Alcohol or sharia. Not even close.

LOL! Yup, Neither Ireland nor Mexico will ever go muzzie. Nor will Russia or Japan for that matter.

Jeb Bush is a maggot.

Good to know. Ireland is the only country on my bucket list.

That reminds me to wipe down all cooking utensils with pork fat.

I can’t seem to read the comments on the site, but anyway...

Ireland does not exists for the benefit of Jews. Unlike the Jews the Irish only have one homeland. Ireland should maintain itself for the benefit of the Irish.

It seems strange to celebrate their wariness of one Middle-Eastern tribe while decrying their suspicion of another Middle-Eastern tribe. Neither have any real connection to the indigenous people.

Israel considers modern-day Ireland the most anti-Semitic country in Europe. BDS mania is all the rage there. This from a country that once was the least anti-Semitic. But that’s secularism.

The Irish hate their own family members of they root for a rival soccer team. What makes anyone think they’d like a different nationality!?

Well, how about someone publish a list of countries in the Islamic world that are the least-friendly to Christians?

Oh! That would be ALL of them. Nevermind.

I don’t know where you get the idea that Ireland was the least anti-Semitic nation in Europe. Anti-Semitism, linked as it was to a particular ultramontane strain of Catholicism that was popular in Ireland, was surprisingly widespread in a nation that actually had very few Jews. It still is, but now they dress it up in the language of the Palestine conflict.

I can’t speak about Holland or the Scandinavian countries but the least anti-Semitic nation in Europe in my view would have been poor old much-maligned England.

“Nor will Russia or Japan for that matter.”

Russia?

The population of ethnic Russians is dropping like a stone as drink, drugs and abortion wipes them out. There is only one demographic in Russia that is on the rise, go on guess what that is? Huge swathes of southern Russia are already de facto Islamic territory.

It’s a toss up who will end up with the best of the pickings from the carcass of the Russian bear in 50 years time, the Chinese or the Muslims.

Well, surely Dublin had a strong Jewish community at one time. And I don’t remember any pograms - although I could be wrong.

There is a difference between criticism of Israel and antisemitism.

Scotland and Wales included in that?.

Thank you for saying that, too often we British have to sit here and read utter crap about supposed UK anti-Semitism.

Not in my book. Do you support the BDS movement?

The BDS thing derives from the same diversity/multicultural virus that infects all White European peoples. They see Israel defending its own racial, ethnic, and cultural identity as evil, just as they see defending their own racial, ethnic, and cultural identity as evil. Not so much “better dead than red” but “better dead than racist.”

There is imo.

One is (or should be) genuine criticism of a nation state, the other is just vile hatred of a peoples.

IMO its utterly lazy to equate the two. If I criticise Israel, then I am no more ‘antisemitic’ than I am ‘racist’ if I criticise Obama (whom I cant abide). At best, its lazy. At worst, its an obnoxious and frankly shameful trick to shut down any discussion of any issue.

As to BDS, of course I don’t. I think its moronic and hateful. And if anything degrades any genuine legitimate criticism of Israel, and replaces it with ranting loons.

Israel, like any country, group or person, MUST be allowed to be criticised. Of course, that right MUST also bring with it the responsibility to criticise fairly and without any recourse to racial and religious background.

This of course goes same if the criticised is ethnic, gay, female or another nation state with a defined racial/religious identity.

IMO, IMO! (What does that mean?)

I am not trying to shut down any discussion. I simply have my own opinion and will stick to it. You are entitled to have yours. I think we should agree to disagree.

Go, Bibi!
