Irish dancing phenomenon Riverdance sparked a row in Ireland recently over its first-ever Israel tour this month.

 
Since learning of the group's planned performances in the Jewish state in early August, pro-Palestinian activists have been holding loud protests on Dublin's main street on a daily basis.

 
The demonstrators, affiliated with the Irish Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC), have been hold signs and chanted, "Don't dance for the Israeli apartheid state."

 
The dance company's set decorator refused to join the Israel tour, saying he supports the cultural boycott on Israel

It's good that only the one guy fell for the leftist crap about Israel.

Hopefully, they will fire the maggot for his hate.

The Irish I believe are the Israeli's best friends in Europe.

As much as I'd love that to be true it most certainly isn't. When Israel fought back against Hamas Nazi's in Gaza there was huge pro fakestine protests in Dublin, Ireland expelled the Israeli foreign minister for 3 months because a pro fakestine march to the Israeli embassy, the Irish flotilla and many more instances including a boycott.

Ireland is no friend of Israel I'm sorry to say.

When the Muzzies start taking over in Dublin they will change their minds!

As leftist as European governments are, I doubt that Israel has ANY friends in Europe, except perhaps the Serbs

This is the absolute truth.  Some of the most rabid Jew haters on YT are the Irish, with the exception of the Northern Irish
