Why the coverup? Who is carrying water for Hizballah in the Bulgarian government, and why? And if Hizballah has people it can count on to cover for it in the Bulgarian government, does it have any such people in governments in Western Europe and North America?
“Hezbollah role unmentioned in charges for 2012 Bulgaria terrorist attack,” by Yonah Jeremy Bob and Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post, January 31, 2018:
The Bulgarian state prosecution has decided not to charge Hezbollah with involvement in the 2012 bomb attack at the Burgas airport that killed five Israelis and their Bulgarian bus driver and wounded 32 other Israelis, The Jerusalem Post has learned.
Instead, the prosecutor indicted the two men allegedly involved in the attack as if they were terrorists or even regular criminals who acted without connection to an organization. The word “Hezbollah” does not appear in the indictment.
In addition, the indictment does not mention standard terrorism offenses such as “acting as part of a terrorist organization” or connecting the murder offense to terrorism. Instead, it makes a brief reference to Bulgarian Penal Code Section 108 (a) regarding disturbing the public order.
Under Section 108(a), anyone who by causing a “disturbance or fear among the population” or who threatens or forces “a competent authority… to perform or omit part of his/her duties, commits a crime,” in addition to other crimes they may have committed.
Sources close to the case say that when the Bulgarian prosecutor on the case was confronted with these anomalies, he claimed that no one provided him with evidence demonstrating Hezbollah’s involvement.
This, however, is in direct contradiction to evidence that came to light immediately after the attack. Bulgaria’s interior minister at the time, Tsvetan Tsvetanov, said in 2012, “We have established that the two [accused] were members of the militant wing of Hezbollah.” He also said, “There is data showing the financing and connection between Hezbollah and the two suspects.”
In 2013, Tsvetanov’s successor, Tsvetlin Yovchev, told reporters before a commemoration ceremony, “There are clear signs that say Hezbollah is behind the Burgas bombing.”
Also in 2013, responding to a discussion about Bulgarian-Israeli relations on Bulgarian National Television, then-foreign minister Nikolay Mladenov said that the government would not have issued a statement linking Hezbollah to the Burgas attack if it did not have solid evidence.
Evidence produced by Bulgaria’s investigation into the Burgas bombing even led to the European Union placing Hezbollah’s armed wing on its blacklist, a move that was supported at the time by Mladenov, today the United Nation’s special coordinator for the Middle East peace process.
The Post contacted Bulgaria’s Foreign Ministry, the State Agency for National Security, Interior Ministry, Justice Ministry and Prosecutor’s Office for a response to allegations that the prosecution was covering up Hezbollah’s involvement in the attack and ignoring evidence referred to by its ministers.
In response, Milena Petrova from the Foreign Ministry said on behalf of the prosecution that “the content of the indictment is completely within the competences of the prosecutor who is in charge of the case. Neither Tsvetan Tsvetanov, in his capacity as then-interior minister, nor any other ministry or incumbent minister pay whatever regard to the decisions and legal acts of the judiciary.
“The executive and the judiciary powers are separated and independent of each other. The prosecutor’s office is part of the judiciary of the Republic of Bulgaria,” the statement concluded.
The statement does not deny the existence of evidence of Hezbollah’s involvement….
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
It means the so-called evidence presented to the prosecutor is so weak or even concocted that It cannot sustain the case against Hesbullah.
Note:the prosecutor has to evaluate the evidence presented against thé background of the allegation against a person to See on the face of it if a jury could say yes that person has committed an before the prosecutor could indict a person for prosecution before a court of law under common law system applicable in Bulgaria. It is a professional job, not for every idiot to say this man should be indicted for prosecution. It is possible if it is under obnoxious racist zionist legal system dictated by whims and caprices of zionists,not under impartial judicial system operating in Bulgaria.

Muslims never do anything wrong, so could never have been involved.
gravenimage says
Hizb’allah is not a “person”–it is a Jihad terror group. How can Ibrahim itace muhammed think we don’t know this?
And the two perpetrators–Malid Farah and Hassan al-Haj–are clearly Muslims, and were targteting Jews.
Ibrahim itace muhammed has himself said that he looks forward to taking part in the genocide of the Jews, so his denial here is ridiculous.
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
Satan (holy spirit) worshiper Gravenimage, check the dictionary, it is your Masters the fascist evil zionists Who fit the définition of terrorism, not Hizbullah Who are freedom fighters.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Check YOUR dictionary mithrist muslim man, your freedom fighters fight for fraudulent fascist freedoms formed from fetid fatwas founded feebly for filthy fatwa feeding flabby flagellating fundamentalists.
All those ‘F’s were just for you Ibrahim.
LeftisruiningCanada says
That should read “fiqh feeding flabby flagellating fundamentalists”.
Sorry for the fauxpas .
roger woodhouse says
‘One mans freedom fighter is anothe mans’terrorist’thus it always was.Problem we have here is that the miguided fool itace mohamad is too blinded by his evil religion he cant tell the difference here.His hatred of the Jews after being brainwashed since childhood into his unatural state has removed his abilty to see rationally just how rediculous he has become.Sad really.
brenrod says
baloney, iran and hezbullah paid them off just like they paid off argentina to cover up their terror there…. bulgaria must go down now.

My speculations would nominate Turkey, which is now welcoming the Muslim Brotherhood & its spawn & which frequently brags about its ability to influence events in Europe via its Diyanet and other government and nominally non-government links. Oh and did I mention that, in addition to its military adventures in Syria/Kurdistan, Turkey’s PM has told the world that he covets Thrace, generally considered to have been ethnically and politically Greek since the beginning of history (despite having been subjugated by the Ottomans, like Bulgaria, for centuries).

I want JW readers to notice one thing about Muslims:
Muslims, wherever they are a minority in any infidel land, always make sure that their issues and demands always make the headlines almost on a regular basis. It is always about them versus the others. For this, they will indulge in various controversies and rake up issues even if one is not there… They will twist and turn things and create chaos… (See what Linda Sarsour is doing regularly). In this manner they make sure that their issues are always in front of the queue., esp their never ending untenable demands. And this telescopes exponentially during election time where Muslims make sure that their issues are one of the main planks on which the elections are fought by the opposing political parties. No doubt Islamic immigration becomes such a big issue over all the nations of the Greater West. Remember, I have said that Muslims punch much above their actual population percentage by a factor ranging anywhere from 3 to 5.
And as the Muslim numbers / enclaves build up in the infidel land and as more of them worm into positions and offices of power, this occupation of the media space increases and there is a always a constant tension in the air as Muslims start getting offended for even the flimsiest of things or come up with false accusations and conjure false hate crimes against them. This very tension then slowly but steadily starts exploding into riots / violence / mass murders / crime / terror with a sickening regularity and starts undermining the long term confidence of the original infidel inhabitants of the land. And this is the beginning of the end: the beginning of a never ending toxic downward spiral which inevitably leads to unspeakable anguish and pain and which ends with either the bifurcation of the land into Islamic and non-Islamic parts or even the total takeover by Islam. This is the standard way Islam takes over an infidel land when it cannot seize it outright by warfare like it did in times of old.
infidel says
And I would also like to add that the dhimmi left in the infidel lands aid them in no small way (either knowingly or unknowingly) in making sure that Muslim issues are always at the forefront of the day2day issues of the host infidel land.
The only way, as far as I can see, is stop giving importance to their day2day tantrums and telling them to fall in line with the rest and ask them do their share in the development and progress of the land that they have come escaping to.
