    This doesn't appear to be a feud at all like the media claim.

    Seems more like individuals and groups who are all connected to each other via the drug trade taking each other out for various different reasons.

    I've no idea why Parker or Lee Boylan were shot and it doesn't seem like many do. Little was likely killed over a drug bust and Sanambar in retaliation for that. JD might of been killed over a drug debt that he wasn't willing to pay or because someone just wanted him gone and Eoin Boylan might have been taken out over things he said online about Little or because of a connection to the Drogheda Feud.

    So it doesn't look like two sides going at it.

    A bit of an off topic question. Any other countries in Western Europe similar to Ireland where gangland shootings resulting in killing are fairly common ?
    How do we compare - are we best in class ?

    11th lowest murder rate in Europe

    “Irish rate broadly in line with that expected of a country with its level of economic development”

    8 for a year in Dublin by my count, it's not really that bad.

    Capital will usually have the highest, its where the main trade is.

    Bit of context would be nice.

    What relevance does it have to this thread? Why are you repeatedly posting pictures of travellers on various threads and asking who they are, even when you have already been told who they are?

    Any opinions on irish independents article about Eoin Boylan, that he was spotted in a car with Hamid Sanambar and that all seen in car are on a hit list ? Seems a bit hollywood and far fetched for me.

    More plausible that he pissed the wrong people off and they got him.

    Its not far fetched if they were all spotted in the car the night sean was murdered.

    I believe they were spotted a day or two before the Iranian was shot ( a week or so after Seans shooting)

    "GLOBAL MOBSTERS Kinahan Cartel one of biggest drug gangs in €30billion EU drug trade, new report reveals

    THE Kinahan Cartel is one of the biggest drugs gangs in the world, a new report has suggested.

    The Irish mobsters are name checked in the study — compiled by the EU drugs agency and Europol (EMCDDA) — which shows Europeans are spending €30billion a year on drugs."


    You don't get that big without paying off high up people.

    If there's one thing I've learned, it's that nobody in that game makes into retirement.

    They're gonna get taken down soon enough I'd say. Someone will testify against them sooner or later.

    That’s not true. Loads of nameless mr Bigs do. What about the pimpernel - Mickey Greene.

    I worded my post a bit arse ways. I meant lads at the level they've apparently gotten to. Their names and faces are all over the papers and the internet.
    Won't be long now.

    Edit
    I remember reading about him years ago, didn't he kill a taxi driver by ploughing his Bentley into him while he was out of it along the quays?

    Yeah thats true for sure, but surely the Kinahan cartel and anyone belonging to them has gone beyond that now though. They are marked men throughout the world.

    I thought the word at the time was that flashy had Parker whacked?? Were all these lads killed associated with the Gucci gang at some time or other?
