Why is a Balkan haplogroup found in Western Ireland? Notice that it is not found in any other part of the country. Could this be from the Milesians?

It is the other way around. British "I2" clade is older than the Balkan Dinaric one and everything shows it is native to area. There was some writing about this recently. The ancestors of Dinaric I2 people long long time ago left British Isles and went eastwards where they probably fused with R1a Slavic speakers and as Slavs went to Balkans during Slavic expansion.

No way. I2 is ancient to the Balkans and did not come there from the Slavs.

All you guys should check this thread out Y DNA I found in Mesolithic Sweden(-I1) and Luxemburg, alot of other good stuff, (http://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2228551#post2228551) There are non east European subclades of I2a1b, also ~8,000 year old I2a1b samples found in Sweden and Luxemburg, but no big deal.
