Argentina - Alberto Nisman - Laboratory Analysis - Nisman DNA Only


LAHT Article

Argentine Probe Finds Only Prosecutor’s DNA on Gun
BUENOS AIRES – The only DNA found on the gun that killed Argentine prosecutor Alberto Nisman belonged to the deceased, the person directing the investigation said Friday.

Nisman was found fatally shot on Jan. 18, hours before he was supposed to brief Argentina’s Congress about his accusations that President Cristina Fernandez and other officials sought to conceal the involvement of Iran in a deadly 1994 terrorist attack targeting a Jewish organization in Buenos Aires.

The prosecutor died of a single shot to the temple, fired at point-blank range from a .22-caliber pistol that was found under his body in the bathroom of his apartment.

Nisman, who had a 10-person police security detail, borrowed the gun from a colleague.

Laboratory analysis determined “categorically” that all of the DNA found on the gun, ammunition cartridge, bullets and shell-casings belonged to Nisman, prosecutor Viviana Fein said Friday in a statement.

At the time of his death, Nisman was seeking to indict Fernandez, Foreign Minister Hector Timerman and five other people in connection with his probe of the car-bomb attack that left 85 dead at the offices of the Jewish organization AMIA.

Investigators have labeled the case a “suspicious death.”

Fein said her office’s technical staff have informed her that the stairways of Nisman’s apartment building do not have security cameras, while the camera mounted in the elevator was out of service the day of the prosecutor’s death[Gee, that was handy.]

She said she took statements on Friday from the people who manage the computer network in the office of the special prosecutor for the AMIA case.

Nisman, 51, was laid to rest Thursday at a Jewish cemetery on the outskirts of Buenos Aires.

The Argentine government rejected on Friday a U.S. lawmaker’s call for an international enquiry into Nisman’s death.   [International inquiry?  US lawmaker call?  Something's going on here.]

Argentina “is an autonomous and independent country,” Cabinet chief Jorge Capitanich said during his daily press briefing, calling Sen. Marco Rubio’s proposal the expression of an “imperial vision” that “ignores the principal of national self-determination.”

Rubio, chairman of the Senate Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere Affairs, sent a letter Thursday to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, saying that he was “deeply concerned about the ability of the government of Argentina to conduct a fair and impartial investigation.”

The senator’s call for an international investigation is an “unwarranted intrusion appropriate to an imperial attitude that represents the most recalcitrant Republican right,” Capitanich said.

The charges against Fernandez and Timerman were based on intercepts of telephone conversations about efforts “to erase Iran from the AMIA case,” Nisman’s office said Jan. 14 in a statement.

The government wanted to eliminate any obstacle to forging closer trade and economic ties with Tehran, the prosecutor said.

Timerman – himself a member of Argentina’s Jewish community – reacted angrily to the accusations, labeling Nisman a liar and saying that the prosecutor allowed himself to be unduly influenced by Jaime Stiuso, recently fired as chief of operations for the intelligence service.

Many in the Argentine Jewish community believe the AMIA bombing was ordered by Iran and carried out by Tehran’s Hezbollah allies.

Both the Iranian government and the Lebanese militia group deny any involvement and some have pointed out that the accusation relies heavily on information provided by the CIA and Israel’s Mossad spy agency, both with an interest in blackening the reputation of Tehran.

SENATOR MARCO RUBIO

Marco Rubio
Roman Catholicism
Parents = Cubans who had immigrated to USA 1956
Pedro Victor Garcia (maternal grandfather)
immigrated legally to the US in 1956
returned to Cuba to find work in 1959
On returning to USA in 1962 without a visa, US embassies in Cuba being closed, an immigration judge ordered him deported.
US immigration authorities = used discretion to allow him to remain in the US without a visa.
"In 2012, The Associated Press concluded that Garcia might have been undocumented for four years, from 1962 to 1966."

"His parents left Cuba in 1956, during the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista."
"Rubio's previous statements that his parents were forced to leave Cuba in 1959, after Fidel Castro came to power, were incorrect."
"The real essence of my family's story is not about the date my parents first entered the United States. Or whether they traveled back and forth between the two nations. Or even the date they left Fidel Castro's Cuba forever and permanently settled here. The essence of my family story is why they came to America in the first place; and why they had to stay."
"According to The Washington Post, Rubio's "embellishments" resonated with many voters in Florida, who would not be as impressed by his family being economic migrants seeking a better life in the U.S. instead of political refugees from a communist regime."

While studying law, Rubio interned for US Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen
  • Ileana Ros y Adato was born in Havana, Cuba.
  • Ros-Lehtinen was raised Catholic and is now an Episcopalian.
  • Ros-Lehtinen's maternal grandparents were Sephardic Jews, originally from the Ottoman Empire, who had been active in Cuba's Jewish community.
  • Ros-Lehtinen supported President George W. Bush's surge policy in Iraq, a supporter of Israel and supports continued sanctions against Cuba.
  • Ros-Lehtinen opposes US support to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East and the Palestinian Authority. She describes herself as a "strong supporter of Israel" and regards the US relationship with Israel as "critical to the national security interests of both nations".
  • Ros-Lehtinen has stirred controversy by calling for the assassination of Cuban Leader Fidel Castro.

In 2014 Rubio asked Pope Francis "to take up the cause of freedom and democracy" in Cuba after helping negotiate the release of Alan Gross.


COMMENT

Didn't expect investigations to come up with anything.

How's the elevator camera being conveniently out of order?

Washington Post, Newsweek and others are running a story on the CIA and Mossad assassination of Imad Mugniyah:

Newsweek story re: Imad Mugniyah
http://www.newsweek.com/imad-mugniyah-cia-mossad-303483
Mugniyah is allegedly the Hezbollah criminal 'super-villain' who is accused of committing the AMIA bombing and a host of other attacks, including attacks on US military and the 1992 Israeli Embassy bombing in Argentina.

The Newsweek story is based on US intelligence sources:
"according to former U.S. intelligence officials interviewed by Newsweek"
While this is interesting and topical, in that (a) Imad Mugniyah's son was killed in a recent Israeli attack and (b) AMIA bombing Prosecutor Alberto Nisman has mysteriously been bumped off in Argentina, it is also interesting from the perspective that CIA and Mossad cooperation is in the media now, coming from former US intelligence sources.  The current media spotlight on this may serve to reinforce the alleged Hezbollah and AMIA link  and, under the circumstances (father and son side-by-side burial, both killed), could perhaps also be seen as waving a red flag to a bull, trying to maybe provoke a Hezbollah reaction -- ie baiting Hezbollah.  Either that, or I'm reading way too much into these affairs.

It's also interesting that USA's Marco Rubio is simultaneously trying to get some mileage out of the Nisman development in Argentina, by taking the Nisman affair out of Argentina.

Cuba's Going Down




Total overdose of information.  Winding down.

Big news for a while has been the Sony Hack.  Don't know what the big deal is, save that it's amusing.

CUBA

Other big news is US moving towards being 'pals' with Cuba.

US plans to reopen its embassy in Havana & US to significantly ease restrictions on travel and commerce. >> http://bernews.com/2014/12/cuba/

OBAMA: "today we are making these changes because it is the right thing to do".

Anyone who believes the US does anything because it's the 'right thing to do' is an idiot.  There's got to be some agenda here.

It appears the Vatican is still involving itself in politics.
Vatican has long supported US-CUBA "normalisation of relations"  -- http://www.aleteia.org/en/world/article/the-churchs-long-standing-interest-in-normalizing-us-cuba-relations-5881514080337920

Sounds like USA getting foothold in Cuba through manipulation of religion / Catholic Church.

US politicians speak out against closer ties with ‘Castro regime’ - http://on.rt.com/7wfprw

Cuba Opposed US politicians:
>John McCain
>Lindsey Graham
>Jeb Bush
>Robert Menendez
>Ted Cruz
> House Speaker John Boehner also jumped on-board criticising US move to 'normalise' relations with Cuba
>Florida Gov. Rick Scott is sharply criticizing Obama over his plans to normalise relations with Cuba --  http://www.bradenton.com/2014/12/17/5537543/gov-scott-rips-president-obama.html

All this opposition is for show.  Don't be coy, guys, you know you want Cuba

Meanwhile, Ecuador celebrates the decision to free x3 Cuban heroes from US prison & looks forward to new regional relations --  http://www.telesurtv.net/english/news/Ecuador-Celebrates-Freedom-of-Cuban-5-20141217-0049.html

Call me cynical, but I think Obama might be hustling some Jewish votes for the Democrats.
 UNNAMED US SPY:

Cuba is releasing unnamed US spy imprisoned for nearly 20 years

UNNAMED US SPY TO BE RELEASED:

1.  provided information:  identification & conviction of Ana Belen Montes (former senior analyst at the Defence Intelligence Agency).  Montes arrested in 2001 on charges of spying for Cuba -  serving a 25-year prison sentence.

2. helped prosecute:  retired State Department intelligence analyst Walter Kendall Myers & his wife, Gwendolyn, convicted in 2010 of spying for Cuba & are serving life in prison without parole.

Unnamed US spy:

Instrumental in US Cuba spy convictions:
>Ana Belen Montes - 25yrs sentence
>Walter Kendall Myers - 30yrs sentence
>Gwendolyn Myers (wife) - 30yrs sentence
Another Blogger's view (akahnnyc): 
  • US goal in Cuba is eradication of Cuban Revolution & destruction of independent sovereign socialism.
  • US embassy in Havana is a post for WA spooks to guide hand-picked neo-liberal "reformers" to seize control of a neutered Communist Party.
  • Cuba be advised to stand by for a "sick, twisted Communist Disneyland" & no healthcare, education or social safety net.
  • Will Cuba allow quicksand of imperialism & capitalism to envelop them, by not assuring future of socialism in Cuba?
  • Slippery slope destruction of socialism:  US empire may count future successes as children beg in the streets outside Sheraton hotel in downtown Havana.

USA - charge d’affaires:

It looks as though "Democracy in the Americas" has been lobbying for US policy change, from a humanitarian angle  >>  http://www.democracyinamericas.org/cuba/

And it looks like CIA is all over Cuba:

US focus in Cuba is to continue to improve human rights & democratic reforms, with the stated aim of:   political, economic & social freedoms.  Same humanitarian pretext.  No word on any other aims, of course.

PREVIOUSLY UNIDENTIFIED US SPY TRADED, NOW NAMED:

Rolando “Roly” Sarraff Trujillo cryptography expert for Cubans - http://www.matthewaid.com/post/105516524231/our-man-in-havana-rolando-roly-sarraff-trujillo
"only thing that saved him from execution was the fact that both his parents were retired senior intelligence officers"
... and maybe the fact that you can't trade dead spies. Although I'm curious why US would want him.  Not sure what practical use a busted spy is.  After 20 years in prison, the cryptography skills might be a bit rusty.
Terrorism

Obama has initiated review of  Cuba designation as a state sponsor of terrorism. [John Kerry]

US Cuba Recipe:
* NGO - Humanitarian Spin
* Religious leverage
* Media / Communications influence
* CIA meddling
* USAID spies
So what does this mean?  Looks like this is the beginning of the end.  Che Guevara died for nothing. 

No cause is worth dying for.
