DEBKAfile Exclusive: Al Qaeda used Israeli mobile phones for its triple suicide strike at Dahab,
2006-05-25
The Egyptian interior ministry disclosed this week that the al Qaeda bombers who killed 120 people in Sinai in two years were trained by an unnamed Palestinian “extremist religious” group in the Gaza Strip. Knock Knock Wake Up Call It was the first time Cairo had linked al Qaeda with Palestinian terrorists.

DEBKAfileÂ’s counter-terror sources report from the investigation of the Dahab attack last month which left 24 dead that the Gaza-based facilitators, the suiciders and al QaedaÂ’s Sinai network used Israeli Pelaphone mobile phones as their primary means of intercommunication.
Israeli mobiles... this is good as Israel was prepped for it. They mine and do more with their cell systems than the NSA is accused of doing...

An instrument was found in the debris of the Dahab attack. It was believed at first to belong to one of the Israeli holidaymakers at Dahab. But when Israeli security examined the recorded calls at the phone company, they found the three suicide bombers led by Youseff Mohrab had used it for conversations from Gaza.

Note they automaticly examined the RECORDED CALLS of any cellphone they find at the scene!.
This means CDLs and recorded calls. CDLs giving full phone info. There is enough info in CDL associated with a call to aim a JDAM... and I bet the folks back in GAZA were talking on a cellphone too so if they could have caught it in real time instead of datamining they could have put a JDAM right down the planer's throats.


The Egyptians named two Gazan Palestinians as the al Qaeda teamÂ’s collaborators: Abu Suleiman, who provided money and mobile phones, and Maged al-Deri, who trained them in the use of bomb-making and firearms.
Friends and faimily of the calls to the n'th degree with a full database of all the calls to listen too. A really quick search all the links just "being" there. heh

The phones turned out to have belonged to the Pelaphone company, Tel Aviv.

DEBKAfileÂ’s sources reveal that Gaza was also the source of the bombersÂ’ pay - $1,500 plus ten thousand Egyptian pounds apiece for blowing themselves up at target. With their pay and explosives, they set out from Gaza to spend several days before the attack in El Arish in northern Sinai, in the care of a Palestinian Bedouin called Tamer Nuseirat. Before the operation, they left the money with their families.

Bet they called Tamer to be waiting for them and bet he called somebody. Bet Israeli agents start pressing the families for the the money so they won't be considered targets.... This is really excelent.. Now if the NSA/FBI would apply it to the Daley Machine and stuff in Louisiana..

#2  that the reports are that pelaphones were used will confirm the feverish conspiracies that Mossad was behind the bombings

of course, assuming the reports are correct, it would have been Paleos buying the phones from Israelis (probably from Arab Israelis), but facts don't stop conspiracy theories.
