Abu Abbas Dies In US Custody -
Is He Mabus Of Prophecy?

From Mike Nelson
3-10-4



The prophetic Quatrain No.62, Century No. 2 of Nostradamus is a reflection of our nowadays.
 
It states:
 
"Mabus then shortly will die, there will come a horrible devastation of people and animals.
Then suddenly the vengeance will be seen when the comet runs. Four hundred hands (500 days as each hand has 5 fingers) there are going to be widespread thirst and hunger."
 
Some suggest MABUS was M. ABBAS. If a comet appears soon, things will become even more
interesting...
 
 
Abu Abbas Dies In US Custody Says Pentagon
 
 
WASHINGTON (AFP) - Abu Abbas, the Palestinian who led the 1985 hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruise ship in which a wheelchair-bound American hostage was killed, has died in US custody, a Pentagon spokesman said.
 
"Initial reports indicate he died of natural causes," said Bryan Whitman, the Pentagon spokesman. "Medical efforts to revive him were unsuccessful and autopsy will be performed."
 
 
Abu Abbas, whose real name was Mohammed Abbas, died Monday, the spokesman said.
 
US forces took Abbas into custody in Iraq on April 14, following the fall of Iraqi president Saddam Hussein.
 
 
Whitman would not comment on where he was being held at the time of his death, but officials indicated he was in US custody in Iraq.
 
 
"Most people suspect it was a heart attack," a defense official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. "It's likely the cause of death would have been cardiac failure given his medical history."
 
 
It was not immediately known what would happen to his remains or whether his next of kin have been notified.
 
 
He was born in Syria in 1948 to a Palestinian family from the Haifa area of what is now Israel.
 
 
He headed the Palestinian Liberation Front, which assaulted the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro in 1985 and killed a wheelchair-bound American hostage, 69-year-old Leon Klinghoffer, who was thrown into the Mediterranean.
 
 
Abbas was sentenced in absentia in Italy to five life terms for his role in the hijacking.
 
 
The Palestinian leadership argued Abbas should have been released under a 1995 immunity accord made between the Palestinians and the Israeli government. But US officials said Abbas was not covered by the accord.
 
 
Klinghoffer's family said in a statement in New York that they had been denied justice by Abbas's death.
 
 
"With his death, justice will be denied," Klinghoffers' daughters Ilsa and Lisa said in a statement. "The one consolation for us is that Abu Abbas died in captivity, not as a free man."
 
 
Klinghoffers' family had spent 18 years seeking his capture and eventual extradition to the United States to stand trial.
 
 
"Abu Abbas was a vicious terrorist who was responsible for countless deaths of innocent people -- men, women and children -- throughout the Middle East," the family statement said.
 
 
"His trial and conviction also would have sent a clear message to terrorists everywhere that, if they kill an American citizen, they can run but they can't hide," it added.
 
Abbas had long lived in exile in Baghdad, although under the terms of an interim bilateral accord between Israel and the Palestinians in 1995, he was allowed to return to the Palestinian territories for PLO meetings after renouncing calls for the destruction of Israel in 1996.
 
 
Apart from the spectacular hijacking of the cruise ship, the PLF carried out a number of high-profile raids, including an attack on a seaside hotel in Tel Aviv in 1990, which prompted the United States to cut ties with the PLO. The contacts were resumed with the 1993 Oslo accords.
 
Abbas also devised unconventional methods of attack, including the use of hang-gliders.
 
In 1979, the PLF had attacked a residential home in Nahariya, near the northern border with Lebanon, in which four people were killed.
 
Having jumped onto the peace camp bandwagon, he said on several occasions he wanted to distance himself from his violent past, although in October 2000, at the start of the Palestinian uprising, he pledged to resume attacks on Israel.

Jeff-
I remembered this link after reading about M. Abbas. There apparently will be a rare comet event shortly, per the quatrain about Mabus.
