German soldiers who landed in Ireland accidentally during the war were held in a prison camp. Allied soldiers who landed in Ireland during the war were secretly sent back to England. 99,997 Irish men fought with foreign armies on the side of the allies during the war. Fire fighters from the republic of Ireland helped bombed areas of Northern Ireland during the war. British ships that were damaged in the war were often repaired in Irish ship yards. Rember that when people say Ireland was pro nazi

@MickBelcker but all the soldiers shouldn't be there, its not right, its done no good, and imthankfull that the U.S. helped the past irish, i think it was a remarkable show of generosity and good will. and why are you saying OYRISH? is tht meant to be taking the piss outta are accent, if you wanna do tht say ARE-LAN, thts how it was pronounced

[MickBelcker]

@moroney1 Thought you were finished with it Leper-chaun? Yeah, go spin your lies and make your excuses for helping the Nazis. I mock the people who died in the famine. YOU REMEMBER ONE THING YOU PIECE OF SHIT OYRISH!!! AMERICA TOOK IN YOUR STARVING PEOPLE, WHILE YOU OYRISH TURNED YOUR BACKS ON YOUR OWN NEIGHBORS, OR TURNED TO CANNIBALISM...You want to characterize all Americans by one person or all soldiers by the actions of a few - but cry when its done to you FUCK YOU OYRISH SCUM

[moroney1]

@MickBelcker :S you do realise that is crazy, you're extremely racist. How can you mock the famine, people were that desperate to survive, a million died, the whole nazi protection was only done by a few, it was done everywhere, neo nazism still continues world wide, girls were tortured by the minority, and why are you saying your. I didnt do it, a religous hierarchey did. The same hierarchy Mary challenged, I don't know why you are so racist, you take everything out of context!
