This works (watch the line wraps):
set listdir1 to do shell script "ls ~/Library" as string
if "Application Support" is not in listdir1 then
do shell script "mkdir ~/Library/'Application Support'" as string
end if
set listdir2 to do shell script "ls ~/Library/'Application Support'" as string
if "My Folder" is not in listdir2 then
do shell script "mkdir ~/Library/'Application Support'/MyFolder" as string
end if
