Irish so-called 'Free State' citizens may consider their country to be sovereign and free to conduct its political affairs as its democratically elected government sees fit. This book provides persuasive evidence that such belief is merely a fond and nostalgic illusion because, in all matters of importance to the UK, US and NATO, the Irish security services are mere junior partners who do as they are told - or else!

Introduction
If the modern Irish state could point to any one moment to define its birth that would be the day that the new Irish police force marched into Dublin Castle and took control of the organs of the state that had ruled over Ireland, sometimes with more fear than justice, for some 700 years. Many of the new recruits to the fledging Irish police force were present that day, all of them full of the awesome weight of history and giddy with the hope and expectation of a risen nation. One of their number was William Geary who a few years later was to rise to the rank of Superintendent in the gardai and it is maybe his life story that encapsulates for some the deep problems that were to develop in the justice system of the emerging Irish state. The story goes that he was posted to Clare only to be summarily dismissed from his job without any explanation or any trial. He then spent all the years from 1934 till his death in 2004 trying to find justice. He was to end up writing to pretty much every single Minister for Justice that the Irish state ever had, always been ignored, or sent on his way with the myriad of insulting excuses and coverups that so many Irish people have had occasion to experience. He ended up at his death with a few heavily censored and incomplete files and a hollow apology for an incident that occurred some 75 years before. Never getting any real answers or evidence all he could do was explain to all that would listen how he had been setup by Davey Neligan, the first head of the Irish Secret Service, a person that drew a pension from the British Secret Service on his retirement for services that are by no means clear.
Nobody ever gets any real answers as to what those intelligence agencies really do in Ireland, or who they genuinely answer to, but we can always guess and in that spirit I hope the references and links in this book might throw up a few clues. I would like to thank indymedia.ie for hosting the articles that this work is based on and also many many thanks for all the comments that they attracted from people like Barry, Seán Ryan, Eamonn Crudden, Jeff, Mary Kelly and Fergal Gallagher.
Many thanks to my parents also and all who know me.
