Wonder what Irish Zionist's take is on this issue. I know he has told me there are many Irish who support Israel . I have met a lot of Jew haters from Ireland. However, I have also met many Irish who seem to support Israel and form some kind of bond with Jewish people, at least here in the USA. Mainly the Protestants.. The Catholics in Ireland, like Catholics in many places, generally, have a bit of disdain for Jews. Of course, I am not saying Catholics as a whole hate Jews,as there are some Catholic nations and people that are supportive of Israel. However, Ireland is a bit more old-school with its practice of Catholicism than other European countries.
