World's most prolific terrorist

Abu Nidal

World's most prolific terrorist

	A young Nidal
The Abu Nidal Organization had operated for over 30 years, and was responsible for over 900 deaths. Targets included hijackings, bombings, and assassination of troublesome Palestinian leaders. Abu Nidal AKA Sabri al-Banna, was was born in 1937, and there are various versions of his history. One version has his family losing everything, in 1948, to the Jews, and he drifted from refugee camp to camp. He finally wound up in Saudi Arabia, where he started his terror organization, - Black September. Another version has him as a son of an Arab mother and a Jewish father. He was outcast by his 1/2 brothers, and sisters, and was educated in Israel, and then Cairo.
He worked out of Iraq, Syria, Libya, and Lebanon. He died in August of 2002. Bios

The 'Abu the Terrorist' was really Mossad

Author Patrick Seale wrote: Abu Nidal was undoubtedly a Mossad agent. Practically every job he did benefited Israel. Confirming Seale's theory are top Middle East terrorism experts, including intelligence officers in Arab countries, and even within Abu Nidal's own organization. All the European and Mid-East terror experts agree that Nidal was Mossad. He was a protégé of Menacham Begins ... ran free for 30 yrs ...used to kill unwanted Palestinians Seale pointed out the senseless and extremely brutal attacks only benefited Israel. Nidal had two thrusts .... He killed Palestinians that were a threat to Israel, and hijacked American and European jets. Seale's hypothesis is based on four main points: 1 ------------ Abu Nidal killings have damaged the Palestinian cause to Israel's advantage. 2 -------------Only 10% of the victims were Jewish, the other 90% were bystanders. 3--------------The lack of attacks on Israel. 4 ------------- Lack of involvement in the Intifada, and Israel's failure to retaliate against Abu Nidal's groups.

1970 "Black September" hijacked four aircraft to Dawson's Field, a former RAF base in Zarga, Jordan, where they were destroyed. Another aircraft, a Pan Am Boeing 747-100, was hijacked by two Palestinians and landed in Beirut for re-fueling. The hijackers then realized the 747 is too big to land on the short runway. Therefore, the aircraft was re-routed to Cairo, where it was destroyed.

The 1972 Munich Olympic massacre Abu's organization, Black September, invaded the Munich's Olympic village, and took the Israeli Olympics team hostage. There was a standoff, and the Germans agreed to let the Nidal's operatives escape. They go to an airport were they are ambushed, and some of the terrorists were killed as well as 11 Israelis . Israel has the Mossad assassinate the 11 Arabs connected, but don't touch Abu Nidal. The odd part --- Abu Nidal killed from 1972 till 2002, and the Mossad never retaliated and killed him?

1976 ... Entebbe Nidal's organization hijacked an Air France jet, and flew to Benghazi, Libya, where they released everyone but the Jewish passengers. Next they flew to Entebbe, Uganda, where Idi Amin ( an Israeli puppet), decided to help the hijackers. Israel then pulled a rescue, portraying themselves as elite commandos, and the Arabs as despicable. There have been three movies and eight books about the Entebbe raid.

1985 Egypt Four members of Nidal's group hijacked a cruise ship, and threw Leon Klinghoffer and his wheelchair into the ocean. The terrorists surrendered to Hosni Mubarak, and he flew them to safety. Reagan had F-14 Tomcats intercept the airliner, and force it to land in Sicily. The terrorists were released, and Israel never touched the ring-leader, because he was Mossad.

	1985 Rome and Vienna At the Leonardo da Vinci Airport in Rome, Nidal's Black September teams machine-guned people at a ticket counter, killing 13 and wounding 75.

The CIA intercepted the broadcast , and listened for weeks, thinking they were Libyans. Nidal's group planted a bomb in a popular GI hang-out, the La Belle disco. The Mossad killed two US servicement, a Turkish woman, and maimed another 229 people. Reagan bought into it, and bombed Libya as retaliation. It took the US government 10 days to retaliate for the attack by bombing Libya - it took 15 years, and the fall of the Berlin Wall, to convict the attackers.

update

U.K. file on Entebbe contains claim that Israel behind hijacking By Haaretz Service

Newly released British documents contain a claim by an unnamed contact that the Shin Bet security service collaborated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine to hijack the June 1976 flight from Israel that was diverted to Entebbe, Uganda, the BBC reported Friday.

Israel's rescue of the dozens of hostages taken in the hijacking of the Air France plane, popularly known as the Entebbe raid, is considered one of the most daring and successful operations in Israeli history. Elite Israel Defense Forces troops stormed the airport where the hostages, many of them Israeli, were held and overpowered the hijackers and Ugandan soldiers.

Although the captors used the hijacking to demand the release of Palestinians or Palestinian supporters, a British government file on the incident quotes the unnamed source as telling a British diplomat in Paris that Israel was behind the hijacking. The claim is not known to be backed up by corroborating evidence, and the file does not make it clear whether the British government took the claim seriously.

"The operation was designed to torpedo the PLO's standing in France and to prevent what they see as a growing rapprochement between the PLO and the Americans," the BBC report said British diplomat D.H. Colvin wrote in the document, citing his source.

"My contact said the PFLP had attracted all sorts of wild elements, some of whom had been planted by the Israelis," Colvin reportedly wrote. "According to his information, the hijack was the work of the PFLP, with help from the Israeli Secret Service, the Shin Beit."

The document was written on June 30, 1976, three days after the hijacking and prior to the rescue operation.
