Bait-and-Switch headline.

The Northern Irish aren't "the Irish."

Plenty of Northern Irish fought against Hitler.

"The Irish" would rather have seen Hitler exterminate the Jews than put aside their differences with the English and join in the war against Hitlerism.

"The Irish" would rather have seen Hitler exterminate the Jews than put aside their differences with the English and join in the war against Hitlerism.

Which is just about the same as asking the Jews to team up with the Germans to fight against the USSR.

"The Irish" would rather have seen Hitler exterminate the Jews than put aside their differences with the English and join in the war against Hitlerism.
