4000 or 500000 doesn't matter, 1 is 1 too many

Ok. And what we can do with this information today? Specially on an escort advert website?

Yes I think WW2 and the Holocaust might be debated somewhere else to be fair. I'm interested in my history though, but still I mean as long ago as it was people now still have relatives involved in that horror.

I think it is wrong to forget the mistakes of history, otherwise we as a race will never learn by those mistakes. There is a tendency to only permit vanilla history and remove anything that offends these days. The reality is that too many people are getting offended on others behalf. Every nation has their dark secrets that they would rather forget and the Irish are no different. Its healthy to remind ourselves once in a while. If we look at what is happing in Ukraine it has all the similarities of how Hitler's Germany annexed Austria and the Sudetenland before WWII.

true but doesn't it make you wonder how the nazi's got information about 4000 Jews in a neutral country and make you think that they planned to invade Ireland at some stage smells very much like collusion.

Nazi Germany did plan to invade Ireland : Operation Green

Information was gathered by German civilians living in Ireland at the time.

[Rockerman]

Well they never got the chance in the end thankfully. They did invade Russia though and that is what fucked them in the end. They lost the war because of that mistake.

Without the Blueshirts, there would have been no Fine Gael

Claiming continuity with Michael Collins helps Fine Gael forget its troubling origins

But they stood up against communism.

The worst blight to ever befall humanity.

The ovens used in the camps of East Germany and Poland point to a darker blight I'm afraid. And one that the blueshirts stood shoulder to should with along with General Franco and Mussolini. Sure was some beginnings for FG.. wonder has Varadkar any portraits of dictators hanging in his quarters
