Jim,

Israel is vital to this discussion because it is a widely-held opinion that the accusations of Antisemitism originated from her attempts to block the Boycott of her goods.

No it is not.
That is just a deranged conspiracy theory.
The accusations of antisemitism all came from respected Labour members, not from Mossad secret agents!

Rag,
"The Irish Republicans had no influence on the Irish people"
Classic, absolutely bloody classic.

What do you challenge in that statement?
The FACT is that IRA supported Nazism and hoped for a Nazi victory, but Irish people did not.
Just twenty years after the supposed depredations of the Tans, they flocked in their tens of thousands to fight for Britain.
Those Republicans demonstrably had no influence on the people. Almost none chose to fight for Hitler.

The professor said republicans, not the IRA. The republicans were many and varied and even he should know that.

Silly. The discussion arose from the History Ireland article about IRA support for Nazism and "cleansing" Europe of Jews. The context was clear to evryone except you apparently.
