Suicide Bomber in Eilat: Blame al-Qaeda

Just in the nick of time, as the US, Israel, and the “moderate” Mahmoud Abbas were about “to renew long-stalled peace talks,” a suicide bomber attacks a bakery in the Israeli resort town of Eilat.

Just in the nick of time, as the US, Israel, and the “moderate” Mahmoud Abbas were about “to renew long-stalled peace talks,” a suicide bomber attacks a bakery in the Israeli resort town of Eilat.

Knesset Member Arieh Eldad, characterized as “right-wing” by Israel Insider (Eldad is a Revisionist Zionist, that is a Jabotinskyite, a would-be ethnic cleanser of the Moledet stripe), said he hoped the attack would “bring sanity back to all those who call for negotiating with Hamas and strengthening Abbas,” who is of course entirely unacceptable, even if a pathetic groveler.

As well, the suicide bombing casts a pall over a glimmer of hope, however dim, displayed at the globalist forum in Davos, Switzerland, when a “special panel on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict” was held, resulting in “Israeli and Palestinian negotiators [calling] for direct peace talks,” according to RedBolivia. “The Israeli-Palestinian conflict and other Middle East problems … top the agenda at this year’s Davos conference,” in other words, the global elite are pushing for a solution, if even wholly lopsided in Israel’s favor, as usual.

DEBKAfile, the propaganda arm of Mossad, wasted little time declaring Mohamed Faisal al-Siksik, the alleged bomber, as an “al-Qaeda” operative by way of Jihad Islami. Of course, it is not diabolical enough this group is said to be “mainly under the influence of the Iranian Islamic revolution and the growing Islamic militancy in the region,” according to Middle East Facts, never mind Palestinians are Sunni Muslims and Iranians Shia.

“Two months ago, DEBKAfile’s political sources disclose, the government was warned that a Jihad Islami team had crossed in to Sinai and hooked up with an al Qaeda cell. This joint network very likely prepared the bomb for the bomber Siksik and guided him across the border to Eilat…. The explosive charge the Eilat bomber carried was packed with up to 8 kilos of explosives, but no shrapnel fragments. In its Sinai attacks, Al Qaeda has used large bombs consisting of explosives but no shrapnel, whereas Palestinian terrorists habitually lace their bombs with steel shards to maximize casualties.”

“Foreign intelligence organizations had speculated al Qaeda had a role in the bombings but neither the Egyptian authorities nor any authenticated al Qaeda document has established the Sinai group has any foreign links,” Reuters reported last November, not that the scribes over at DEBKAfile read Reuters.

More likely, they read the Moonie Times, aka the Washington Times. The “Palestinian link to al Qaeda has become more than mere sympathy and friendship. Al Qaeda has now set its sights on Israel and on an incremental takeover of the Palestinian cause. This is the next phase of its campaign to dominate the Muslim world and re-establish an Islamic Caliphate,” two fantasists, Louis Rene Beres and Clare M. Lopez, wrote for the newspaper founded by “humanity’s Savior, Messiah, Returning Lord and True Parent,” Sun Myung Moon.

All of this recalls the phony “al-Qaeda” cell sent into Palestine by Mossad, a fact long ago scrubbed down the memory hole. Members of this “faux-Al Qaeda,” Justin Raimondo noted back on December 9, 2002, “were given weapons (most of them didn’t work) and money provided by ‘Palestinian collaborators with Israel,’ three of whom are in a Palestinian jail. According to PLO ‘preventive security’ chief Rashid Abu Shbak, some of the money ‘was transferred from bank accounts in Jerusalem or Israel,’” and it was apparently “too easy to trace the cell-phone calls and emails back to Israel, as well as Germany and Lebanon.”

Raimondo continues:

“By way of deception, thou shalt do war”—a principle the Israelis have always lived up to. Juxtaposed against the mounting evidence—a recent series of reports in the German and British media depict Mossad agents in the U.S. living “next door to Mohammed Atta”—the exposure of this “false flag” operation draws the curtain on the terrorist enigma. This demonstrates that an Israeli connection to the worst terrorist atrocity in our history is not an “urban myth,” as one Justice Department spokesperson put it, but a sinister and increasingly likely possibility….

“By way of deception, thou shalt do war”—a war for survival, as the Israelis see it, that must be waged against the West as well as the Muslim world. As long as Americans see the “war on terrorism” as the two-sided Manichean struggle described by George W. Bush—”you’re either with us, or with the terrorists”—their anger and frustration can be mobilized in support of an all-out war on the Arab nations. But if Israel had some foreknowledge—or even a connection with—Al Qaeda in America, and not just the Palestinian “branch,” then American rage will be directed at another target.

Indeed, we can speculate as well that it is this putative “war for survival” that unleashes meaningless and futile suicide bombers into Israel—especially after a glint of hope, no matter how remote or fragile, surfaces—and thus squelches for the moment the unimaginable, at least for recalcitrant Zionists: a small, clumsy baby step toward peace with the possibility of justice for the Palestinians.

As Arieh Eldad and Moledet understand, indeed Likud and Kadima as well, such a horrific outcome, a nightmare for ethnic cleansing settlers, will never be allowed, even if it means millions of people must die and the blood and treasure of the United States, the perpetual sugar daddy, must be squandered, as it now is in Iraq and will soon be in Iran.
