Our man in Berlin who went native as a Nazi
Jews hoping to flee Germany to Ireland in the 1930s faced an almost insurmountable obstacle. Charles Bewley, Ireland's envoy to Berlin from 1933 to 1939, was an unashamed supporter of Nazi rule, and did not conceal his anti-Semitic views. He made strenuous efforts to stop Jews getting into Ireland.m.independent.ie
Born a quaker from Anglo Irish roots and educated in England.
He's about as Irish as Wellington m8.
Espoused the nationalist cause late on in life failed multiple times to be elected. Jumped on the Free State side in the civil war. Got up the nose of the British monarchy which went down well in Ireland so got a job as an Anglo Irish diplomat. Became a bit of an embrassment to the Free state when relations with England improved.
Was shipped off to Germany as an ambassador which since he was a closet anti semite and nazi was just what he wanted. Did pro nazi and anti semite things while over there.
None of which makes Ireland a particularly anti semite country. Stick to the Benny ass licking m8.
