It was rush hour on Friday evening in Dublin City. Traffic was heavy and because of a bus strike there were a lot more people milling about the streets, heading home from work. At 28 minutes past five the first bomb exploded and caused utter devastation on Parnell Street. Then, two minutes later a second one went off on Talbot Street. Two minutes after that a third bomb exploded. The bombs caused absolute chaos in the streets of Dublin. A fourth bomb then exploded in the county of Monaghan 90 minutes later. These bombings are responsible for the single deadliest death toll in the conflict known as the Troubles and today, over 40 years later, there are many aspects of this attack which are still shrouded in mystery.Sources:'The Impact of The Troubles on the Republic of Ireland 1968-79' by Brian HanleyHidden Hand Documentary:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNvZHDafi38The Barron Reporthttps://relativesforjustice.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/barron03.pdfWitness Account of the Bombinghttps://www.rte.ie/archives/2019/0508/1048174-witness-accounts-of-dublin-bombings/Recent Article About the Attack https://www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/investigator-pledges-to-work-to-find-truth-behind-dublin-monaghan-bombings-1.4255548Recent Article About the Attack https://www.irishtimes.com/news/families-remember-dublin-monaghan-bombs-1.1312544Article About How the Attack Wasn't Mentioned in Irish Schoolshttps://www.irishtimes.com/news/politics/dublin-and-monaghan-bombings-airbrushed-from-school-books-1.3694048The McEntee Reporthttp://www.dublinmonaghanbombings.org/home/docs/CommissionOfInvestigationFinalReport.pdfWikipedia Entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dublin_and_Monaghan_bombings See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
