Evidence exists that Mossad had a role in helping the formation of Hamas/FOCUS ON ZIONIST GENOCIDE: US ARMY SAYS MOSSAD CAPABLE OF TERROR

[Ed: . Plus the recent terrorist bomb attack by 'British' Asians in
Occupied Palestine left a bad taste in the mouth on a number of levels:
1. It happened just as the American 'road map to peace' - in reality
nothing new and very wet, but that's another story - was published; a road
map that some Palestinians, plus the Israeli State isn't very keen on. If
the Israeli State wanted to stop it in its tracks, it could have wished for
nothing more than such a terrorist attack.
2. The fact that 'Britons' [sic] carried out the attack puts pressure on
Tony Blair - the man pushing the 'road map' to clamp down on anti-Zionist
activists in England, thus alienating Blair from the people he was trying
to assuage with this 'road map.'
3. The Muslim cleric who all right-wing tories love to hate - Abu Hamza,
known in the tory press as 'Captain Hook' - dismissed the terror attack as
the work of Mossad. Strange that a man who we're told loves to embrace
Muslim extremism and terrorism, was so swift to denounce the attack.
It is more than probable that Mossad either:
1. Pushed for this and similar attacks to happen.
2. Gives covert funding, information and suchlike to enable these attacks
to take place.
3. Thus provides the terrorist Israeli State with the 'moral high ground'
[sic] from which to stand in judgement on the poor maligned Palestinian
people and continue to flout international law and UN resolutions]:

U.S. Army Officers Say: 'Mossad May Blame Arabs'
Sometimes "the most likely suspect" in an act of terrorism is actually a
"false flag" working for-or otherwise "framed" by- those who are responsible.

Exclusive To American Free Press

By Michael Collins Piper

Top U.S. Army analysts believe Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad, is
"ruthless and cunning," "a wildcard" that "has [the] capability to target
U.S. forces and make it look like a Palestinian/Arab act."

This eye-opening assertion about America's supposed closest ally was
reported in a front page story in The Washington Times on September 10-just
one day before the terrorist attacks in America that are being blamed on
"Arabs."

The Times reported that this serious charge by U.S. Army officers against
the Israelis appeared in a 68-page paper prepared by 60 officers at the
U.S. Army's School for Advanced Military Studies, a training ground for
up-and-coming Army officers.

Then, just hours after the terrorist tra gedies, a well-known pro-Israel
analyst, George Friedman, proclaimed Israel as the primary beneficiary.

"The big winner today, intended or not, is the state of Israel," wrote
Fried man, who said on his Internet website at stratfor.com that "There is
no question ・that the Israeli leadership is feeling relief" in the wake of
the terrorist attack on America as a result of the benefits that Israel
will glean.

Considering the U.S. Army's questions about possible provocations by
Israel, coupled with this noted intelligence analyst's suggestion that
Israel was indeed "the big winner" on Sept. 11, a previous report in the
Aug. 3, 1993 issue of The Village Voice that Israel's Mossad was perhaps
involved in (or had foreknowledge of) the previous "Arab terrorist" attack
on the World Trade Center, takes on new dimensions.

The events of Sept. 11 do require careful attention in light of the fact
that Israel has had a long and proven record in planting "false
flags"-orchestrated assassinations and acts of terrorism for its own
purposes and pinning those atrocities on innocent parties.

Perhaps the best-known instance in which Israel used a "false flag" to
cover its own trail was in the infamous Lavon Affair. It was in 1954 that
several Israeli-orchestrated acts of terrorism against British targets in
Egypt were carried out. Blame for the attacks was placed on the Muslim
Brotherhood, which opposed the regime of Egyptian President Gamul
Abdul-Nasser. However, the truth about the wave of terror is found in a
once-secret cable from Col. Benjamin Givli, the head of Israel's military
intelligence, who outlined the intended purpose behind the wave of terror:

[Our goal] is to break the West's confidence in the existing [Egyptian]
regime. The actions should cause arrests, demonstrations, and expressions
of revenge. The Israeli origin should be totally covered while attention
should be shifted to any other possible factor. The purpose is to prevent
economic and military aid from the West to Egypt.

Ultimately the truth about Israel's involvement became public and Israel
was rocked internally in the wake of the scandal. Competing political
elements within Israel used the scandal as a bludgeon against their
opponents. But the truth about Israel's use of a "false flag" had come to
international attention and demonstrated how Israel was willing to endanger
innocent lives as part of its grand political strategy to expand its
influence in the Middle East.

BLAMING 'RIGHT WING' EXTREMISTS

A shadowy "right wing" group known as "Direct Action" was accused of the
attack on Goldenberg's Deli in Paris on Aug. 9, 1982. Six people died and
22 were injured. The leader of "Direct Action" was Jean-Marc Rouillan who
had been operating in the Mediterranean under the cover name of "Sebas" and
had been repeatedly linked to the Mossad. All references to Rouillan's
Mossad links were deleted from the official reports issued at the time.

However, the Algerian national news service, which has ties to French
intelligence, blamed the Mossad for Rouillan's activities. Angry French
intelligence officers were believed to have leaked this information.
Several top French security officials quit in protest over the cover-up of
Mossad complicity in Rouillan's crimes. However, other Mossad false flag
operations also took place on French soil.

FALSE CLUES

On Oct. 3, 1980, a synagogue on Co pernicus Street was bombed in Paris.
Four bystanders were killed. Nine were injured. The media frenzy which
followed the incident was worldwide. Reports held that "right wing
extremists" were responsible. Yet, of all the "right wing extremists" held
for questioning, none was arrested. In fact, all were released. In the
upper echelons of French intelligence, however, the finger of suspicion was
pointed at the Mossad.

According to one report: "On April 6, 1979, the same Mossad terror unit now
suspected of the Copernicus carnage blew up the heavily guarded plant of
CNIM industries at La Seyne-sur-Mer, near Toulon, in southeast France,
where a consortium of French firms was building a nuclear reactor for Iraq.

"The Mossad salted the site of the CNIM bomb blast with 'clues' followed up
with anonymous phone calls to police-suggesting that the sabotage was the
work of a 'conservative' environmentalist group-'the most pacific and
harmless people on earth' as one source put it."

MORE OF THE SAME

o On June 28, 1978, Israeli agents exploded a bomb under a small passenger
car in the Rue Saint Anne in Paris, killing Mohammed Boudia, an organizer
for the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). Immediately afterward,
Paris police received anonymous phone calls accusing Boudia of involvement
in narcotics deals and attributing his murder to the Corsican Mafia. A
thorough investigation subsequently established that Mossad special-action
agents were responsible for the terrorist killing.

o In October 1976 the same Mossad unit kidnapped two West German students
named Brigette Schulz and Thomas Reuter from their Paris hotel. Planted
"clues" and anonymous phone calls made it appear that a Bavarian "neo-nazi"
formation had executed the abduction. French intelligence established that
the two German youths had been secretly flown to Israel, drugged, tortured,
coerced into a false "confession of complicity" in PLO activities, and then
anonymously incarcerated in one of the Israeli government's notorious
political prisons.

o In February 1977 a German-born, naturalized U.S. citizen named William
Jahnke arrived in Paris for some secretive business meetings. He soon
vanished, leaving no trace. Paris police were anonymously informed that
Jahnke had been involved in a high-level South Korean bribery affair and
"eliminated" when the deal went sour. A special team of investigators from
SDECE, the leading French intelligence agency, eventually determined that
Jahnke had been "terminated" by the Mossad, which suspected him of selling
secret information to the Libyans. Along with other details of this sordid
case, the SDECE learned that Jahnke had been "fingered" to the Mossad by
his own former employer, the CIA.

BLAMING THE LIBYANS

One of Israel's most outrageous "false flag" operations involved a wild
propaganda story aimed at discrediting Libyan leader Muamar Qaddafi. In the
early months of the administration of President Ronald Reagan, the U.S.
media began promoting a story that a "Libyan hit squad" was in the United
States to assassinate the president. This inflamed public sentiment against
Libya.

Suddenly, however, the "hit squad" stories vanished. Ultimately it was
discovered that the source of the story was Manucher Ghorbanifar, a former
Iranian SAVAK (secret police) agent with close ties to the Mossad. Even the
liberal Washington Post acknowledged that the CIA itself believed that
Ghorbanifar was a liar who "had made up the hit-squad story in order to
cause problems for one of Is rael's enemies."

The Los Angeles Times had already blown the whistle on Israel's scare
stories. "Israeli intelligence, not the Reagan administration," reported
the Times, "was a major source of some of the most dramatic published
reports about a Libyan assassination team allegedly sent to kill President
Reagan and other top U.S. officials . . . Israel, which informed sources
said has 'wanted an excuse to go in and bash Libya for a longtime,' may be
trying to build American public support for a strike against [Qaddafi]."

In other words, Israel had been promoting the former SAVAK agent,
Ghorbanifar, to official Washing ton as a reliable source. In fact, he was
a Mossad disinformation operative waving a "false flag"-yet another Israeli
scheme to blame Libya for its own misdeeds, using one "false flag" (Iran's
SAVAK) to lay blame on another "false flag" (Libya).

The Mossad was almost certainly responsible for the bombing of the La Belle
discotheque in West Berlin on April 5, 1986. However, claims were made that
there was "irrefutable" evidence that the Libyans were responsible. A U.S.
serviceman was killed. President Ronald Reagan responded with an attack on
Libya.

However, intelligence insiders believed that Israel's Mossad had concocted
the phony "evidence" to "prove" Libyan responsibility. West Berlin police
director Manfred Ganschow, who took charge of the investigation, cleared
the Libyans, saying, "This is a highly political case. Some of the evidence
cited in Washington may not be evidence at all, merely assumptions supplied
for political reasons."

BLAMING THE SYRIANS

On April 18, 1986, Nezar Hindawi, a 32-year-old Jordanian man was arrested
in London after security guards found that one of the passengers boarding
an Israeli plane bound for Jerusalem, Ann Murphy, 22, was carrying a
square, flat sheet of plastic explosive in the double bottom of her
carry-on bag.

Miss Murphy told security men that the detonator (disguised as a
calculator) had been given to her by her fiancee, Hindawi. He was charged
with attempted sabotage and attempted murder.

Word was leaked that Hindawi had confessed and claimed that he had been
hired by Gen. Mohammed Al-Khouli, the intelligence director of the Syrian
air force. Also implicated were others including the Syrian ambassador in
London. The French authorities warned the British prime minister that there
was more to the case than met the eye-that is, Israeli involvement. This
was later confirmed in reports in the Western press.

BLAMING THE PLO

In 1970, King Hussein of Jordan was provided incriminating intelligence
that suggested the Palestine Liberation Organization was plotting to murder
him and seize power. Infuriated, Hussein mobilized his forces for what has
become known as the "Black September" purge of the PLO. Thousands of
Palestinians living in Jordan were rounded up, some of the leaders were
tortured, and in the end, masses of refugees were driven from Jordan to
Lebanon.

New data, coming to light after the murder of two leading Mossad operatives
in Larnaka, Cyprus, suggested that the entire operation had been a Mossad
covert action, led by one of its key operatives, Sylvia Roxburgh. She
contrived an affair with King Hussein and served as the linchpin for a
major Mossad coup designed to destabilize the Arabs.

In 1982, just when the PLO had abandoned the use of terrorism, the Mossad
spread disinformation about "terror attacks" on Israeli settlements along
the northern border in order to justify a full-scale military invasion of
Lebanon. Years later, even leading Israeli spokesmen, such as former
Foreign Minister Abba Eban, admitted that the reports of "PLO terrorism"
had been contrived by the Mossad.

It is also worth noting that the attempted assassination in London of
Israeli ambassador Shlomo Argov was initially blamed on the PLO. The
attempted assassination was cited by Israel as one excuse for its 1982
incursion into Lebanon. In fact, the diplomat was one of Israel's "doves"
and inclined toward a friendly disposition of Israel's conflict with the
PLO and an unlikely target of PLO wrath.

It appears that the assassination attempt was carried out by the
Mossad-under yet another "false flag"-for two purposes: (a) elimination of
a domestic "peacenik" friendly toward the Palestinians; and (b) pinning yet
another crime on the PLO.
