Background information
Philip Dunne
Director for ASEAN & Taiwan at IDA Ireland | Singapore
Based in Singapore and operating at the Irish Embassy, Philip Dunne serves as the Director for ASEAN and Taiwan at IDA Ireland, the investment promotion agency of the Irish government.
On the social media platform X, under the display name “Jon Amaya” (username “Jonamaya2019”), he targets Jews with antisemitic comments, abuse, and veiled threats. Additionally, we have uncovered messages on his timeline expressing support for Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), as well as justifications for the terror attacks against Israelis on October 7, 2023. Utilising open-source information, our researcher has revealed his true identity, and we will report his online conduct to his employer, IDA Ireland. We urge you to do the same.
Below, we include screenshots that exemplify his antisemitism and apparent support for proscribed terrorist organizations.
ANTISEMITIC ABUSE & VEILED THREATS
Note 1: The term “Zio” is an antisemitic slur commonly used by neo-Nazis and white supremacists to refer to Jews. It was first popularised by David Duke, the former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.
