Ireland has become one of the most anti-Semitic nations in the world. Part of it is the IRAs connection with the PLO, and shared terror training camps, but former president Mary Robinson, a virulent Jew-hater, has also something to do with it.
A large part is the rise of the EU in power and Ireland’s ever-growing subservience to it. The country never used to be that way. My late father could be openly Jewish while living and working there; these days he most likely could not.
