I started scratching my head about Irish anti-Semitism when I was on several blogs about Ireland and its anti-Americanism.

Antisemitism grows from the edges. Jews who own booze stores etc (some way from doctors and lawyers - sorry Mama) present a useful archetype for dispossessed leprechauns.
Mix in a little blood libel and you’re good to go.
Sadly, all of Europe is Moslem in a generation or two anyway so it’s just a distraction.
They’ll be BEGGING for Catholic Latinos by 2015,
And you’ll still need Jews like me to help you get through Joyce.
