A secret FBI document from 1977 said the murderers were two Arab
students who entered the US from Canada with either Lebanese or Cypriot
passports, and were supported by friends and sympathizers who
sheltered and supplied them with a car and guns.
In
another top-secret document, the CIA wrote that “most probably” a
Fatah-Black September cell (an organ of Yasser Arafat’s PLO) was
responsible for the attack. Nevertheless, the investigation reached a
dead end, and the file was closed in 1978.
Against this background, the Alon sisters began to develop a strong
belief in conspiracy theories, which were further fed by Israeli Liora
Amir-Barmatz, a television director at Channel 1. She produced a
documentary called “Who Killed Daddy?” which aired a few years ago.
The film provided not one iota of evidence to verify the crackpot
theory, but those skeptical of it were excluded from expressing their
arguments. I was interviewed by the director for nearly three hours;
Amir-Barmatz used a 15-second clip.
Unfortunately, the Alon sisters stick to their obsessive belief – like
those who continue to toss around wild theories about JFK’s
assassination. They won’t abandon their conspiracy theory that their
father was murdered on orders from the US and Israeli security
services.
