Yes, I did recall correctly that this POS has been associated with the bombings of the US Embassy and the US Marine Barracks and French barracks that slaughtered so many back in 1983. I only wish this scumbag could have suffered a long slow death, but at least he (apparently) is gone. Just a good thing we never waterboarded him, though, now that would have been truly unacceptable. /s

Imad Mugniyeh became Hezbollah’s star recruit, reporting directly to Ali Akbar Mohtashemi-Pour, Iran’s ambassador to Syria. His terrorist pedigree began with a bang when he organized the April 18, 1983, bombing of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut that killed 63 people, including Robert Ames, the CIA’s top Middle East operations officer, and many of his best agents.

In October 1983, Mugniyeh was back at work. This time, with Iranian and Syrian help, he plotted the twin suicide truck-bomb attacks in Beirut that took the lives of 242 U.S. Marines and 58 French troops.

For many years Mugniyeh’s personal involvement in those early bombings remained obscure. It wasn’t until he kidnapped the new CIA station chief to Beirut, William Buckley, in April 1984 that the U.S. intelligence community began to get a fix on him.
