[url=http://www.unison.ie/irish_independent/stories.php3?ca=9&si=907976&issue_id=8669]Ireland failed to help Jews under threat from Nazis, says minister[/url]
Usual mixture of violins and handwringing, however there a couple of paragraphs are worth noting:
...The Minister for Justice was addressing Ireland's first official Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration at Dublin City Hall. The attendance included survivors of the Nazi concentration camps who grew up in Ireland... ...[a Jew] told the Irish Independent last night it was a hurtful memory for Jewish people that the Irish authorities refused to accept Jewish child refugees during the war. This contrasted with the decision after the war to bring large numbers of non-Jewish German children to Ireland.****
Irish governments had, in wiser days, a not too secret policy favouring Aryan immigration only.
Elsewhere in the paper is some moderately good news: [url=http://www.unison.ie/irish_independent/stories.php3?ca=9&si=906894&issue_id=8660]Asylum decision closes constitutional loophole[/url] And quite shockingly [url=http://www.unison.ie/irish_independent/stories.php3?ca=9&si=907898&issue_id=8669]Blair warns of about-turn on immigration[/url]
BRITAIN may have to pull out of the European convention on human rights if the government's latest measures fail to stem the flow of asylum-seekers, Tony Blair indicated yesterday.
I can't imagine chipmunk boy having the guts, but hope springs eternal.

Ireland's Holocaust memorial day? What's next, Papua New Guinea expresses its sorrow for its role in the Shoah? Goldhagen et al must be pleased; the Holocaust is well on its way in changing from something some Gentiles did to some Jews to something all Gentiles did to all Jews.

There's no business like Shoah business!

To my knowledge Ireland has no Famine memorial day (that would be ghoulish anyway), yet now it has a Holocaust memorial day. It is a fine indication of how far the Holocaust has come in its role as centerpiece of the NWO religion.

I see a new Irish Spring commercial here. Virile/attractive Irish couple ride in buckboard wagon.
HE [holds up bar of Irish Spring]: Irish Spring: made from a man.
SHE : Aye; but strong enough f'ra woman!

I had to look up what 'Irish Spring' was via Yahoo and came across this bizarre, but quaint, page reviewing the soap:
[url=http://www.goddijn.com/soap/sirish.htm]http://www.goddijn.com/soap/sirish.htm[/url]
Excerpt -
"The soap's odor is really great. It combines the clean odor of soap with the sharp, crisp odor of a good aftershave. Now, I don't use aftershave, as I shave with an electric razor and most aftershaves burn like a motherfucker (which is also why I don't use Listerine mouthwash), but I love the smell of it. Irish Spring smells like aftershave, but is as gentle on your skin as soap, so it's really the best of both worlds. The odor is probably what makes Irish Spring one of the more rugged, manly soaps out there today. I understand that the reknowned musician and wrestling manager Zoogz Rift finds the odor much too strong, but he doesn't shave, which may explain his feelings. My bar of Irish Spring does have a pronounced flash, but contrary to certain rumor-mongers, this will not cut you, and feels somewhat sensual when rubbed against bare skin."
Good God, you really can find anything on the 'net!

What business did Ireland have in helping Jews out? Did they refuse to help out the Japs when America dropped the nukes on them?
Did they help the Germans when America fire-bombed the hell outta their cities, killing innocent people?
Neutrality is a good idea. After all, MExico announced a neutral stance after 9-11. Didn't want to get involved.
