I know of the first part. Even with WWII many americans were more 
favorable to the Germans, given that Britton was a big giant empire 
at the time. (They did not, so I am told by friends who were alive 
then, know of the impending genocide)

But I have never heard much on Irland in the world wars. Of course 
you are refering to individual's opionions and not governemnt policy, 
but still, could you elaborate?
