        Human rights? Human rights were taken from the unborn children were they not? You sir are a first class hypocrite.

        PRESIDENT of "ILAND" It sounds like YOU need to go PUNK! UNBORN are not for KILLING, they are expected to be PROTECTED and PRESERVED for a potentially GREAT LIFE. Is that what YOU are LIVING for? It's sick that YOU can't imagine that for others.pic.twitter.com/5tYBMe0SUG

        To all you supporters of abortion, including President Higgins: "The law of God which says thou shalt not kill must come before any human order to kill. It is high time you recovered your conscience," Couldn't have said it better than Oscar Romero. Are you listening, Michael D?

        Proof positive, yet again, that there is no maximum limit to the height of humanly attainable hypocrisy. 😢
