- Irish Republican Army (IRA) official
who spied for British may have had the goods on more senior spies. The
torture/slaying of Denis Donaldson, the former Sinn Fein legislative chief
in the aborted Protestant-Catholic Northern Ireland administration, reportedly
knew of more senior Sinn Fein/IRA officials who had provided internal IRA
documents to British intelligence, according to sources close to Sinn Fein.
-
- Donaldson, who was imprisoned in Long
Kesh (HM Prison Maze) prison with his friend, famous IRA hunger striker
and British MP Bobby Sands, trained in the early 1980s in Lebanon with
members of the Palestine Liberation Organization and other terrorist groups.
Donaldson maintained his contacts with Hezbollah and the Sh'ia Amal militia
after he was recruited as a British agent.
-
- Donaldson had made numerous enemies over
the years, ranging from more militant Irish republicans, others within
Sinn Fein and the IRA, and Israeli and, more recently, U.S. intelligence,
which has been authorized to assassinate any current or former terrorist
as part of a "Worldwide Attack Matrix" drawn up by former CIA
Director George Tenet in the wake of 911. All are prime suspects in his
assassination.

-
- Donaldson had accrued many enemies over
the years. All are suspect in his torture/murder
-
- Donaldson was living in fear of his life
in a small village in county Donegal in Ireland. He remained distraught
throughout the remainder of his life over the death of Sands. However,
with torture and two gunshot wounds to the head, suicide was not the cause
of Donaldson's death. The Iranian revolutionary government changed the
name of the Tehran street where the British embassy is located from Winston
Churchill Street to Bobby Sands Street as a show of support for the Irish
republican movement.
