"If these figures are correct, or anywhere near it, O'Reilly stands to
make a personal profit of €1.4 billion without adding any value whatsoever to
the licence he obtained (for the princely sum of €11,000 two years
ago)."
"So how did Mr O’Reilly get such a lucrative hold over the
country’s oil and gas wealth? He told
Forbes magazine, in an unusually
unguarded interview, in September 1983, that his geologist had chosen six blocks
of seabed for exploration."
“Since I own 35 per cent of
the newspapers in Ireland I have close contact with the politicians. I got the
blocks he wanted.” That’s how.
"As is the fact that a spokesperson
for the Taoiseach (Prime Minister Ahern TD) recently told a prominent Dublin
journalist that he was 'terrified' of O’Reilly’s other newspaper, the Sunday
Independent."

Government established by this Constitution and all royalties and franchises

interests therein for the time being lawfully vested in any person or

"What a
nasty little country"by W. Finnerty. Sat Oct 14, 2006
13:53 The main text of an e-mail sent earlier
today (by me) to a number of individuals and groups relating to the matter of
"media supported corruption", as I see it, has been reproduced
below.
The full text, and the full list of addressees,
together with what I understand was the text of the article which appeared in
yesterday's
Irish Times, can be viewed at the following
location:
http://www.europeancourtofhumanrightswilliamfinnerty.com/Groups/14October2006/Email.htm For
future reference purposes, Yahoo e-mail message identification and tracking
information has been included at the above address.
The main text
of the e-mail in question is as follows:
"What have The
Irish Times done to help? What sort of people are
they? Why have the Irish Times repeatedly and
consistently buried their heads in the sand regarding the MAJOR human rights and
environmental issues which lay at the root of many (possibly all?) of the
extremely serious social problems which have by now so well established
themselves in Irish society: the same set of problems The Irish Times was
yesterday self-indulgently "wondering aloud" about in public
apparently?
Why, for example, have the Irish Times more or
less completely ignored - year after year - the kind of amazing and deeply
serious Republic of Ireland Constitutional issues relating to the United Nations
Aarhus Convention Agreement Ireland signed in 1998, and raised in e-mails to
them such as that at the following address?
http://www.constitutionofireland.com/EddieHoltIrishTimesJournalist17January2006/Email.htm Though
they do not appear to realise it, or are slyly pretending not to realise it, The
Irish Times and its disastrous and extremely shoddy habit of "cherry-picking"
with regard to reality (i.e. "what is"), has greatly helped the overall "nasty
little country" problem to develop, and to grow to the point where its monstrous
and stinking-rotten wings have now spread all over (and under) the place - has
it not?
Similarly for all the other traditional
"Media-Baron / Bilderberg" driven sources of public information - including the
state broadcasters?
You can tell the type of tree from the
fruit it produces - can you not?" Related link:

Might the legal profession be able to help with
the above problems? It seems not, as there appears to be major
problems with corruption in the Republic of Ireland's legal system as well
- very similar it is thought to those briefly outlined by lawyer Teddy Moore in
the video interview at the following address:
http://www.cinemazo.com/TheFixer.wmv
In fact, it
seems to be the case that the legal profession is the very cleverly hidden
and insidious "keystone" which is powerfully supporting the whole weight of
all the corruption (and bullying) that is taking place in the Republic of
Ireland at the present time.
