In this video, I look at what Ireland did during World War II. I look at Irish reasons for remaining neutral, tensions between Ireland and the Allies, the state of the Irish military, and the controversies surrounding Irish neutrality.

I think the Irish did the right thing: staying out.

Imagine what kind of idiotic suicide missions they would have been forced to go on by British commanders. Not saying that the british did that much in ww2, but with a few hundred thousand irish troops to play with they might have.
