The Padre: The True Story of the Irish Priest who armed the IRA with Gaddafi's M

Description: The Padre by Jennifer O'Leary In The Padre, award-winning investigative journalist Jennifer OLeary exposes the exploits of notorious former Irish priest and active IRA supporter Patrick Ryan – exposing details which have, outside of his very guarded circles, been unknown until now. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description For almost two decades, Father Patrick Ryan evaded intelligence agencies across Europe and was, for a time, one of the most wanted men in Britain.In The Padre, award-winning investigative journalist Jennifer OLeary exposes the exploits of this notorious former Irish priest and active IRA supporter. Revealing sensational details divulged to her during exclusive secret meetings with Ryan, the book lifts the lid on the true extent of the priests involvement with the IRA and its campaign of terror across Europe, Britain and Ireland – from being a trusted link between the regime of Muammar Gaddafi and the IRA, to his involvement in improving IRA explosive devices, which made possible the almost successful assassination attempt on Margaret Thatcher and her Cabinet in Brighton.The Padre tells the truly remarkable story of this man of the cloth, who, decades on, is still unrepentant about his ruthless zealotry in pursuit of money, weapons and assistance for the IRAs violence. Indeed, his one regret is that he wasnt even more effective. Author Biography Jennifer is a writer and award-winning investigative journalist currently based in Belfast.
