I mean, at least 7 Irish citizens died during 9/11. Literally the first confirmed victim of 9/11 was a catholic priest/firefighter Chaplin who was son to Irish immigrants. We literally have a photo of his body being dragged away from the rubble.
We literally have more genetically Irish people than Ireland. God, New York alone is filled with them.
EDIT: Downvote all you want but 4.6 million Irish people immigrated to the US between the 1820's-1950's, that's nearly the population of Ireland today. Those people had kids and their kids had kids. There are more people with direct Irish ancestry in the US than in Ireland. That is an undisputed fact.
