Republicans remember their dead in the face of attacks by PSNI controled criminals This week marks the twentieth anniversery of a man murdered to protect a high ranking British agent within the Provisional IRA. It also sees the seventh anniversery of his grandson who himself was murdered only yards away. On the morning of October 9th 1987 twice interned IRA vetren, and retired black taxi driver Francisco Notarantonio was murdered in his bed by a UFF hit squad who had ventured well into the heart of the staunchly republican Ballymurphy estate.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3hard to believe my freind and comrade joe was brutally murdered seven years ago today .
Harder still to accept the vultures still circle his grave .
Never forgotten .
Joe O'Connor was murdered by members of his own organisation. He was shot over a dispute over weapons. This has all been put into the public eye by Joe's own wife. Of course the standard deflection campaign of the dissidents clicks in and its all the Provo's fault, but nobody believes this crap except for a few blind dissidents. Joe O'Connor a member of the RIRA shot by his own.
And as for this crap
"By 2003 this theory was proved to be correct with agent 'Steaknife' fleeing to Italy leaving PIRA supporters reluctantly accepting they had been duped." Total horsehit, it is well known that republican sources claim that the media reports are carefully planted misinformation designed to further raise tensions in an effort to foment republican feuding. But once again the dissidents are nothing more than fantasists.
Remember how the PIRA were supposedly responsible for the murder of Gareth O Connor too only for that to be shown as bull. That too was the RIRA who whacked him.
