What Has Israel Ever Done to Us in Ireland?
(Independent-Ireland) Carol Hunt - Fine Gael chairman Charlie Flanagan told me, "Israel has been demonized by an Irish media slavishly dancing to the Palestinian drumbeat for decades, [yet] Israel has a far better and more progressive record on human rights than any of its neighbors." He added: "The truth must be told." Disturbingly, the truth is that a study conducted in May 2011 revealed that, of those Irish citizens questioned, over 1/5 would deny citizenship to Israelis, with 11.5% stating they would deny Irish citizenship to all Jews, and less than 60% saying they would accept a Jewish person into their family. Bloody hell - what did the Jews ever do to us?
