Ireland wasn’t an axis power. The Irish Republican Army was supported by the Nazis, but the Irish Republican Army was a paramilitary organization and despite the name was in fact not the army of the Republic of Ireland. Also: some IRA members were a little bit commie leaning politically. It was really more of a "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" situation, but the Irish were never Nazis. Although it’s confusing because the Nazis made "pro Irish" propaganda films like My Life for Ireland, which were really just attempts to justify going to war with an Anglo Saxon nation by making the British look like oppressors.

Some of them were Marxist leaning atheists who were against British imperialism, and some of them were socially conservative Catholics who were against British Protestantism. Which is one of the few times in history the Catholics and the communists actually agreed on something.

Also if there ever was any antisemitism in Ireland, that wouldn’t be evidence of Irish people being Nazis. Hitler didn’t invent antisemitism, he was baptized and confirmed as a Roman Catholic, but later in life he strayed away from the church in order to justify his anti semitism (Jesus being a Jew was inconvenient), but Germany was already antisemitic for hundreds of years. Jews don’t believe that Jesus is God, and Catholics believed that to be against Jesus was to be against God, and if God is absolute good then to be against God, you must be absolute evil. Which is why a lot of European cities had Jewish ghettos for hundreds of years during the Middle Ages. Hitler just capitalized on a pre-existing prejudice. Although, modern Irish support for Palestine has more to do with the recent memory of the troubles in Ireland than it does with hating Jewish people for not believing in Jesus or for hating Jewish people because of a non-existent alliance with Hitler.

London is less than 50% white British, Britain is less than 50% Christian, and you’re saying Ireland is the one that’s too woke? Sure thing. I’ll let you believe that.

In general, Ireland is different from the rest of Europe. Most of Europe is very pro Israel and pro American, but Ireland isn’t a NATO member, there are zero American military bases in Ireland, but they’re still a strong democracy and EU member. They just have a different worldview, but it’s not inherently bad. If you look into their history, it makes perfect sense.

Also, at a national level, Ireland doesn’t have any far right political parties which hold seats in government. So calling them Nazis wouldn’t really make a lot of sense.

There are basically only a couple far right parties in Ireland, but if you look into how unpopular they are, it’s comedic. For example, the Irish Freedom Party has 1 out of 949 seats in local government and zero seats in national government.

In theory I am. It's weird one can be labeled as a supporter of Jesus the Jew at birth or NOT.
I still say the body politics of Palestine make no sense to me. Clearly they know Israel and Egypt were once bitter enemies.
Because they chose to support Hamas, they stand no chance of a decent life.

Why have you turned so bitter.
I worked for 6 solid months in Israel. Food of Israel Sucks. So, I often went to the West Bank aka Palestine for food.
AMAZING Food that cannot be found in USA because of super high labor cost. Druze who never take sides and get along with everyone make the very best food.
Many trips to Israel over the many years.

(If it was another group of people we’d call breeding withIN a group something else but I’m not antisemitic so I’m not gonna call it that.)
IF your next door neighbor fired rockets into your home and on occasion broke in and kidnaped and then raped a family member - I doubt you would just sit back and take it.

The solution is so very simple and Gaza has a next door neighbor that was always on Israel's back. The last time Egypt attacked Israel -On 5 June 1967 Israel fought back with a 6 day war.
" The Camp David Accords, signed by President Jimmy Carter, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin in September 1978, established a framework for a historic peace treaty concluded between Israel and Egypt in March 1979."
The people of Palestine chose Hamas. Hamas has of course invited Israel into Gaza after the well executed October surprise.
The result of course in so much of this.
Given the people of Palestine asked for it - Moslems say Allah provides. Palestine people can look around and will learn to live with the rubble.

I am very serious about a solution for Gaza. However with so much MORE unlimited hate among those Muslims - I see no chance in hell, a Israel Egypt solution will work in my or your lifetime.

OF COURSE there is Jewish hate. Lots of it. Dem Jews have proven they can turn hate into friendship re Egypt.
I often forget this - My very first engineering job was to design improvements for Jets USA sold to Israel.
