"Now, you might just think that the E
vening Herald
(Newspaper) is being lazy here, in going for sensationalism
rather than proper analysis, but remember, that 'newspaper' is
controlled by Independent News and Media, and INM is
Sir
Anthony
O'Reilly's company, the man who owns
40.08% of
Providence Resources, currently
exploring the
Porcupine Basin off the coast of Co.
Clare for
gas and
oil."

Assuming they are true, and I
have no reason to seriously doubt them, how can the
"
S.F.A." (
Sweet
F**k
All) type statements made above
fit in with the piece below from
Article 10 of
Bunreacht na hEireann (Constitution of the Republic of
Ireland)?
"All
natural resources, including the air and all forms of
potential energy, within the jurisdiction of the Parliament
and Government established by this Constitution and all
royalties and franchises within that jurisdiction belong to
the State ..."From Wikipedia:
"More
generally, 'gombeen' is now an adjective referring to all
kinds of underhand or corrupt activities and to the mindset
possessed by those engaged in such activities. In Irish
politics, it is used to condemn an opponent for dishonesty or
corruption, although its definition has become less precise
with time and usage and it can also imply pettiness and
close-mindedness. Alternative modern parlance for a gombeen
man is someone 'on the make'." (Excerpt copied from
