Another link to a possible IRA connection..

Here.

The unit was known to operate from a "mobile platform"an-improvised armoured saloon car with a gun mount in the back -which made it almost undetectable.

After the attacks, which resulted in 11 deaths (including one in Fermanagh), in only 14 or 15 operations, the sniper was driven away leaving no shells or forensic contamination.

Someone is now copying this same tactic in the DC area.....I really am now beginning to wonder..

Very interesting, Dog. I notice that NYPD has a BOLO on the white vans. Hmmmm.

Well, our DC sniper isn't exactly following the same tactics. There has been quite a bit of forensic contamination. That is how they've been able to link all 12 events.

Hello everyone. I have been in chronic (sporadic) lurker mode for many weeks. When I posted a spur of the moment comment to Dog on another thread, he reminded me of my manners. So, I'm breaking lurker mode to say "hi" and to tell you how glad I am to see many of you still here and apparently well.

youuuu-whooooo. illstillbeeeeeee!
