Buenos Aires (AFP) - An Argentine prosecutor found dead just hours before giving what was expected to be damning testimony against President Cristina Kirchner appears to have committed suicide, officials said Monday.

"All signs point to suicide," said Argentine Security Secretary Sergio Berni following the death of Alberto Nisman, 51, whose body was found overnight in his apartment in the trendy Puerto Madero neighborhood of the capital.

Federal prosecutor Viviana Fein said Nisman died of "a gunshot wound to the temple," and said results of an autopsy completed earlier Monday would be released "in the coming hours."

Nisman, who had accused President Cristina Kirchner of obstructing a probe into a 1994 Jewish center bombing, was found dead of a gunshot wound just hours before he was due to testify at a congressional hearing.

The development set off an uproar in Argentina with officials expressing shock over his untimely death.

Anibal Fernandez, secretary general for the presidency, said he was "dumbfounded," adding there was "absolutely nothing normal" about it.

Kirchner, in an statement released through her intelligence minister Oscar Parrilli, ordered the de-classification of intelligence information Nisman had sought a week before his death.

Israel expressed sorrow over Nisman's death, praising him as a courageous jurist who "worked with great determination to expose the attack's perpetrators and dispatchers."

"The State of Israel hopes Argentina's authorities will continue Nisman's work, and take every possible effort to bring those behind the Argentina attacks to justice," an Israeli foreign ministry spokesman said.

Officials said a .22-caliber handgun was found beside Nisman's body, which was discovered by his mother in the bathroom of his 13th floor apartment after his security detail was unable to contact him.

Nisman since 2004 had been investigating the 1994 van bombing of the building of the Argentine Jewish Charities Federation, or AMIA.

The bombing left 85 people dead and 300 others injured in the worst attack of its kind in the South American country.

Nisman last week had asked for an investigation into possible obstruction by Kirchner and was due to speak at a congressional hearing Monday to provide evidence of his assertions.

He was also expected to lodge accusations against her foreign minister Hector Timerman.

Timerman, who strongly denied the accusations against him, said he expected prosecutors to pursue whatever evidence Nisman had.

"There are many people who were aware of what Nisman wanted to present today in Congress and I expect they will go forward with his work," he told reporters in New York.

The prosecutor had accused Iran of being behind the attack and said Kirchner hampered the inquiry to curry favor with the Islamic republic and gain access to its oil.

The government has categorically denied the accusations.

Nisman had also accused former president Carlos Menem (1989-99) of helping obstruct an investigation into the bombing, which has never been solved.

Since 2006, Argentine courts have demanded the extradition of eight Iranians, including former president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, former defense minister Ahmad Vahidi and Mohsen Rabbani, Iran's former cultural attache in Buenos Aires.

Argentina charges that Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite movement, carried out the attack under orders from Iran, which Tehran denies.

Nisman had said he had phone recordings that show the Kirchner government and Argentine authorities had bowed to Iranian demands after the Islamic republic dangled lucrative commercial contracts.

The intelligence information that Kirchner ordered declassified following Nisman's death involved wiretaps on four telephone numbers, Parrilli said.

Nisman was supposed to present proof of his allegations that Kirchner and Timerman had a "plan of impunity" to "protect the Iranian fugitives."

In addition to his complaint, Nisman had ordered the freezing of assets worth some $23 million of Kirchner, Timerman and other officials.

Jewish community members had cautiously welcomed Nisman's complaint, but also requested he make public evidence to back up his assertions.

Opposition lawmaker Patricia Bullrich said she was shocked by Nisman's death, calling it "a grave affront to the country's institutions."

Bullrich said she'd spoken to Nisman on the phone on Saturday on three occasions and he said that he had received several threats.

Elisa Carrio, leader of the Civic Coalition, an opposition party, bluntly called Nisman's death "an assassination," saying she did not accept that it was a suicide.

In 2013, Argentina's Congress approved, at the request of the executive branch, an agreement with Tehran to form a truth commission to investigate the bombing, consisting of five members from neither Argentina nor Iran.

It also authorized an Argentine judge to travel to Iran to question the former officials accused of involvement.

The Jewish center bombing came two years after an attack against the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires that killed 29 people.

In January 2014, Argentina accused Israel of concealing information about the attacks after a former Israeli ambassador to Argentina suggested that those responsible had been killed by Israeli security forces.

Argentina's Jewish population of about 300,000 people is the largest in Latin America.

Nisman Murdered? Suicide Story Crumbles After No Gunpowder Found On Argentine's Hands (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-01-20/nisman-murdered-suicide-story-crumbles-after-no-gunpowder-found-argentines-hands)

When news broke of the death, by gunshot wound to the head, of Alberto Nisman (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-01-19/argentine-prosecutor-found-dead-hours-testimony-against-president-fernandez) - the prosecutor who was due within hours to deliver testimony implicating the Argentine President in covering up the investigation into a bombing in 1994 - it seemed oddly quick for police to rule it suicide within hours (especially after his earlier concerns that "I could end up dead because of this.") Today's news from The Buenos Aires Herald (http://buenosairesherald.com/article/179980/no-gunpowder-traces-found-on-nisman%E2%80%99s-hands-tests-ordered-on-alleged-weapon-) that the "unexpected result" of forensic analysis of Nisman’s body confirmed that there were no traces of gunpowder on his hands suggests (despite experts still proclaiming it does not rule out suicide) has prompted many questions over just how he died. Even the US has offered help... and protests are growing larger.

yes the man was not a gun owner according to that story and he was recently given the .22 pistol that he apparently died by. They know who gave it to him.

I assume they have confirmed the calibre that killed him. They are confident that, that .22 pistol was the one that he was killed with?

And the comments of the president are interesting. Better just to go with the narrative of suicide and not question it because how can you know what was going on in that mans mind? I think it was pretty clear what he thought. Iran was accused of blowing something up. Thats what it is all about.

Argentine President Cristina Kirchner in about-face after prosecutor's mysterious death

The president of Argentina has changed her view of the death of a prosecutor just before he had been due to give evidence against her.

Buenos Aires, Argentina: Confronted with a deepening scandal, the president of Argentina did an abrupt about-face on Thursday, saying that the death of the lead prosecutor investigating the 1994 bombing of a Jewish centre was not a suicide as she and other government officials had suggested.
http://www.theage.com.au/content/dam/images/1/1/i/8/q/z/image.related.articleLeadwide.620x349.12wm8w.png/1421976549180.jpg
Instead, President Cristina Kirchner suggested that the prosecutor's death was part of what she hinted was a sinister plot to defame and destroy her.

The president's change of position added a major new twist into the suspicious death of the prosecutor, Alberto Nisman, whose body was found in his luxury apartment in Buenos Aires late on Sunday. He was killed by a shot in the head.

Charlie Hebdo Redux in Argentina (http://henrymakow.com/2015/01/Charlie-Hebdo-Redux-in-Argentina%20.html)



Argentine Federal Prosecutor Alberto Nisman, left was found shot to death Sunday. Israelis believe (http://www.haaretz.com/opinion/.premium-1.637936http://www.haaretz.com/opinion/.premium-1.637936) he was murdered because he was going to testify Monday about Argentine President Cristina Kirchner's coverup of a Iranian role in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish Community Center that killed 85 and injured hundreds. Miguel, a resident of Buenos Aires challenges this view.



With this last service for Israel, Nisman helped destroy Cristina Kirchner's government . Her government was too Pro-Palestinian, Pro Iran, and pro Russia and China. Sound like France's recognition of the Palestinians and Charlie Hebdo?


Latest: Cristina Kirchner claims (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2921838/Argentinian-president-Cristina-Kirchner-says-prosecutor-murdered-implicate-her.html#ixzz3Pe4V70HR)that Alberto Nisman did not commit suicide, but was instead killed in an 'operation' against her government.

I live in Argentina ( Buenos Aires) and I know about the two car bomb attacks in Buenos Aires. The first was against the Israel embassy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1992_attack_on_Israeli_embassy_in_Buenos_Aires) in 1992 which killed 29 and injured 242. The second in March 1994 was against AMIA, a Jewish Community organization.

The embassy bombing looks like a MOSSAD false flag. MOSSAD agents were Johnny on the spot immediately after ( this seemed too quick). The Israeli theory was that a bomb car was involved.

But a later investigation by four expert in explosives determined that the explosives were inside of the building. There was no suicide bomb car driven by a Muslim driver ( as Israel said) and no crater in the street. So no one talks about the Embassy bombing.

At the time of the explosion, the ambassador and all high-level people were not present; there were only low level employers. So as the Embassy bombing was not success in incriminating Hezbolla and Iran, they needed a new terrorist attack against AMIA. Again, only low level employees were killed or harmed.

ALBERTO NISMAN


In my opinion, Nisman's "suicide" was instigated by Israel.


Alberto Nisman is Argentinian jew. Isn't it strange that a Jew was given the responsibility of investigating the AMIA bombing?

My theory is that Nisman's death is a false flag piled on a another false flag. His "suicide" was Nisman's last service to Israel. It was something else Israel can blame on Iran. They did not find gun powder on his right hand. Could be killed or helped suicide by others ( MOSSAD?).


With this service, Israel Nisman helped:

1) Destroy Cristina Kirchner's government . Her government was too Pro Palestinian, Pro Iran, and pro Russia and China. People have been mislead to think the government is responsible, and they are very angry.

2) It makes people think Iran is guilty in the AMIA case.

QUI BONO? ISRAEL OF COURSE

This is NOT a good for government. So why would they do it?

But it is is good for Israel. Now Nisman is a hero and people think he has great information about " secret pact" with Iran to escape culpability. . I think that Nisman was a liar for Israel without any real probe or important information.

I am anti Kirchner. But Cristina believed in Iran's innocence and was courageous in this matter. Israel wanted to stop more investigations because they have not real proof against Iran.
--------
First Comment from Dan-

"News of Nisman's death came just hours before he was to present evidence to Argentina's congress that he said implicated his country's president and foreign minister in a nefarious cover-up scheme." HAARETZ

Okay, so what is it? What is this evidence?

Listen; a Special Prosecutor isn't like a witness with testimony that evaporates with their death.
Any evidence he would have presented in court is documented in the case brief and office files. Prosecutors have assistants, research staff, secretaries, private detectives - people that know what he knew.

If he had evidence implicating Kirchner's government we can be damn sure that the AMIA and Israeli Embassy wouldn't let a little thing like the death of the prosecutor stop that evidence from being presented in Federal court - and yelled from roof tops all over the world - especially now, when Israel is desperate to recover ownership the 'victim' narrative.

Since all the media buzz on this event is about anything but NIsman's case file and the evidence he had, and not a mention much less a statement from the Assistant Prosecutor who would have that file, we know there IS NO EVIDENCE.

There's nothing to debate. Nisman's dead. Let's see them go ahead with their case against Iran - if they have one. if Iran didn't do it, there wasn't anything for Kirchner to cover up.

Either they have the case they say Nisman was about to present, or they don't.

March 17 1992, July 19, 1994, April 19 1995

These bombings in Buenos Aires were underreported in the United States. That's how it goes with how news is presented to us. The July 19, 1994 bombing in downtown Buenos Aires was as visually dramatic as our Oklahoma City Federal Building bombing on April 19, 1995, but the news handlers merely mentioned it one and let it go.

Argentine prosecutor shot point blank in forehead: official

Buenos Aires (AFP) - An Argentine prosecutor found dead shortly before he was about to make explosive allegations about President Cristina Kirchner took a bullet point-blank to his forehead, justice officials said Saturday.

Authorities said Diego Lagomarsino, a computer expert and colleague who said he had brought prosecutor Alberto Nisman a handgun Saturday night at his request, has been barred from leaving Argentina.

Nisman was found dead with a bullet to the head in his Buenos Aires home on Sunday, just before he was set to go before a congressional hearing to accuse Kirchner and Foreign Minister Hector Timerman of shielding Iranian officials implicated in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center that killed 85 people.

It was Argentina's worst terror attack in modern history. It has never gone to trial fully. Several pretrials were cancelled amid serious irregularities involving judges and Argentine intelligence staff.

Investigators, who initially said Nisman appeared to have committed suicide, have not ruled out homicide or "induced suicide."
Kirchner, meanwhile, has said she believes the 51-year-old was murdered in a plot to implicate her government in a coverup.

Prosecutor Viviana Fein, who is leading the investigation, said investigators were waiting for ballistics analysis, including a DNA comparison, and to see whether the bullet taken from the body matches the .22-caliber weapon found at the scene.

Fein later told local television that the shot was fired "from a distance no greater than a centimeter" while reiterating her contention that there was no evidence third parties took part in the actual shooting itself.

Viviana Fein? So a Jew gets to investigate the murder/suicide of a Jew prosecutor, investigating the terror attack against Jews in Argentina which Jews from Israel says was committed by Iran, and Israel is the one to gain from getting rid of the Iran friendly Argentine government. I wonder what slant the jew owned media of Argentine is reporting on this?

Who is the elephant in front of the curtain? :)

The only way any of this makes sense is if you apply game theory.

The first thing I think we can conclude form this is there was no evidence to implicate Iran. The investigation into the bombing has been mothballed and superseded by the narrative that this guy was killed or 'suicided' because of the information he was going to reveal. This is baloney. If what the guy had was so important, which the 'suicide' was meant to add conviction to that part of the story, then even his death would not have prevented the information coming out. Cui bonno, there is no evidence.

The decision to 'suicide' this guy was made on the grounds that this would gain the most traction and add plausibility to the false narrative that Iran was behind the bombings while also destabilising a government which was not amenable to Israels interests.

This is how things seem to operate these days. There is narrative that needs to be upheld at all costs and 'suiciding' this guy was the most convenient way to add weight to that narrative. Whether or not the guy is actually dead is another story, for all we know he is sipping champagne, snorting blow and doing hookers in some hotel in Telaviv, or he was collateral damage to protect the narrative.

It makes sense that possibly Kircheners government moved to pronounce his death a suicide because of the implication spelled out above if it was found that he was murdered, fingers were bound to be pointing at her and her administration.

These heebs think they are so clever, but the truth is if you tease out the info and the motives it becomes crystal clear who the culprit is and who stands to benefit.

It seems to me this is the only way this could have played out and the most plausible scenario.

It appears from reading those reports that Nisman repeatedly had failed to provide any evidence previously proving any connection to Iran in the bombing. Also the fact that he left his 15 year old daughter at the airport in Madrid while vacationing in Europe, to go back to Argentina, and immediatelly produce a document stating that Kirchner was involved in a cover up, suggests a)That he had no idea this report was produced b) that this report was given to him with the order to immediatelly go back to Argentina. After announcing the findings of the report he was then murdered to a) protect the source of the document b)imply there was a coverup of the Iranian suspects c) destroy the credibility of the Kirchner government and d) punish Nisman for his gross incompetence in falsifying evidence and closing the deal and e) they probably assessed he would spill the beans sooner or later.

David Duke Show 2015.01.27 (http://grizzom.blogspot.com/2015/01/david-duke-show-20150127.html)

Today Dr. Patrick Slattery filled in for Dr. David Duke, who was in Washington being interviewed for a major news program. Dr. Slattery spoke about recent developments around the world that Zionists are trying to exploit to move forward their supremacist agenda.


http://davidduke.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/GotoNisman-500x282.jpg


He discussed at length a new article by Adrian Salbuchi about the recent death of the prosecutor investigating the 20-year-old bombing of a Jewish community center and Israeli lobby headquarters in Argentina, and put it in the context of Israeli interests in Argentina’s Patagonia region. The prosecutor’s death has caused a crisis in Argentina and has prompted President Cristina Kirchner, usually a pliant Zio-stooge, to attempt a purge of CIA/Mossad moles from the Argentine intelligence services.


He then moves on to France to show how the French Zio-puppet government is exploiting the Charlie Hebdo massacre to clamp down on anti-Zionist dissidents like the comedian Dieudonne.


Finally, he moves to Japan, which is in the midst of a hostage crisis involving two Japanese men presumably held by ISIS. He notes that in all the events there is a common thread of Zionist forces trying to exploit the events to move forward their agenda of repressing individual liberty and national independence, although it is far from clear that the Zionists will get their way. Indeed, the growing awakening around the world to the problem of Jewish supremacism is raising the real possibility that these Zio machinations will actually backfire.


This is a fascinating show that you will want to share widely.

AMIA Argentina attack: Mystery behind public prosecutor Nisman’s death

January 27, 2015 at 1:15 am


By Adrian Salbuchi.



The West’s global war on terrorism certainly kicked off in 2015 with a bang. High-profile events, charged with “unexplained and unexplainable” circumstances, began January 7 with the “Charlie Hebdo Event” in Paris.




Eleven days later, Alberto Nisman, Argentine Public Prosecutor in the case of the 1994 AMIA Jewish Mutual building terror bombing in Buenos Aires was found dead, just as he was about to make public“high-power evidence” against Argentina’s President Cristina Kirchner and her Foreign Minister Hector Timerman for allegedly covering up Iran’s role in the attack.


http://cdn.rt.com/files/opinionpost/37/3d/70/00/argentina-attack-prosecutor-death.si.jpg


Late Argentine prosecutor Alberto Nisman (Reuters / Marcos Brindicci)
Spy versus spy versus spy


The bombed building housed – then and now – not just the AMIA Mutual Association, but also the DAIA – Argentine Delegation of Israeli Associations – the powerful local Jewish lobby working for Israel.


After more than 21 years, this has become Argentina’s most corruption-riddled case, where obscene meddling by Israel’s Mossad, and America’s CIA and FBI included such pranks as planting false evidence of a nonexistent car bomb, censoring other much more likely leads, and paying kickbacks to false witnesses in order to falsely incriminate Hezbollah, either through Syria at first, or Iran since 2006.


The mainstream media – both local and international – has held public opinion ransom to programmed confusion, outright lies and an emotional roller-coasting on an event which left 85 civilians dead. The real behind-the-scenes players have been, however, carefully protected.


One such key player is a powerful Argentine SI (Intelligence Service) agent by the name of Jaime Stiusso who has systematically promoted the US and Israeli version of this event which led to Argentina falsely accusing Iran of that dreadful crime. Counting with full CIA, Mossad and MI6 support and protection, Mr. Stiusso became public prosecutor Nisman’s mentor as the latter systematically and boisterously pointed an accusing finger at Iran ever since he was placed in charge of the investigation in 2004.


The “Iran did it” myth went into high gear under the George W. Bush Administration, as part of its strategy of generalized overrunning of the Middle East after 9/11, and especially after July 2006 when Israel’s invasion and bombing of Lebanon and Hezbollah led to Israel’s being routed (an entire Israeli tank division was decimated by Mr. Nasrallah’s Hezbollah forces trained and armed by Iran).


Iranian connection?

Then, just over two months after Israel’s Lebanon incursion, on September 22, 2006 a private meeting took place at the New York Waldorf-Astoria hotel between then Argentine President Nestor Kirchner, his first lady Cristina Kirchner (National Senator and soon to be president) and Foreign Minister Jorge Taiana, and key powerful Jewish leaders including the American Jewish Committee (AJC), the World Jewish Congress (WJC), the B’Nai B’Rith Jewish Masonic Lodge and its militant arm the Anti Defamation League (ADL).


An agreement was reached in which Argentina would accuse Iran of the AMIA attack, to which end Mr. Kirchner immediately dispatched federal prosecutor Alberto Nisman to the US to “gather the necessary evidence against Iran” from the CIA and Mossad intelligence agencies who clearly had their Anti-Iran axe to grind.


As proof of full US and Israeli satisfaction with Argentina, the World Jewish Congress’s political director Rabbi Israel Singer promptly expressed these organizations’ satisfaction with Argentina’s accusations against Iran, proof that the Waldorf-Astoria agreement was being executed by the Kirchner Administration.


Mr. Nisman immediately accused former Iranian President Ali Rafsanjani and key ministers of masterminding the AMIA attack. However, he was never able produce proper, tenable proof.


He actually requested Interpol to arrest former Iranian ambassador to Argentina, Mr. Hami Soleimanpour in London, his arrest by British authorities quickly ended because Mr. Nisman submitted no proper evidence of its accusations, even making the Argentine government pick up the £200,000 court costs.


Irrespective of this, over the past decade Mr. Nisman became the darling of Jewish entities in the US, Israel and Europe where he regularly visited to brief them on the AMIA/DAIA case. In 2007, he actually went so far as to report on the matter to the Supreme Court… not of Argentina, but of Israel.


Mr. Nisman became very popular and was very much in the media but had just one problem: He just could not put together a proper case with proper evidence against Iran, to the growing concern of US Neocons like Republican lobbyist-legislator Ileana Ros-Lethinen and Israel’s successive ultra-right-wing governments.


The case sank to new depths of confusion when in January 2014, former Israeli ambassador to Argentina during the AMIA attack, Yitzhak Aviram, publicly boasted that “the people who blew up the AMIA building have all been executed by us (Israel).” He was immediately hushed up by Israel.


In sync with the Kirchner Administration, Mr. Nisman continued to blame Iran, but when the Obama Administration came to power in 2009, the US began having second thoughts about Baby Bush’s aggressive Neocon strategy of “taking out Iran”.



With things growing dramatically worse in Iraq, and a growing resistance from Russia and other players to US/UK war-mongering, America became much more moderate on Iran and, through “unofficial and discrete channels” it was made clear to President Cristina Kirchner that maybe the time had come for her to have a chat with the Iranians.


Thus, in January 2013, Argentina announced that it would indeed “start talking” to the Iranians – something it had not done for almost seven years – and quickly a “Memorandum of Understanding”was signed which became local law in March 2013. As part of this, a “Commission for Truth” was to be set up (but wasn’t Mr. Nisman and his Mossad and CIA controllers supposed to have in their power all the “damning truth and evidence against Iran”?)


Neocons in the US and Israelis went ballistic with rage. To add insult to injury, last December President Kirchner cleaned out the top brass at the local SI Intelligence Agency, specifically throwing out US/UK/Israeli operator-agent Jaime Stiusso.

Mr. Nisman was supposed to be on holidays touring Europe with his 15-year-old daughter during all of this month of January. However, suddenly whilst visiting Amsterdam “somebody there” seems to have ordered him to fly back immediately to Argentina. So fast that he asked his wife to pick up their daughter at Madrid Airport where he dropped her off and flew on to Buenos Aires.


Upon arriving, he produced out of his hat as if by magic, a 350 page dossier case accusing President Kirchner and her (also Jewish) Foreign Minister Hector Timerman of “covering-up” Iran. He was about to present this during a special emergency summer session in Argentina’s Congress at 3pm on Monday, January 19, but he may have realized that his case was still-born and had no chance whatsoever of holding up.


Anyway – alas! – he (or “somebody”) conveniently killed him sometime early Sunday, January 18.


Nisman’s case and the ensuing cross-questioning would have probably thrown the whole AMIA/DAIA investigation back to square one. For a second time, as already happened in 2003 when the case for a“Syrian connection” fell completely through ending up with the prosecution of Juan Galeano, the former federal judge hearing the case, and where even one of DAIA’s former presidents – Ruben Beraja – ended up in jail for helping to bribe a shady car-dealer by the name of Carlos Telleldin to the tune of $400,000, so that he would incriminate the Buenos Aires Police which was supposed to produce a false lead, in turn leading back to the elusive “car bomb.”



That “car bomb” was never found save for a small bit of metal of a van engine “found” by an Israeli military intelligence officer “helping out” in the AMIA building rubble right after the 18th July 1994 bombing which, “luckily” had the vehicle serial number on it.


Sounds a bit like Mohammed Atta’s intact passport “found” in the WTC rubble? Or maybe the masked Charlie Hebdo terrorist’s dropping his ID card in Paris a couple of weeks ago?


If Mr. Nisman’s flawed case were unmasked then the beehive would once again be stirred and that represented something very dangerous for the US, Israel, local and international Jewish lobbies that have fought so hard to put the blame on Iran. And that a far more plausible lead should be investigated: a possible Israeli connection.


Israeli connection

During the early nineties, there was sordid internal fighting over Palestine and Israel’s illegal settlements, between Israel’s left-wing, and the rising ultra-fundamentalist racist right-wing.


When the AMIA/DAIA HQ was blown-up by a never-to-be-found ”car bomb,” Israel was governed by Yitzhak Rabin’s Labour Party which was honestly seeking a peaceful two-state solution with the Palestinians. In July 1994, Rabin even allowed PLO leader Yasser Arafat to return to Palestine from exile, just 18 days before the AMIA/DAIA building was blown up. Other events pointing to this internal fighting occurred at the time, but a huge conflict finally came to a head less than 18 months after the AMIA/DAIA attack, when Prime Minister Rabin was assassinated at a public rally in Israel in November 1995.


Who was the assassin? A Muslim terrorist? No. Some whacko neo-Nazi? No.


PM Rabin was assassinated by one Yigal Amir, a young ultra-right wing Israeli militant linked to the Shin Beth (which Rabin had downsized) and the illegal Jewish settlers’ movement inside Israel.


The political results for Israel basically boiled down to the peace-seekers never coming back to power in the country, and for Netanyahu, Sharon, Olmert, Barak, Lieberman, Livni, Feiglin and their friends running Israel ever since.


Thus, the Palestinians never got their sovereign state. Instead, they keep getting Israel’s bombs, attacks, humiliations, and that 8-meter tall, 800 kilometer long Wall Israel built around their country.


Within this global backdrop, the “logic” behind the AMIA/DAIA attack takes on a very different dimension: an internal war where the Israeli ultra-right sent the peace broking left “an offer they couldn’t refuse,” probably engineered by clandestine groups inside or even above Mossad+CIA+MI6+some Blackwater-like black ops player.


Echoing Godfather Don Corleone, these dark perpetrators were suitably briefed to “make it look like an Iranian-sponsored Hezbollah car bomb.” It just didn’t work out quite the way they expected.


Busybody Nisman was coming too uncomfortably close to stirring the bee hive. Maybe that’s what led to his death.


Just as the police commissioner investigating the Charlie Hebdo event was “suicided” on the night of that attack; or as London Underground electrician Jean Menezes, who may have “seen something” in the days prior to the July 2005 London Transport attacks was “mistakenly” gunned down by London Police only a few days later.


Clearly, the “War on Terror” has come home to Argentina. Again.


As we write, the powerful local Jewish lobbies DAIA and AMIA are yelling and whining that they “fear a third terror attack against Jewish interests in Argentina,” conveniently media-fed by the “unexplained disappearance” of an Argentine Army anti-tank missile earlier this month.


The US Center for Security Policy just published an article in The Washington Times calling on the US and EU to impose “sanctions against Argentina.”



Presidential elections will be taking place later this year in Argentina, and practically all the candidates – with favorites Daniel Scioli, Mauricio Macri, and Sergio Massa leading the list – are toeing the politically correct line, a fact that is most consistent considering that they regularly visit and report to the Rockefeller-Negroponte-William Rhodes “Americas Society,” and regularly pay homage to the World Jewish Congress, American Jewish Committee, DAIA, AMIA and other local and international Israeli lobbies.


Finally, for Ms. Kirchner there are two lessons: (1) when ultra-right wing Israelis and Neocons fight amongst themselves, do not stray into the crossfire, and if you do pick one side then stay there; because (2) “Rome does not reward traitors.”

A very long article.
Jews abound in it.

The August 23 article from Perfil, based on information reportedly provided by US financial investigators to their Argentine counterparts, detailed nearly $600,000 in suspicious deposits made to Nisman’s New York bank account between 2012 and 2014.

Officials from the UIF had previously speculated that some of that deposits could have originated from the “holdouts,” a group of investors who have refused Argentina’s debt restructuring offers, and who stand to make billions of dollars if they prevail in the related legal dispute that is currently playing out in U.S. courts. One of the most prominent “holdouts” is NML Capital, owned by billionaire hedge fund manager and Republican Party power broker Paul Singer.

Since Nisman’s death, lobbying groups with ties to the “holdouts” have funded efforts to promote his work on the AMIA case. While the prosecutor was alive, these organizations spent millions of dollars on a campaign to “do whatever we can to get our government and media’s attention focused on what a bad actor Argentina is,” in the words of one group’s executive director.

An independent investigation by LobeLog did not reveal any definite links between the “holdouts” and the depositors identified by various news reports. However, the timing of some of the transactions does appear to coincide with important developments related to the debt dispute.

What a clusterfuck! Iranians, Israelis, terrorbombing, freezing of assets of Argentinian top politicians accused of obstruction of Justice, suicide by a gun he didn't own, with no gunpowder residue on his hand...
Sounds like something the Clintons would do
