Man arrested in the Arrigoni murder case suspected of collaboration

Palestine Information Center – 17/04/2011

GAZA — The murder of Italian activist Vittorio Arrigoni raised the serious question as to who stands behind such a gruesome act, especially after the Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu declared he has plans to thwart solidarity with the Gaza Strip ”at any price”.

The Palestinian security awareness website Majd has revealed a few surprise discoveries as the case unravels and after several men were taken into custody over suspected involvement in the abduction and murder.

It has come to light that one of the suspects that has been arrested is also suspected of collaboration and has a number of violations on his list, while others appeared naïve.The website said that one of the men got orders to abduct and kill Arrigoni on the internet.

Analysts have not ruled out that Israeli intelligence was behind the crime, as the Israeli occupation faces a crisis in not being able to stop pro-Palestinian activists from going to Gaza and the publicity that accompanies such solidarity activities. That is in addition to growing western popular awareness regarding the facts about occupation which is effectively blowing the occupation’s cover of “legitimacy”.

The “group” responsible for the kidnapping and murder of Arrigoni killed him before the deadline it made for the government to release some of the “group’s” elements, a step which implied premeditation.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Ismail Haneyya is scheduled to meet with the foreign press at the Council of Ministers in Gaza on Sunday to talk about Arrigoni’s death and the steps the government has taken to pursue the case.

The crime stirred widespread popular anger amongst Palestinians in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. They have declared that the crime only serves the Israeli occupation.

  1. This is the 3rd straight senseless violent act in Palestine meant to discredit Palestinian civil society and to portray Palestinians as senseless, crazed animals unworthy of independance or statehood and the reason why Israel needs to maintain it’s occupation of Palestine.

    The 1st was the brutal murder of the Jewish settler family and their children.

    The 2nd was the drive-by murder of the Palestinian art/dance troupe director.

    The 3rd was the murder of the Italian peace activist.

    All meant to destabilize Palestine an

    • I’m guessing that your comment was leading to the point that it looks an awful lot like a coordinated campaign to delegitimize the Palestinian cause.

  2. this makes sense — it was strange that the news media blamed the murder on a group linked to al qaeda — any time al qaeda gets the blame, my suspicions come alive
