The FAI has said that it will fulfil its Nations League fixtures against Israel later this year despite previously calling on Uefa to ban the team last year.
The association faced pressure on Friday to boycott the ties by some politicians and fans.
However, Fine Gael Senator Evanne Ní Chuilinn said the onus should be on global governing bodies to implement sanctions where they see fit.
She, alongside sports journalist Kieran Cunningham, speak to Matt on The Last Word about the issue.
