3 Israeli-Arabs charged with espionage
Dummies...The kidnapping conspiracy charge stems from a plan to kidnap a Baka al-Gharbiya man they mistakenly believed was Bassam Adel, a Syrian Mig-23 pilot who defected to Israel in 1989 with his fighter bomber. After his landing, which took Israeli authorities by surprise, Adel immediately requested asylum and has been living in an undisclosed location in Israel ever since. The three men are also suspected of making a number of videos of IDF facilities. They also reportedly shot footage of a power plant in Hadera and tracked the movements of Israel Navy submarines in Haifa. Syrias Foreign Minister Walid Muallam on Thursday night protested at the arrests, which he said were unjustified, and urged the UN to intervene over the affair. Geez, why don't you just stamp "Guilty" on their foreheads... Posted by: tu3031 2010-08-06 |
