ed note–and we are supposed to believe that Israel–responsible for false flag attacks such as the Lavon Affair, the USS LIBERTY, Oklahoma City, 911 and probably a million others that we don’t know about, would actually come to the defense of the US?
Perhaps all should consider what former Mossad officer Victor Ostrovsky wrote in his book ‘By Way of Deception’ concerning Mossad’s foreknowledge of the planned bombing of the US Marine barracks in Lebanon in 1982 that killed 250 American servicemen–
“In the summer of 1983, this same informant told the Mossad about a large Mercedes truck that was being fitted by the Shi’ite Muslims with spaces that could hold bombs. Now, the Mossad knew that because of its size, there were only a few logical targets, one of which must be the U.S. compound. The question then was whether or not to warn the Americans to be on particular alert for a truck matching the description. Admony, in refusing to give the Americans specific information on the truck, said, ‘No, we’re not there to protect Americans.’ At the same time, however, all Israeli installations were given the specific details and warned to watch for a truck matching the description of the Mercedes.”
“The loss of 241 U.S. Marines, most of them still sleeping in their cots at the time of the suicide mission, was the highest single-day death toll for the Americans since 246 died throughout Vietnam at the start of the Tet offensive on January 13,1968. The general attitude at Mossad about the Americans was: “As far as the Yanks go, we are not here to protect them. They can do their own watching. They wanted to stick their nose into this thing, so let them pay the price.”
Shin Bet claims to have captured an al-Qaeda terror cell which was planning a double terror attack on a number of central cites in Israel.
A Jerusalem Magistrate Court has cleared for publication that the Shin Bet has recently arrested three Palestinians, the most senior of which from east Jerusalem and the other two from the West Bank, and that the three were actively involved in planning at least two major terror attacks including a suicide and truck bombing.
(R) Abu Najma, Aanam and Abu Sarah
According to suspicions, the cell was planning to undertake a complex set of terror attacks on the orders of a Gaza-based operator who is directly affiliated with al-Qaeda and answers directly to Qaeda leader Ayman Zawahiri.
The Shin Bet investigation revealed that some four months ago, the Gaza operator, who works under the Salafist alias Arib a-Shaham, enlisted the three: Iyad Abu Sarah, 24 from east Jerusalem, Rubin Abi Najma, 30, from Nablus and Ala Aanam, 22, from a village nor far from Jenin.
The Shin Bet believe that their enlistment and deployment was conducted over the internet via Skype and Facebook, without anyone of the three knowing about the other’s existence or their orders.
According to the Shin Bet, Abu Sarah admitted during interrogation to receiving instructions to carryout a large-scale terror attack and he also said he had begun learning the tenets of Salafism. His father apparently noticed his son’s new-found interest in radical Islam and attempted to dissuade him. Abu Sarah also donated funds to support the transfer of radical forces to al-Qaeda in Syira.
Bombs away
During his investigation, Abu Sarah claimed he was planning an attack on a bus which runs from Jerusalem to the settlement of Ma’ale Adumim. The plan was to fire at the bus’s wheels in a bid to cause it to flip over. He then planned to fire on the fleeing crash survivors and arriving rescue forces.
After scrapping this idea, Abu Sarah began organizing a plan to orchestrate a simultaneous terror attack in two major sites: Jerusalem’s International Convention Center and the American embassy in Tel Aviv’s Yarkon Street.
During his investigation he revealed that he planned to leave the country soon to travel to Syria where he was expected to meet with al-Qaeda operatives and work with five of them to actualize the double terror attack. He was supposed to aid the five to enter Israel with fake Russian identification.
According to the plan, three of the five terrorists were suppose to detonate a massive explosive at the heart of the crowds entering the International Convention Center and after that Abu Sara was suppose to lead and explosive laden truck to the scene to target the rescue and security forces arriving in wake of the blast.
In the meantime, two other al-Qaeda operatives were suppose to descend on the US embassy in Tel Aviv with suicide belts strapped onto their bodies and detonate them at the entrance to the embassy.
The Shin Bet noted that Abu Sarah was only in initial planning stages, including training for making explosives with fertilizers and purchasing flight tickets to Syria from which he could cross into Syria. Abu Sarah also received instruction on bomb making from his Gaza operator.
Al-Qaeda in the West Bank
The second man taken in for Shin Bet interrogation, Abu Najma, also admitted to planning to kidnap a soldier in Jerusalem and place an explosive device at the entrance to the mostly-Jewish Abu Tor neighborhood in the capital.
The third man, Aanam, admitted to planning to form a terror cell in his home village near Jenin.
The Shin Bet noted that the three had no previous record of terror activities, but they did express support of such organizations, namely al-Qaeda.
“We are talking about a serious plan that was now in initial stages of coming together. During investigation we updated that relevant parties in the US and elsewhere,” a senior Shin Bet source said.
“Their mode of operation is identical to that presented by al-Qaeda when it perpetrates terror attacks around the world, especially along the Egyptian-Israeli border, with the held of internet correspondence. This cell is not connected to the one found and eliminated in Yata village in southern Mount Hebron” at the end of November, the source added.
The source also noted that the five foreign operatives who were expected to participate in the attack were apprehended because of alert border control forces.
The Shin Bet further noted that “the phenomena of international jihad and al-Qaeda, now in its infancy in Judea and Samaria, after it has already garnered hundreds of operatives in Gaga. Together with the Palestinian Authority we can stop it.
Regarding Gaza, the Shin Bet said that Hamas’ effort to stop rival factions from escalating the situation in the south has as of new been confined to talking and placing security forces in the field, but no arrests.
