AHC: Get Ireland and Spain involved directly in WW2

Getting the coup you just have to find some people who hate the British and love money. If the coup goes halfway through with members of the government, public servants , reporters and clergy getting arrested and some killed throw in a few riots with civilian deaths and have the coup plotters get taken alive and someone talks to save his skin.
Germany will be dealing with a few million pissed off Irishmen.

You do get how utterly shattered the "IRA" of the time was by this stage (and compromised), what you are suggesting is not nearly as easy as you seem to think in the first place.

That's the point, the Germans try to reassemble the IRA and it falls apart mid-coup.

If you are talking about post September '39, it's not happening, German Intelligence/IRA contacts throughout the war were awful. They aren't going to be able to get a group together supplied and convinced to carry out some sort of attack of this scale at that point. It's just not going to happen that way. There's no way even if they did get a group together that they would be able to out muster the DF/Gardaí forces at that point.

We're talking about getting Ireland into world war 2 , that's pretty ASB. I'm trying to keep it as semi realistic as possible.
