THREE MEN HAVE been arrested after a high speed chase in a garda operation that saw two lanes of the M1 in Dublin closed.
The incident occurred at approximately 5.30pm this evening. Gardaí intercepted a car which they believe had been involved in criminal activity earlier in the day in Northern Ireland. It is understood that the men are connected to a number of burglaries.
Several garda cars were damaged during the incident which resulted in the M1 being closed southbound at the M50 junction for a number of hours to facilitate the investigation.
There was also a small fire in the car the three men were driving, which is believed to have been stolen, but emergency services were on the scene and it was put out quickly.
The men were arrested at the scene and are currently detained at Ballymun Garda Station under the provisions of Section 4- Criminal Justice Act 1984.
The M1 has now reopened fully.

How many of these were Israeli?
@Ananya Sharma: I was asking that myself
@Ananya Sharma: Russia forged 6 irish passports. Israel forged 3 irish passports. So who knows?
@Clifford Brennan: How many did the Russians kill with there ones ?
@Tony Moore: Who was killed by a passport?
@Clifford Brennan: A Palestinian leader by the Israelis carrying Irish Passports.

@Tony Moore: No not at all. I asked what you knew about him, not could you copy and paste. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and suggest you look into his cofounding of the Al Qassam brigade, their suicide bombing attacks, his central role in coordinating smuggling of rockets, missiles and weapons for Hamas. The article briefly mentions his role in the kidnapping and murder of 2 soldiers. Quite a “leader” as you so gently stated.
@Clifford Brennan: Well then its ok , thought we had a problem for a second
@Tony Moore: No, no problem. Happy to help clear up your unwitting lack of info on the guy who reaped what he sowed.
@Tony Moore: “Hamas has pointed the finger at Israel, blaming Mossad – the country’s secret service – for carrying out the hit.
Lt Gen Tamim did not go as far as directly blaming Israel, but said it was possible that “leaders of certain countries gave orders to their intelligence agents to kill” the Hamas man.” No evidence that it was Israel
@Clifford Brennan: Fair enough, but remember one thing. Mossad could have used fake passports with fake identities of any nationality. They didn’t. They used copies of passports issued to Irish citizens. Drop the whataboutery and tell us whether or not you condone that.
@Clifford Brennan: Just to enlighten you if that’s possible . I served in South Lebanon. And i seen the torture your south Lebanese SLA , inflicted on ordinarily Lebanese civilians. Including an old couple who had their throats cut. So lectures from you is like advice from a supporter of the ISIS on human rights.
@Josh Gilman: your sadly and badly informed.
@Tommy Roche: Im conflicted to be honest. On one hand our passports should be left alone, on the other you’ve a guy who founded an organisation that sent suicide bombers onto buses, into cafes, nightclubs, supermarkets etc killing hundreds and maiming thousands of civilians. When he got promoted to smuggling rockets, missiles etc for Hamas, he organised it with Iran from Syria. He left the safety of Syria and got clipped. No real loss. Understandably he’s a big target.
@Josh Gilman: The point is that we just don’t know how many “Irish Passports” are being used in this type of skulduggery by the Israelis who seem to think Irish Passport holders are fair game when it comes to copying passports from this country. They don’t just make a “copy” of a blank passport they use a “live” copy from some unsuspecting Irish Citizen who’s presence in other countries is then recorded. This is the danger ..
@Clifford Brennan: knob head
300 out of how many ….
Investment in an area of national security has only happened in the last 3 yrs or so?!!! This country continues to be a banana republic run by unaccountable eejits!! Absolutely shocking.
Typical how to deal with the problem, when the horse has bolted. This security glitch was known for some time.
have your say
