Latest / The Irish History Boys
Siege and Injustice
This episode of the Irish History Boys explores two significant and controversial events that unfolded in 1975, beginning with the curious, unsanctioned kidnapping of Dr.Tiede Herrema, a Dutch industrialist, in County Limerick by rogue IRA members.
The kidnappers, led by Eddie Gallagher, sought the release of Republican prisoners like Rose Dugdale, leading to a massive, internationally covered siege.
Simultaneously, an infamous trial was concluding across the water regarding the 1974 Guildford and Woolwich pub bombings.
