Israel has officially admitted after more than two decades of secrecy that it ordered the Israeli spy agency Mossad to carry out the assassination of Palestinian leader Khalil Ibrahim Wazir.
Wazir, also known as Abu Jihad, founded the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah Party with Yasser Arafat and was assassinated in Tunisia in 1988. More than two dozen Israeli commandos attacked his heavily guarded home, “including two agents who approached the house posing as a vacationing couple but carrying guns with silencers,” reports the Los Angeles Times.
The killing was widely believe to have been carried out by Israel, although Israeli leadership refused to confirm or deny the accusations. The international community, including the United States, condemned the illegal assassination.
Wazir “was believed to have been behind numerous strikes against Israelis,” reports the Times, “including a 1978 bus-hijacking attack that killed 38 Israelis, and to have helped organize the 1987 Palestinian uprising known as the first Intifada from his base in Tunisia.”
The admission confirms allegations that Israel’s Mossad service in a lawless para-military group, and in fact raises more questions about whether or not Israel also killed Yasser Arafat, who died in 2004 of mysterious causes.
Many have alleged that Arafat was poisoned, and laid blame on Israel. Arafat’s body was recently exhumed in order to run tests for traces of polonium, a chemical known to be used in political assassinations.
Maybe in a couple decades they'll admit to poisoning Arafat. And what is taking so long to run tests, wasn't his body was exhumed months ago?
Dr. Ahmad Shukarie founded the PLO in 1964 before Arafat rose to its leadership..
arafat was poisoned by israeli agents (collaborators) with polonium. 99%. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middlee…
a highly illegal assassination of a head of "state", under siege in his compound (which was regularly shot at, likely in attempts to kill him outright).
israel was also a player in the 9/11 false flag, but the key players were treasonous criminals in the USG.

Good stuff….. Thanks
A fine article, but it has never been a secret that Israel murdered Abu Jihad. They've been boasting about it in customary hubristic manner.
God bless america for making all this happen and planting this cancer on Palestinian land.
Bibi needs to entertain some tourists.
i knew that since 1988
Why should anyone even express indignation? This is what Israel has been doing since its creation and is still doing.
There is only one way to deal with Israel.
How's this news? Isreal has been murdering Palestinians leaders and Palestinian citizens and those of other countries since before they even became Isreal. This is nothing new or groundbreaking, they're simply doing what they do: murdering, bombing, kidnapping, slaughtering, terrorizing everybody.
What one needs to pay attention to is this: either you are with us or against us.. Remember Bush saying that? Well, Israel practices the same philosopy in dealing with those that they deem, "are against them". With one of the best espionage/intelligence agencies the world has ever seen, even nations like the U.S. and Russia tread lightly. After all, their folks are located in every nation in the world, and their race hold significant positions throughout the world's nations.
I'm wondering about the Benghazi incident. I'm suspecting…. I mean like, that would explain all the misinformation circulating about it…
Look: it was said from day one that Yasser Arafat was murdered by the French and Israeli mafia, it was planed by those who didn't want the peace and prosperity to even come close to this part of the world, you can find these people in England, the French, the Swedish, the Germans and off course US and above all within the religious terrorism that exist in Israel where the present Israel government trying to build a new government.
That is highly STUPID. Why on earth would they want to admit that? Are they looking to get bombed??
