Ireland isn't questioning Apple. The US government were IIRC. The Irish political establishment & electorate just care about jobs.
There's an election in Ireland in a few months. After the property bubble burst, and the economy tanked, the parties currently in government love to claim any good signs for the economy. 1,000 jobs! Do you know how many votes that'll be? Who cares about taxes, the people want jobs.
