Joint statement from AMIA and DAIA: “The court case determined Iran’s responsibility”

In a joint statement, the entities Asociación Mutualista Israelita Argentina (AMIA) and The Delegation of Argentine Israelite Associations (DAIA) rejected the Mossad report published last week by The New York Times and highlighted the cause being carried out in our country “determined the responsibility of Iran, former officials of that country and Hezbollah in the planning and execution of the massacre.” AMIA and DAIA, central organizations of the Argentine Jewish community, highlight and recall that the judicial case being carried out in our country for the terrorist attack perpetrated on July 18, 1994 against the headquarters of Pasteur 633, determined the responsibility of Iran, former officials of that country and Hezbollah in the planning and execution of the massacre, that left the painful balance of 85 people killed and more than 300 injured,” the statement began. And he adds: “The judicial file accredits multiple pieces of evidence and contains numerous evidences that, derived and verified through various sources, allowed to establish the role of Iran and its active participation in the decision, organization and financing of the terrorist attack, of which it has already been 28 years.” “It is essential to respect and give continuity to the evidence contained in the case and to the conclusions reached by the Argentine Justice, which were later confirmed by Interpol with the issuance of its red alerts, so that the international arrest warrants that weigh on the accused remain in force, so that they can be tried in our country with due constitutional guarantees,” demand the organizations within the communiqué dated Monday, July 25. The report by Mossad indicates that the terrorist attacks carried out in Buenos Aires were organized by a Hezbollah cell without the help of Argentine officials or Iranian agents. The information provided by The New York Time was immediately rejected by the government of Israel and the director of Israel’s National Center for Public Diplomacy, Lior Haiat, endorsed that the fundamentalist regime in Tehran was behind the attacks. “Iran had a connection with the attacks on the embassy of the State of Israel and the AMIA, Iran gave the orders, Iran financed the two attacks, Iran was even the one who chose the targets of the two attacks, and authorized the attacks on the Embassy and the AMIA headquarters,” Said Haiat. In turn, they stressed that the attempt to make differentiations, either by interest or ignorance, between Iran and Hezbollah only generates “confusion in public opinion”,since there is no doubt that both “are part of the same terrorist matrix”.
