The whole statement is great btw.
Ireland remains one of the only good white country. Any others you can think of?

Ireland is tangible proof that although all the EU countries have incentive to side with genocide aka US/IS their people and their leaders CHOOSE to side with genocide in the end. They could just as easily choose not. Maybe that decision would come with some economic harm... but that's better than having the stain of another genocide on your hands.
It's also basically downplayed and goes underreported what Ireland has said and done in the past 4-5 months. When people hear/see, you know, white Europeans speaking fucking common sense and roasting all their neighbors and allies for their support of Israel, I rarely if ever hear anyone levy the accusation of antisemitism against Ireland. I'm sure it absolutely happens, but it's like people broadly see a white country that was historically heavily oppressed, colonized and genocided themselves and only won their current freedom and independence via violent, bloody, uncompromising resistance. Everyone sees what Ireland went through and what they did not that long ago (IRA dudes are still very much alive) and they go "oh yeah. I get that. I understand why they think that way." Well if you fucking understand why the IRA tried to kill high British politicians and why they waged brutal guerrilla warfare against the British, including civilians, for decades then you should also understand why Palestinians will never stop their resistance until they win their freedom or they're wiped from this planet. Because in the end, what other choice do they have?
Spain, too.
