CONTROL OF TUNISIA [1], where the role of the former Tunesian Governor
of Sousse, Tunisia's Ahmed Bennour (picture [2]) is highlighted. Well
sometimes there is a aha moment, i think this is it :

France: a possible accessory to Mossad's political assassinations
Voltaire Network | 13 April 2010
http://www.voltairenet.org/article164923.html


Shimon Peres and Nicolas Sarkozy

  "According to a probe conducted by Tunisian daily Dounia El Watan
   and also reported by Lebanese Al-Manar TV, the 20 January 2010
   assassination of Hamas leader Mahmoud Mabhouh in Dubai would have
   required a far heftier team than the one already implicated by the
   United Arab Emirates.

   Besides the killers, a reconnoitering team led by a former Tunisian
   security operative, Ahmad Bannour, was also involved.

   Mr. Bannour is reportedly living in exile in France where he
   supposedly constituted an intelligence cell acting in the mutual
   interest of both the Israeli and French services.

   Ahmed Bannour fled from Tunisia after his spying activities on
   behalf of the Israeli Mossad were discovered. Taking advantage of
   his responsabilities within the State apparatus, he had organized
   the bombing of the Fatah headquarters in Tunis on 1 October 1985 -
   which Yasser Arafat (a.k.a. Abou Ammar) escaped - followed, on 16
   April 1988, by the assassination of another Palestinian leader,
   Khalif Wal-Wazir (a.k.a. Abou Jihad).

   Under cover of a French company controlled by him, Ahmed Bannour
   apparently detailed two French "businessmen" plus a team of
   technicians to Dubai to negotiate an elevator contract. On this
   occasion, the blueprints of the hotel where Mahmoud Mabhouh
   supposedly booked in, including the hotel security system,
   allegedly fell into the hands of French intelligence agents.

   Furthermore, Mr. Bannour's French company has been subpoenaed in
   a case currently pending with the Lebanon Military Tribunal. It
   serves as a cover for the admission to Beirut of Tunisian and
   Egyption nationals operating for the Mossad. They were planning an
   attack against the radio of Sheik Hussein Fadlallah and the
   assassination of Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayed Hassan Nasrallah.

     Reply from M. Ahmed Bennour

     Claiming to base yourself on an "investigation published in the
     Tunisian newspaper Dounia El Watan", you make libellous
     statements about me which undermine my honour and are, above
     all, devoid of any foundation or even a grain of truth.
     
     The unbridled pursuit of sensationalism does not authorize the
     publication of falsehoods; it does not constitute a hallmark of
     reliability and, in most cases, turns out to be deleterious due
     to the serious nature of the allegations being spread.
     
     With specific reference to your article, what evidence do you
     have of any involvement on my part in the assassination of
     Palestinian leaders? Where are the reports of the police
     investigation conducted in Dubai after the assassination of Mr.
     Mahmoud Mabhouh? What is this elevator company that I was
     supposed to be managing? What is "this espionage case pending
     before the criminal court of Lebanon"? Its number? The details
     of the case?
     
     At best amateurish and misinformed, at worst with the intention
     to harm, you have transcribed the words of mercenary journalists
     in the pay of the Ben Ali regime. This cabal, which has been on
     my heels for nearly 25 years, is relayed by a subservient press
     funded by public money, serving a regime blacklisted by all
     respectable NGOs and repudiated by Western democracies to
     exploit the Palestinian conflict in order to settle scores with
     its political opponents.
     
     For if you had taken the trouble to do a serious investigation,
     you would have noticed that:
     
     1) During the raid against the Palestinian headquarters on
     October 1, 1985 in Hammam Chatt, I was not in charge of security
     in Tunisia, but Ambassador in Rome since September 1984, i.e. 13
     months prior to this cowardly attack, until I left the post in
     July 1986.
     When I exercised the functions of Tunisian Minister of the
     Interior from April 1980 to May 1984, no Palestinians were
     harassed and even less murdered. And the most senior Palestinian
     officials, dead or alive, know better than anyone my commitment
     to their cause and are aware of the extent of my contribution to
     the noble Palestinian cause.
     The head of security at the time of the Hammam Shatt attack of 1
     October 1985, was Mr. Ben Ali. And this is an indisputable fact.
     
     2) I never fled Tunisia. At the end of my assignment as
     ambassador to Rome in July 1986, I moved to France, where I live
     in voluntary exile and have been since the coup on November 7,
     1987.
     
     The assassination of Palestinian leader Abu Jihad on April 16,
     1988 in Sidi Said Bous, a neighbourhood located less than 1000
     meters from the Presidential Palace in Carthage, certainly
     benefited from Tunisian complicity (see the article the Israeli
     newspaper Maariv dated July 4, 1997). But the real questions
     that have to do with the identity of the individuals or parties
     who delivered the plans of Abu Jihad's villa to the Mossad,
     who cut the telephone lines near the Presidential Palace, who
     proceeded to empty Sidi Bou Said of every living soul on the
     night of his assassination, following extensive police raids.
     All these factors combined enabled the Mossad squad to
     perpetrate their cowardly assassination of Abu Jihad leader
     undisturbed. Again, these are indisputable facts which
     contradict the most far-fetched theories and dastardly comments
     distilled by a corrupt dictatorship on its last legs to wash its
     hands of its own crimes.
     According to a survey published by the aforementioned Maariv
     newspaper, the Mossad squad benefited from the complicity of
     some senior Tunisian officials at the time.
     
     Mr Ben Ali promised to order an inquiry into the killing. To
     date, the current Tunisian regime has refused to release the
     slightest detail on the results of this "famous investigation"
     to either the Palestinian leadership or to Tunisian,
     Palestinian, Arab and international public opinion.
     
     How could I have helped the Mossad when I had not been living in
     Tunisia since September 1984 and have been in voluntary exile in
     France since September 1986?
     Finally, cooperation between the Tunisian government and the
     Israeli secret service exist, but it didn't start until what
     is shamefully called the "new era", that is after the November
     1987 coup.
     During this period, an Israeli interest office was set up in
     Tunis. Since then, political, security, economic, trade and
     finance relations have continued to flourish and strengthen in
     the greatest secrecy and hidden from the view of public opinion,
     both Tunisian and Arab.
     
     Ahmed Bennour
     Former Governor of Sousse (1972-1974)
     Former Minister of Defence (1974-1977)
     Former Minister of the Interior (1980-1984)
     Former Ambassador to Rome (1984-1986)
   |                                                                 |

Ahmed Bennour's last role, that of Former Ambassador to Rome, is highly
intruiging, and certainly highlights your Vatican connection [theory] to all of
this.
