History 04/03/20 Adolf Eichmann: how Mossad kidnapped from Argentina of Nazi war criminal
One of the most successful operations of the secret service of Israel – Mossad – is the capture of one of the senior officers of the Gestapo – Adolf Eichmann.
the Policy of the newly formed Israel was not initially peaceful. It originated surrounded by hostile Muslim States, so the Israeli leadership decided to declare the country as a strict and unforgiving resentment of the state.
Israel was created may 14, 1948, following a decision by the UN. Since the end of the Second world war was only three years. In the hearts of the inhabitants of the country, formed from escaped the Holocaust of the Jews, was severe pain from the loss of loved ones who died a horrible death in German concentration camps. One of the first principles of the new structure “Mossad” was the call that no Nazi perpetrators of genocide do not escape punishment.
the Main man from among to avoid punishment of criminals caught in the development of “Mossad”, was Adolf Eichmann. His career in the National socialist German workers party he started in 1932. A few years later, Eichmann became the founder of the anti-Semitic movement and the author of the “final solution of the Jewish question”.
After the fall of Berlin in may 1945 he managed to escape to South America, where his trail was lost. More than 10 years for the “Mossad” to calculate the Nazi. The secret service of Israel’s fortune helped.
the organization Itself is rooted in 1937, when he began a clandestine repatriation of Jews from countries where they were threatened with destruction from the growing Nazism. Then the members of the “Mossad”, who built a variety of routes for the escape of the Jews, acquired a large contact base of sympathizers around the world. Later, these contacts have been extremely useful for the activities of “Mossad” is the intelligence agencies.
Information about the locationhojdenie Eichmann entered the Israeli spice of Jew Lothar Herrmann, who moved to the Argentine capital Buenos Aires. His daughter began to meet with a certain Nicholas Eichmann, who did not hide their Nazi views. On hearing this, Herman compared the data and realized that we are talking about the son of an escaped German officer who is looking for Israel around the world.
the Information came to the Creator of the “Mossad” of Isera of Harel. After reviewing the materials, he appealed to the Prime Minister of Israel David Ben-Gurion and received permission to develop a special operation to capture Eichmann.
In 1958, for confirmation and detailed study of the situation in Buenos Aires arrived two agents of “Mossad”. It turned out that the address received from Herman, no one by the name of Eichmann does not live. As it turned out, the officer changed his name and lived as Ricardo Klement. Eichmann noticed surveillance and disappeared. On his quest took about a year.
Finally it was established that Ricardo Klement family is still in Buenos Aires. He and his family settled on Garibaldi street. The house was decorated in a kind of Veronica of Libel Catarina de fikhman. Besides the fact that her last name was very similar to the name of Eichmann (Eichmann-Fichmann), wife of Eichmann in her girlhood bore the name of Liam.
Agents of “Mossad” became on-to watch over the house. They managed to get a photograph of the head of the family, which were immediately sent to Israel. Analysis of the data confirmed the picture really captures one of the ideologists of the Nazi Adolf Eichmann.
the Operation to capture the Gestapo developed and personally oversaw Harel. He specially arrived in Argentina along with 30 soldiers of the “Mossad”: the 12 – man SWAT team, the other provided support. Special agents on fake passports took more than ten apartments in different parts of the city.
the Implementation of the operation began in may 1960, when Argentina arrived the representative of Israel to the UN, Abba Eban, the. The aircraft, delivered the diplomat, the Gestapo planned to smuggle into Israel.
Eichmann was arrested by agents on may 11, when he was returning home from work. SWAT team twisted it and shoved in the back seat of the car, taped his mouth. Ironically, Eichmann did not show any resistance.
the Gestapo brought in one of the apartments where the Mossad finally confirmed his identity. Eichmann did not play up and immediately confessed.
half the battle was done, but the task was not less difficult to transport Nazi in Israel. For this was invented the legend: one of the agents allegedly knocked down by a car, he was in the hospital, and after a little stronger, I decided to leave the country. His passport photo was changed to a photograph of Eichmann. Before leaving, the Gestapo did a shot of tranquilizer, so its appearance is quite consistent with the mind of the victim in the accident. He and the employees of the “Mossad” were dressed in the form of a flight of the company of Israel, and portrayed the members of the crew. In the end, any difficulties at security checkpoints at the airport have arisen, and the Nazi officer was loaded into the plane.
the Investigation of the case against Eichmann lasted two years. The indictment included 15 items, among which was the mass murder of Jews, theft of their property, as well as the illegal expulsion of the poles.
the Trial of Adolf Eichmann took place on April 11, 1962. He was convicted of crimes against humanity and sentenced to the Supreme penalty – the death penalty. On may 31, Eichmann was hanged. His body was cremated, taken outside the borders of Israel and scattered over the Mediterranean sea.
