You are convinced of what? Are you still trying to deny that shell had a group of right wing paramilitaries working for them in Rossport? Thats widely established fact ma fren.

Head in the sand.

the irish guy was the only one confirmed working there i think, how in any way shape or form is that "widely established fact"? and back to my original point, what has all that got to do with o'donnell sinking his boat at the same time as s2s boarding the dredgers?
 
No Tibor Revesz has been very much confirmed as working there. He was a team leader, there are pictures of him down there. His groups website sells merch gloating over their presence there. Google Szeckler Legion.

Like I said, this has been all over newspapers and magazines for the last month. Do you, like, go outside?

Here you go, from the times;

On his website Revesz asked for donations to help to repatriate the body of Magyarosi Arpak, the third man killed in the police raid. He said the cost of this could come to €15,000. He also said that money is needed to pay for Toazo’s legal costs.
His CV, which is posted online said that he was a former member of the Hungarian army and also worked as a bodyguard and a series of other security jobs before working for IRMS.
 
what has all that got to do with o'donnell sinking his boat at the same time as s2s boarding the dredgers?

It establishes that there is a far-right paramilitary gang inside shell security down there, which opens up all sorts of possibilities really.

But mostly, it just shows you are talking out of your ass and refusing to believe even the most widely reported facts about shell in mayo.

A bit more maybe?
POLICE IN Bolivia want to interview three men living in Ireland about their movements in Bolivia with Michael Dwyer, the Irishman shot by police in a Santa Cruz hotel because he was part of an alleged terrorist cell.
The three men being sought for interview by the Bolivian authorities are foreign nationals who worked with Mr Dwyer in Ireland.
The men – two Hungarians and a Slovak – travelled to Bolivia with Mr Dwyer last November. One of the men is still working in the same security company in Ireland where he and Mr Dwyer met. The other two men worked for the same firm until recently and are still living in Ireland.

okay fair enough, guardian must have been wrong then. you can't blame me for not being convinced about the boat tho. do you honestly think it was coincidence that the dredger incident and the boat incident happened at the same time?

Well from a tactical point of view do you think Shell To Sea said right lets do an action against the dredger, oh and at the same time ODonnell you go out there and sink your boat - we will say shell did it?

What if, as an example, the szeckler mentals (who specialise in maritime security and have scuba training) decided to use the cover of the 4am s2s action to attack ODonnell?

I dont see any sane person setting out to sink their own boat and thinking that somehow people will believe that ninjas did it, especially when the media completely ignored a ninja attack on Corduff a month ago.

The boat was preventing shell from continuing with their dredging, it would only benefit shell to sink it. No?

wouldn't negative press like that be the last thing shell needs, especially after the recent nigeria business?
 
I would doubt that Shell approved the action. More likely an out of control group of security guys, to me thats the only explanation. I dont think S2S have enough faith in the media to stage something like this and I dont think Shell would get their hands dirty enough to officially sanction anything like this in secret. More a case of letting the boys do what they must.
 
It establishes that there is a far-right paramilitary gang inside shell security down there, which opens up all sorts of possibilities really.

It's private security, of course it's full of far right nutjobs. Every nightclub in the country has a handful of far right nutjobs on the door all weekend.

There's a lot of pipe to be laid though between saying there are unsavoury types working in private security to claiming shell sank the boat.

Well, lets be straight about it, there are unsavoury types and then there are international mercenaries affiliated to a hungarian neo nazi paramilitary gang.

It establishes that there is a force in the area capable of acting well outside the law. They travelled back and forth between corrib and santa cruz setting up their militia there.

Also, saying they work for the security company not shell is just pedantry. They are working on the corrib project, it doesnt matter who their contract was signed with. They work to protect Shell.

That's not even your original point, this is- "yes i know its true, but one nob that used to work there doesn't prove anything about this case."

You're all over the place, do you honestly believe yer man sunk his own boat? It would be an act of exteme stupidity, to try to create a media event out of something like that, when most of the media is warping a lot of the information coming out of that area.... do you work for shell?
 
Yeah Froog, you can't possibly know what's going on untill you've sat around the campfire with the riot tourists!

yeah because there is riots up there the whole time:rolleyes:....maybe the locals that have been fighting this for years that have been battered by cops while peacefully protesting or that served time for simply defending their homes and families might be worth talking to??....oh sorry i forgot its all eco warriors and ra heads running the show up there sure it was in the papers.
and god forbid some one should come from outside to show solidarity ah sure its nothing to do with the rest of us...... its not like the profits from the gas would have benefited the whole country.
 
yes i know its true, but one nob that used to work there doesn't prove anything about this case.
the point was that just because the story sounds ridiculous doesn't mean it's not true.
lol, the plot thickens, the boat that picked them up was owned and operated by o' donnell and his son, gardai are unsure what the boat was doing in the area at the time.
fishing, maybe?

hardly a scoop, just hadn't heard it anywhere until today.
maybe you should read up a bit more before jumping in to heroically debunk a load of shit you don't know the details of. the very first account i read of the incident specified that they were rescued by the son's boat.

shell to sea never mentioned that it was his sons boat that picked him up?????is this true??
no.

wouldn't negative press like that be the last thing shell needs, especially after the recent nigeria business?
not when 'intelligent' people are clearly willing to believe any old guff except that big business could possibly be behaving badly.
