New information on Ron Arad
You can be sure that whenever there is news about missing Israeli navigator Ron Arad, I will mention it here.
Whether dead or alive, it has been looking pretty hopeless for us ever finding out what happened to Arad. The news about him has really dried up in recent years. Israel even announced recently that there are now almost no efforts to continue looking for Arad, due to the lack of any new information over such a long period of time...
Ynet reported yesterday that a Kuwaiti newspaper mentioned that new information about Ron Arad is about to come to light in the coming weeks. I looked for the original article, and actually found it (no easy task)!!! The newspaper that issued the report is called Al-Seyassah, and the report can be found here: http://www.al-seyassah.com/AtricleView/tabid/59/smid/438/ArticleID/267831/reftab/76/Default.aspx

If you do not read Arabic and need it translated, here it is after pumping it through Google Translate:
Sudden developments will soon reveal the fate of the four Iranian diplomats and Ron Arad, 30 years after they disappeared in Lebanon
As almost always, Google Translate does a horrible job of producing a well-translated readable article... the point of it though is easily understood - surprising new information will soon be coming to light. His fate, if true, is tied to the Iranians. The report is about 4 Iranian diplomats who went missing in 1982. This information supposedly comes from the brother of one of the missing Iranian agents - this brother has served as Foreign Minister of Iran and is considered one of the few people who actually knew information about Arad when he was FM.
Hopefully it is true, and hopefully we will soon find out what happened to Ron Arad.

تطورات مفاجئة تكشف قريباً عن مصير الديبلوماسيين الإيرانيين الأربعة ورون آراد بعد 30 عاماً على اختفائهم في لبنانبعد مرور نحو ثلاثين عاماً على اختفائهم في لبنان
تطورات مفاجئة تكشف قريباً عن مصير الديبلوماسيين الإيرانيين الأربعة ورون آراد
"السياسة" - خاص:
كشفت مصادر استخباراتية غربية لـ"السياسة" عن تطورات مفاجئة ستحصل خلال الأسابيع القليلة المقبلة من شأنها أن تفك طلاسم لغزين استخباريين بعد ما يزيد على ربع قرن من الغموض الذي لفهما.
وقالت المصادر إن أول اللغزين هو اختفاء الايرانيين الاربعة في بيروت منذ العام 1982, وهم محسن الموسوي القائم بالأعمال الإيراني في بيروت آنذاك وأحمد متوسليان قائد "الحرس الثوري" في لبنان آنذاك, وتقي رستغار مقدم سائق السفارة الإيرانية, وكاظم إخوان الصحافي في وكالة الأنباء الايرانية الرسمية "ارنا".
أما اللغز الثاني فيتعلق بمصير الطيار الاسرائيلي رون آراد الذي أسقطت طائرته فوق الأجواء اللبنانية العام 1986 ومازل مصيره مجهولاً حتى اليوم.
وأكدت المصادر أنه سيتم التوصل إلى كشف اللغزين بشكل لا يقبل الشك أو التأويل للمرة الأولى, من خلال تحديد ما جرى مع المفقودين الخمسة منذ اختفائهم أو مكان وجودهم الحالي في ما إذا كانوا أحياء, أو مكان دفنهم في ما إذا كانوا أمواتاً.
وأوضحت المصادر, التي رفضت الإفصاح في هذه المرحلة عن مصير الخمسة, ان التقدم الملحوظ في حل اللغزين جاء إثر معلومات جديدة وقيمة وصلت إلى أحد أجهزة الاستخبارات الغربية بشأن مصير الطيار الإسرائيلي رون آراد, مشيرة إلى أن المفاجأة كانت في أن هذه المعلومات مصدرها أحد أفراد عائلة محسن الموسوي أحد المفقودين الإيرانيين, وتحديداً من شقيقه حسين الموسوي الذي كان في دائرة أحد القلائل في إيران الذين يعرفون مصير الطيار الإسرائيلي, حيث شغل في الفترة التي تزامنت مع سقوط الطيار في أيدي الميليشيات الشيعية آنذاك, منصب مستشار وزير الخارجية الايراني لشؤون الشرق الاوسط والعالم العربي.
وبحسب المصادر, فإن المعلومات التي بحوزة حسين الموسوي, الذي يشغل حالياً منصب مدير مركز البحوث العلمية والدراسات الستراتيجية في الشرق الاوسط, وصلت إلى الجهات الاستخباراتية الغربية عن طريق عدد من الوسطاء, وتم التأكد من صحتها بعد فحصها بشكل معمق, رغم علامات الاستفهام التي دارت بشأنها, في ظل الخشية من أن تكون رغبة موسوي بمعرفة مصير شقيقه, دفعته لتمرير معلومات غير دقيقة أو غير مؤكدة.
وأضافت المصادر أن جهاز استخبارات غربياً يعتزم المساهمة بمعلومات حساسة تتعلق بمصير الإيرانيين الاربعة, حصل عليها إثر نشاط استخباراتي مكثف كان يقوم به في لبنان في الثمانينات من القرن الماضي, ولم يتمكن حتى الآن من استخدامها أو الإفصاح عنها لأسباب تتعلق بحماية الطريقة والأشخاص الذين حصل بواسطتهم على هذه المعلومات, إلا أن وفاة أحد أهم مصادر هذا الجهاز في لبنان أخيراً, أتاحت المجال لاستخدام هذه المعلومات.
وأكدت المصادر أن التقارب بين إيران والدول الغربية يشجع على إمكانية التوصل إلى صفقة في هذا الموضوع, حيث تُدرس الآن الطريقة المثلى لعرض هذا الموضوع على الإيرانيين والإسرائيليين, بشكل يضمن إظهار الطرفين بأنهما رابحان من هذه الصفقة.
