Semtex explosive formerly belonging to the Provisional IRA was used in a terrorist attack on police officers in Northern Ireland at the weekend, marking a dangerous escalation in the capabilities of so-called ‘dissident’ republican groups intent on reigniting the province’s long and bloody conflict.
Two police officers narrowly escaped death or serious injury on Saturday night in the border town of Lisnaskea, Co Fermanagh, according to Paul Leighton, the Deputy Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI).
The most alarming element of the rocket attack was the detection of Semtex – an explosive imported into Ireland in vast quantities in the mid to late 1980s by the Provisionals as a gift from Colonel Muammar Gadaffi of Libya. Read It Here

Paddy and Mick are sitting having a glass of the brown stuff in bar in Belfast when Paddy turns to Mick and says, “Mick son I have been thinking” Mick says “Steady on there son” Paddy says no seriously I have had an idea! What Idea Mick asks? Well Paddy says we have been fighting these Brits for a long time we have had our successes and we have had our fuck ups, but whatever we lose men in this fight against these Brits don’t we? Sure we do replies Mick. So Paddy turns to Mick and says well instead of trying to blow these Brit bases up couldn’t we pretend to want peace and let the Brits blow them up for us, leave it a while then start the fight again in a much stronger position?
ReplyDeleteFucking brilliant replies Mick, what ya having Paddy it’s on me son?
