Crimes Solved

For years since the Iraqi occupation, astute observers have been wondering about the wave of killing of Iraqi academics and intellectuals. In fact, last year articles appeared entitled, "Who's killing Iraqi intellectuals?," and the Brussels Tribunal even sponsored a seminar on the assassination of Iraqi intellectuals in Madrid, that explored these issues. But it appears that the mystery has been solved, and the Mossad, as well as US forces have conspired to destroy Iraq's education capacity. Weazl has not made this up, but rather the article can be found here:

The massacre of Iraqi academics: Mossad killed 530 Iraqi scientists

Special Report

Numerous reports for many months have stated that with collaboration from American occupation forces, Israel's espionage apparatus, Mossad, slaughtered at least 530 Iraqi scientists and academic professors.(The Bangladesh Today )

Assassinations of Iraq academics in Iraq never existed prior to April 2003. Persistent Israeli hit squads against Iraqi scientists had been active in Iraq since April 2003, but the latest chapter was uncovered on Tuesday, 14 June 2005 by the Palestine Information Centre which, citing a report compiled by the United States Department of State and intended for the American President, stated that Israeli and foreign agents sent by Mossad, in cooperation with United States, to Iraq, killed at least 350 Iraqi scientists and more than 200 university professors and academic personalities.

According to the report, which was referred to the U.S. president George W. Bush, Mossad agents had been operating in Iraq with the aim of liquidating Iraqi nuclear and biology scientists, among other scientists, and prominent university professors.

That was after the U.S. failed to persuade those scientists to cooperate with or work for it.

"Israeli commandos had been operating on Iraqi territory for more than a year, the focus of their activities being the assassination of Iraqi scientists and intellectuals. The Zionists resorted to the large-scale assassination campaign after the failure of American efforts that started immediately after the American occupation of Iraq, aimed at attracting a number of Iraqi scientists to cooperate and go to work in the United States," The Palestine Information Center quoted the report as saying.

"Some Iraqi scientists were forced to work in American research centres; however, the majority of them refused to cooperate in certain fields and fled the U.S. to other countries", it further stated.

The Pentagon agreed with the suggestion of Mossad, which believed that the best way to get rid of those scientists was to "physically eliminate them".

The American security service provided Israel with complete biographies on the Iraqi scientists and academics to facilitate killing them, the report said, adding that the Mossad campaign targeting Iraqi scientists is still underway. This is excerpt of a presentation made by Dr Ismail Jalili titled "Plight of Iraqi Academics", in which he details Mossad crimes against the Iraqi scientists.

{The presentation was made during Madrid International Conference on the Assassinations of Iraqi Academics on 23-24 April 2006.}

Just yet another example of the genocidal war crimes that should have many leaders and warmongers in jail.
