November:</STRONG> Fresh foreign leads in the FBI’s anthrax investigation
point to the involvement of one or more German or Austrian biological or
chemical researcher with pro-Nazi leanings, part of a complicated South American
web linked to the Hizballah and fugitive Nazi communities, some of whom are also
connected to Iraqi military intelligence. <BR><SPAN

<DIV><FONT size=2><SPAN class=720082123-11112001> </SPAN>One or a group of
these researchers are thought to have entered the United States and found jobs
with American industrial laboratories or research institutes, setting up
clandestine private biological warfare labs in their spare time. <BR><SPAN

<DIV><FONT size=2><SPAN class=720082123-11112001> </SPAN>One of those leads
turned up, <B>DEBKA<I>file</I></B> reveals, when on October 10 a group of 10
terrorists was caught in Mexico City on its way to assassinate Mexican president
Vicente Fox and carry out a mass strike in the Mexican Senate. They were found
by US and Mexican investigators to be a Lebanese Hizballah gang, preparing to
celebrate the first month’s anniversary of their ally’s “feats” in New York and
Washington by hitting one of America’s foremost allies on the continent. The
terrorists reached Mexico from the Brazil-Uruguay-Paraguay triangle, fresh from
training at the hands of German neo-Nazis. They could not say if their
instructors were linked to Arab or Islamic intelligence agencies, but a
description of one of those instructors rang a bell: he sounded like one of the
suspects long sought in connection with the Hizballah bombings of the Israeli
Embassy and Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires in 1993 and
1994. <BR><SPAN class=720082123-11112001><FONT color=#0000ff

<DIV><FONT size=2><SPAN class=720082123-11112001> </SPAN>Imad Mugniyeh, the
notorious hostage-taker and bomber of Beirut in the 1980s, is now believed to
have masterminded those strikes. Currently a senior commander of Al Qaeda,
Mughniyeh is thought to have developed neo-Nazi contacts in Latin America
through local Lebanese expatriate businessmen. Various agencies, including the
FBI, are now probing his possible complicity in the bioterror attack on America,
in view of the evidence of his involvement in the September 11 atrocities in New
York and Washington and his links to neo-Nazi elements in South
America. <BR><SPAN class=720082123-11112001><FONT color=#0000ff

Iraqi military intelligence is also known to be very active in Latin
America in the Arab and Nazi expatriate communities.<SPAN

last Thursday, the US president’s national security adviser, Condoleezza
Rice, administered her sharp rebuke to the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat,
for “hugging” the Hizballah, she certainly had the Hizballah gang in Mexico City
in mind</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
