A report in the British Sunday Times, claims Israel killed Imad Mugniyah by placing a bomb in the head rest of his car. According to the report, Mugniyah was instrumental in rebuilding Hizbullah’s capability following the Second Lebanon War and had  rearmed Hizbullah with Iranian made rockets capable of hitting Tel Aviv andf carrying a chemical warhead.

The British newspaper added that at the time of his death last Tuesday night, the 45-year-old terrorists, was working with Syria on planning terrorist attacks against Israeli targets to “avenge the Israeli strike on what was believed to be a secret nuclear site in Syria last year.”

The night he was killed, Mugniyah had attended a party at the Iranian cultural center in Damascus and shortly after 10:30PM decided to go home. Minutes later his car blew up in the Damascus streets killing him instantly.

While the report fails to supply any concrete evidence supporting its claims that Israel was behind the killing, it states that on Thursday Prime Minister Ehud Olmert met with Mossad chief Meir Dagan in a one on one meeting to congratulate him on the outcome.

Meanwhile, another British newspaper – The Sunday Express – printed a different version of how the Mossad nailed the arch-terrorist.

According to its report, three Mossad agents who entered Syria as tourists from Athens and Rome with Iranian passports loaded a car they had rented with explosives and detonated it beside Mugniyah’s Mitsubishi Pajero jeep.
