Ireland would withdraw their forces from the region, maybe cut ties. Israel would lose a good amount of Western goodwill and nothing would happen. Even if Israel opens fire on Ireland's troops it won't lead to war. I don't think it's physically possible for either side to do anything more than bombing campaigns anyway.

Ireland is EU. The EU is very capable of projecting ground forces. Other than that, yeah I agree.
