Dublin's cocaine problem and the Kinahans

OK so seemingly cocaine is a big problem in Dublin now as well as Belfast. In Belfast the Loyalist paramilitaries are shooting each other over the drug trade now. This article from 2022 talks about a Loyalist from East Belfast named Colin Joseph Garrett who brought two kilos of cocaine from Dublin with his co-accused, taxi driver David John Ghent from Hollyfields in Dungannon. Previous courts have been told police believe Garrett is a wholesale drugs distributor for the UVF in east Belfast, while Ghent is alleged to have links to organized crime gangs in Dublin and had brought the cocaine over the border.

So who's in charge of the cocaine in Dublin? Is it the Kinahan crime group? I don't know. In 2012 Irish Central reported that "Dessie O'Hare, the republican paramilitary who was once the most wanted man in Ireland, delivered a glowing tribute to the slain crime godfather Eamon Kelly at his funeral in Dublin this week. According to the Irish Independent, dozens of figures from the Irish criminal underworld turned out to pay their respects to the 65-year-old convicted cocaine smuggler who was shot dead by the dissident group the Real IRA last week. Kelly is believed to have been shot dead by dissidents in retaliation for the murder of Real IRA faction leader Alan Ryan last September."

I remember hearing about the Real IRA dissidents in Dublin fighting with the IRA over drugs. One group claimed to be fighting against drugs while the other group was accused of selling drugs. Yet some claimed they both sold drugs and were shooting each other simply because they were rivals in the drug trade. I don't know. It's a bit complected so it is. This podcast I feel is credible:

Google AI is reporting that "In the late 1990s, Christy Kinahan Snr was imprisoned in Ireland's high-security Portlaoise Prison alongside members of the Provisional IRA and the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA). Reports indicate he avoided the IRA, who historically targeted drug dealers."

Those are names I'm familiar with. "The relationship turned into open warfare after the 2016 attack on a Kinahan weigh-in event in Dublin, carried out by the Hutch gang (rivals) in collaboration with republican paramilitaries."

"In retaliation for the Regency attack, the Kinahan cartel targeted members of the Real IRA (New IRA) in 2016, specifically murdering Michael 'Mickey' Barr in Dublin, believing he was involved in sourcing weapons for the attack."

So if the IRA and the INLA have started drug trafficking as well as the Real IRA dissidents, then that's a big change from the /80s making it one great big mess. My point is, looks like I was wrong. Looks like the Kinahan crime group is real. They and the Hutch group seemingly both have ties to paramilitaries. I just needed to confirm it through reliable sources not the mainstream media. There is however, something shady about some of the allegations about the Kinahans coming from the Intelligence community which isn't surprising. 

I am still forced to come to the conclusion that if the Hutch group are still in Dublin and the Kinahan group were forced to flee Dublin, then the Hutch group are the bigger drug trafficking network. The fact that the Hutch group is supported by the UVF in the North would completely confirm that. As would the fact that they are supported by the Real IRA dissident group.

That would mean MI5 is going after their rivals who left the life and started legitimate businesses outside of Ireland. Which would also mean, convicting the Kinahans for past crimes will do absolutely nothing to stop or reduce the current cocaine problem in Dublin and Belfast or across Europe which is run by MI5 just like Medellin is along with Mossad. It's the same pattern. Bust a smaller rival so your larger network can thrive.  

MI5 created the Real IRA dissident group just like Mossad created Hamas and the CIA created ISIS as well as ISIS K.

Connecting the Kinahans to Hezbollah is ridiculous. Hezbollah is not like Hamas or ISIS. Hezbollah is defending Lebanon from an Israeli invasion. The Kinahans invested in a cargo ship that was transporting oil from Iran to Syria before the CIA coup in Syria. That was their crime. They were investing in legitimate business enterprises that conflicted with the Saudi monopoly. 

Here's a question for you. Google AI admits that "In the late 1990s when Christy Kinahan was in Portlaoise along with PROVOs and INLA, he avoided the IRA, who historically targeted drug dealers." If the Kinahans were affiliated with the Provisional IRA and the INLA who opposed drugs, were they killing Hutch associates because they were rival drug dealers or because they were drug dealers?

The recent charges are for murder not drug trafficking. In one podcast going over some of the recent evidence, they claimed that Kinahan associates were having a conversation over encrypted blackberries using the signal messenger app. Where have we heard that before. The FBI didn't hack that ap, they ran it. It was a honeypot they controlled.

So the question is, did the FBI monitor messages between Kinahan associates on the encrypted messaging AP the FBI created or did they make up messages like in the Charlie Kirk murder trial. Remember the buzzwords like vehicle. A term a cop would use not a civilian kid. 

In one conversation the two Kinahan associates were discussing murdering a specific Hutch target and the person was killed the next day. The podcast said that shows you how fast they were able to execute a hit after merely discussing it but does it really. They were seemingly unsure of a target and were discussing possible different targets. They mention one and the next day the guy was killed. Was it them or were they set up?

In Vancouver Damion Ryan killed Gary Kang and then he killed Anees Mohamed right after that to make it look like Mo was killed by a rival when it was really him on both counts. 

Anees Mohamed's murder was too fast for a professional retaliation hit in the same way the Signal messages between Kinahan associates were. Then there was that other message where two Irish guys were using the term mate. I've heard British or Australian guys use that term all the time not Irish. 

So once again, if the Hutch crime group is tied to the dissident group that calls itself the Real IRA, which was started by MI5, and if the Hutch crime group are also affiliated with the UVF and the Loyalist Paramilitaries selling drugs in East Belfast, then they are by far the largest drug trafficking network and this highly publicized Kinahan bust is a distraction for the real drug trafficking network MI5 run. Just say'n.

"In addition to Stakeknife, the Kenova team also ran Operation Denton, which reviewed the so-called Glennane Gang, a loyalist network linked to about 120 murders."
