The following article was published in Al Ahram newspaper (Egypt's main
paper):
 
Still after  the tragedy hit the Egypt Air  767 Boeing a 112 kilometers
off  the coast of Nantucket, Massachusetts. Many  questions come to mind
about  the cause of the airplane's sudden "fall" after its  explosion at
11,000  feet elevation after 40 minutes of its take-off from Kennedy
International Airport in New York.
 
 A Great Mystery:
 
 This tragedy, the worst in the aviation history of  Egypt and the worst
of  the century, has been shrouded with a great mystery  more than any
other  similar tragedies. What made it even more mysterious  is the
confusing and  strange conclusions reached by the American  authorities
about the details  of the incident, which puzzled the intellect of many  in the
investigation  and police fields.
 
Many neutral investigators are almost definite that the tragedy happened
as a result of "sabotage".  They ask: What has hit the plane (in the tail)
without leaving any trace or evidence of the cause?

They also ask about the nature of "the sabotage": was it something that
was done from outside the plane while flying or if it was actually
something "implanted" inside the plane.  Whatever the cause, there has to be
someone who caused the incident.

Some investigators used the "know who would benefit from the act to know
who did it" in their research. Meanwhile, others searched closely in a
series of events that came before, during and after the bodies of all 217
victims ended up in the bottom of the ocean or eaten by its sharks and
whales. So those events became givings that lead them to draw a sketch of
the culprit, or , at least show his fingerprints.

16 coincidences worth contemplating:

Here is a "series" of events or "coincidences" as in the language of
investigators:

1. There were 34 generals of different ranks from the Egyptian Armed
Forces on board the plane. Among them was a general who has a Doctorate in
atomic sciences, and more than 20 pilots who successfully completed training in
operating Apache helicopters that were sold recently to Egypt. Also on
board were other generals who successfully completed training in launching
the famous American Patriot missiles. The training of all those generals
lasted 3 years and has cost Egypt $3 billion, which Egypt paid in full.
2. Israel vehemently denounced the training program of those generals upon
their arrival in the US 3 years ago, and Israel called the training
program "a threat to Israel's security".

3. Cairo started a big campaign to rid the region of weapons of mass
destruction. The campaign has targeted mainly Israel since it is the only
country in the region that possesses such dangerous weapons.

4. Israel started a campaign accusing Egypt of seeking to modernize its
armed forces, and of possessing missiles that threaten the security of
Israel, especially so because the army generals who came to train in the
US will be exposed to the secrets of the joint American-Israeli missiles
and jet fighters technology.

5. Egyptian defense minister, Muhammd Hassan Tantawi, announced last
October that war with Israel is not ruled out. He also announced that
Egypt therefore is continuously building its armed forces to be in a state
of readiness.

6. One day before the tragedy, the American authorities provided hotel
accommodation in a 3-star hotel for the airplane crew, which constitutes a
violation of the simplest norms of international aviation, where the crew
is usually accommodated in the airport hotel or in a 5-star hotel.

7. On the same day, a crew of pilots and flight attendants of Israel's
airline (El Al) checked in the same hotel with a general form the
Israeli Intelligence (Mossad) who was in charge of the crew's luggage and
personal belongings.

8. Just a few hours prior to the incident, one of the Egypt Air flight
crew complained to the hotel security that someone has sneaked into his
room, because he noticed signs of someone's attempt to open his suitcase
by breaking the locks. But the hotel security assured him of no foul play
as long as nothing was missing.

9. The day of the incident, Edward Mcglauglen, an American Jew, who is a
vice president of an American civil agency was one of the passengers of
Egypt flight form Los Angeles to New York City in route to Cairo. But when
the plane landed in New York City, Mcglauglen refused to continue his
journey to his final destination (Cairo) for fear of possible "planting of
a bomb" by "one of the passengers" at its first stop (New York City).

10. The same day of the incident, the American authorities opted to take
the flight crew's luggage from the hotel through the halls to the plane
itself. Meanwhile the Mossad general opted to take the luggage of the crew
of Al A'al flight to the Israeli plane himself. But the luggage of the
crews of both Egypt Air and Al A'al ended up being taken from the hotel to
the airport in the same car that took the Mossad general to the Israeli
plane.

11. Prior to the Egypt Air flight departure, the American authorities have
inspected the plane for 3 hours, which is a very unusually long time in
aviation norms. Also it has been reported that airport security have not
given similar attention to any other plane that day.

12. After 40 minutes of the flight's departure, contact with the plane was
lost over the Edward American naval base, which is known to have
anti-aircraft missiles, some of which are ready to be launched
automatically by the mere sensing of an object passing over at a certain
elevation.

13. After the incident, 3 eye witnesses testified to the investigators
that they saw the plane on fire as it was falling down. Fox News also has
confirmed  in its own investigation of the incident that the plane had
exploded in mid air before its fall according to what was seen on the
radar screens.

14. The American investigation team reported that the plane fell down from
33,000 feet to 19,000 feet in 40 seconds, "which, according to aviation
experts, is a speed equal to a free fall due to earth gravity, which makes
it evident that the plane has fallen down in pieces and not as one body.
Because the body of the plane is designed in a way that makes it
impossible for the body of the plane to descend at a speed in access of
7,000 feet per second". Aviation experts also add that "even if the
engines of the plane stopped working, it would still be possible to land
the plane at the nearest airport".

15. After 10 hours of the incident, a member of the American investigation
team announced that they have found the "black box" that records the
secrets of the events in the "last moments" just before the plane's fall.
However, the next day, the American official spokesman denied finding the
"box" and said that the investigation team is still searching for it!

16. There were 34 generals from the Egyptian army on board "the plane",
which is a violation of Egyptian army rules that "prohibit" more than 3
generals to be on board the same flight, domestic or international, for
security of the generals. This decision was reached in 1978 after "the
downing"  in the Western Sahara of the flight that had Ahmad Badawi on
board (in which 12 generals have died). At that time the fingers pointed
to "the Israeli enemy" and the American intelligence.
 
So all these events make up 16 "coincidences" not just 2 as required by
Agatha Christy, the author of police investigation stories. Therefore, the
coincidences suggest, one way or another, that the Mossad was after the
incident.
