They hire out their expertise to criminal gangs and now the situation is at crisis point . With a valid device being deployed every three days someone is going to be killed real soon. Already a child in Wicklow last part of a hand to one of these explosives. The skill base comes from a particular quarter that must be obvious to you. We have had guns for hire and now its bombs for hire and some believe that it’s at a crisis point.

In fairness Mick, just do a google search and you can find out how to easily make improvised explosives.

People google how to make a bomb, 5 minutes later and after raiding their mother’s kitchen press, they have one made. People like Mick Collins are just stirring shide. Everything that you need to make these is in the average family home, however according to the bomb unit, most of them are made from fireworks powder, ie gun powder poured in to a pipe.

If experts were making these, they’d be more dead targets, that may sound harsh but it is true.

Request denied. I hereby speculate it was the Italians and they did it for a toblerone

Look at his girlfriend. How can you give him red thumbs even if he is wrong. ?

Last time I checked, Farranree was in Cork City.

Vincent, good luck with telling someone from Farranree they’re not from the City ;)

I just think the headline should state Farranree, in Cork City. its just a tad bit misleading as a headline. I’m sure they same wouldn’t be said about somewhere similar in Dublin. Just those people in Dublin report such stories as if Cork City is a small little island all on its own when we are truly a more suitable capital :)

Come of the stage! 2 minutes drive from the city centre……….. Not that misleading!!

local news reporting it as northside cork city.
