Still, I don't see a direct parallel in the comparison of being of Irish decent to get into Ireland, and having a certain religion to gain entrance to Isreal. Seems like comparing apples, and oranges.
Well Judaism is unique in the fact that its treated as a race and has been targeted for extermination many times throughout history. Throughout history the Jews, practicing, non-practicing or only having a parent being Jewish were still targeted for persecution and extermination. Therefore it can be directly compared to the Irish as a nationality!
