  • Codename: Steak Knife - The Spy in the IRA - Northern Ireland Troubles
    While working for the top-secret Force Research Unit (FRU) of the British Army Reports claim that Stakeknife worked for British intelligence for 25 years. Stakeknife has been accused of being a double agent who oversaw the murders of informers within the paramilitary organisation while working for the British. British officials launched Operation Kenova to investigate these claims of state involvement in the kidnap, torture and murder of more than 50 individuals, leading to the arrest of Freddie Scappaticci in January 2018 on accusations that he was Stakeknife-a claim which Scappaticci denied.

      The guy is straight out of the world of John Le Carré - when I first heard about him last summer (in a 2023 BBC documentary that's also on this channel) the parallel with the murky world of Karla and Smiley struck me immediately.

    I really miss Anthony Mc Intyre's excellent, well-informed publication called "The Blanket". The articles in "The Blanket" were interesting and diverse, and provided a wonderful insight into the Northern Ireland political landscape as the The Troubles as we knew them drew to a close.

    In January 2018, Scappaticci was arrested by police regarding offenses including murder and abduction, but was released on bail. On 5 December 2018, Westminster Magistrates' Court sentenced Scappaticci to 3 months imprisonment, suspended for 1 year, after he pleaded guilty to possessing "extreme pornographic images", including those which featured animals. The pornographic materials were uncovered during an investigation into serious crime during the Troubles.

      Its a good steady wage for doing fck all if MI5/army intelligence are involved. If hes a bricklayer, he could basically double his wage every year or more with no extra work. Thats enough for some.

    It’s the truth hidden in plain sight.
    McGuinness & Adams claimed to be waging a war on the British, yet lived openly within British jurisdiction. McGuinness never spent a night in a British cell. Both became celebrities favoured by British royalty with McGuinness ending his days as a British minister.
