Anger over Irish gangland deaths
INLA Leader Dessie O'Hare, "The Border Fox" left, is the man who holds the key to the Stolen Vermeer being recovered. His access to the Irish Global Criminal Underworld gives him the edge and ability to convince all parties that it is time to allow the Vermeer to surface, via a confessional box.
Currently, Dessie O'Hare resides in South Armagh, not far from General Thomas Slab Murphy, (above right).
Together, these two giants of the Irish Republican movement have the ability to convince dissident Irish Republicans to call a ceasefire, and for our purposes, facilitate the Vermeer being discovered in a confession box.
Payment to the current handler of the Vermeer will be made by General Thomas Slab Murphy, via Dessie O'Hare, the Vermeer will surface, General Thomas Slab Murphy gets his $20 million tax demand reduced/written off and is allowed to retire gracefully, good old Malachy McAllister
gets political asylum in America, the Irish Govt gets an amount of Green cards for Irish illegals living in the U.S.Sinn Fein have already been given fundraising rights in America as a sign of goodwill, Dessie O'Hare has been released from jail, the rest of the plan is coming together.
From a moral standpoint, the benefits of this deal is no reward is paid by the Isabella Stewart Museum to those involved in the theft or subsequent handling, ending this sorry saga once and for all.
In the Meantime, Back to Irish Underworld Gang Warfare
Five violent killings in six days in the Irish Republic have piled pressure on the Irish government to take action.In the latest incident, Gerard Byrne, 25, was shot dead near the city's financial district at about 2100 GMT on Wednesday. He was well-known to police.
Tanaiste Michael McDowell said that a lack of policing resources was not to blame and "all the arms of democracy" were needed to combat violent crime.
Opposition parties want Mr McDowell, who is minister for justice, to resign.
Politicians are calling for a similar response to that which followed the wave of revulsion over the 1996 murder of journalist Veronica Guerin.
Jim O'Keeffe of the opposition Fine Gael party said that law and order had broken down and Ireland was in a virtual state of national emergency.
Violent deaths
The upsurge in violent deaths has seen four other people killed in the last six days.
Last Friday, postmaster Alan Cunniffe was shot dead in Kilkenny, while on Tuesday evening, Dundalk man Aidan Myers was killed outside the town as an armed gang went on a cross-border crime rampage.
Earlier on the same day, Martin 'Marlo' Hyland, 39, believed to be a major drug dealer, was shot dead, along with Anthony Campbell, an apprentice plumber.
The innocent 20-year old happened to be working in the house in Finglas, County Dublin, where Hyland was staying, and is believed to have been shot once after answering the door to the killers.
In parliament on Wednesday, Taoiseach Bertie Ahern was forced to defend efforts being made to combat organised crime.
Mr Ahern said that the success of the Gardai's Operation Oak - which aimed to stop Hyland's criminal activities - was the reason he was killed by gunmen who were believed to be former associates.
'There is no doubt that as a result of Garda operations, the net was tightening around Martin Hyland and he was losing grip of his criminal activities.
"Many of his associates have been arrested - 43 of them - and 24 have already been charged with serious offences.
'The gardai gave me the figures from Oak. They have seized 30kg of heroin, 35kg of cocaine, 1,500kg of cannabis, stolen vehicles, handguns, AK47s, sawn-off shotguns, rifles, ammunition, cash.''
Hyland, who was one of the country's biggest drug dealers, was hit six times in the head and body as he slept in an upstairs bedroom in a relative's house.
Although Hyland was allegedly linked to the IRA, Mr Ahern told the Dail: "I've seen nothing that may suggest that the Provisional IRA was involved."
And rumours that the double murder was carried out by convicted INLA killer Dessie O'Hare, known as the Border Fox,( picture top) were denied by his spokesman.
"From a garda point of view, it will be too early to say exactly who done it, but Dessie O'Hare is absolutely not in any way connected to any type of gangland killings," he said on RTE radio.
"He's been working with the Brothers of Charity in the west of Ireland, he's working with the handicapped, he's been to Lourdes.''
Mr McGarrigle said that under the terms of O'Hare's extended temporary release from prison, where he served a lengthy sentence for kidnapping a Dublin dentist and cutting off parts of his captive's fingers, he will be returned immediately to prison if seen in the company of subversives.
Implicated
In the latest killing, Gerard Byrne, was shot up to five times in the head outside a shop in the IFSC area, not far from Connolly Station.
The shooting happened at about 2100 GMT on Wednesday.
He had been implicated in a hand grenade attack on a property in north Dublin.
He was arrested a few months ago in Raheny on Dublin's northside when, Gardai believe, he was on his way to commit a murder.
Gardai also believe the killing may be linked to a long-running feud between two north-inner city Dublin families.
Gerard Byrne is known to have taken the side of a woman whom, it is claimed, was raped by a leading underworld figure.
Art Hostage comments:
It is from this world that the Gardner Art will be retrieved.
Dessie O'Hare has been in Limerick lately for discussion's on a number of subjects, not least the return of high value stolen art.
The recent arrests of several Godfathers, Fat Fred Thompson, Anthony Kelly etc means there is somewhat of a sea-change going on with regards leadership of the Irish criminal underworld.
When new Godfathers emerge, Dessie, etc, a new pragmatism will allow the Gardner art to surface.
As to what has been recovered, I await the go-ahead to reveal details.
To be continued.......
