Soviet documents ‘show Abbas was KGB agent’; Fatah decries ‘smear campaign’

Israeli researchers: Notes from USSR archivist who defected indicate PA president was working for Soviets in Damascus in 1980s while Putin’s current Mideast envoy was stationed there

September 7, 2016.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas was a Soviet spy in Damascus in the 1980s, Israel’s Channel 1 television reported Wednesday, citing information it said was included in an archive smuggled out of the USSR.

According to Channel 1’s foreign news editor Oren Nahari, the famed Mitrokhin archive, kept by KGB defector Vasily Mitrokhin, revealed that Abbas was a Soviet mole in Damascus in 1983.

The documents — obtained by Israeli researchers Isabella Ginor and Gideon Remez — purportedly show that Abbas, code-named Krotov (mole), was involved with the Soviets while Mikhail Bogdanov, today Vladimir Putin’s envoy to the Middle East. was stationed in Damascus.

Bogdanov was caught in a diplomatic tussle earlier this week after trying to broker a summit between Abbas and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Moscow, who both claimed a willingness to meet while decrying the other for allegedly refusing. ..."

It wasn't his dad, it was his "uncle", the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Amin Al Husseini.

AMIN AL-HUSSEINI

I stand corrected, but still, close enough.

Yeah, I seem to remember that the relationship was unclear and that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was Arafat’s uncle. But what is clear is the two conspired to rid the Middle East of Jews. Once they had conquered the Soviet Union, the intention was for the German army to sweep into the Middle East and clean out the Jews.

The takeaways I got from the event:

German security forces were total keystone coppers. Getting caught in their won cross fire. If modern German forces are still anything like this, Europe never has to fear Germany
