2nd Anniversary of the Assassination of Rafik al-Hariri
"In his book Mordakte Hariri. Unterdruckte Spuren im Libanon (The Hariri File: Silenced Evidence in Lebanon) German journalist Jurgen Cain Kulbel makes a strong case for the United States and Israeli link to the Hariri assassination.
The major revelation in the book is that the static emitters of Mr Hariri's convoy, normally capable of preventing the activation of bombs at a distance, "totally failed". The journalist affirms, citing a Swiss expert, that the system could only be neutralized by its maker, which happens to be none other than an Israeli company founded by ex-Mossad agents."
Juicy.
Though i'm on the same side of the ballpark as this guy, I thought his article wasn't altogether convincing (incidently not the author mentioned above), opening with an argument that looks alot like "Not B therefore A" (...And what also floats like a duck?)
But I found the excerpt in the article from "The Other Side of Deception" worth a look - a book written by an ex-Mossad agent named Victor Ostrovsky; its focus more on Mossad's operations in Iraq.
Circa 1989, "The media was supplied with inside information and tips from reliable sources on how the crazed leader of Iraq killed people with his bare hands and used missiles to attack Iranian cities. What they neglected to tell the media was that most of the targeting for the missiles was done by the Mossad with the help of American satellites. The Mossad was grooming Saddam for a fall, but not his own. They wanted the Americans to do the work of destroying that gigantic army in the Iraqi desert so that Israel would not have to face it one day on its own border. That in itself was a noble cause for an Israeli, but to endanger the world with the possibility of global war and the deaths of thousands of Americans was sheer madness."
What a colourful picture.
