Recently, a longtime aide to Seif, Mohamed Ismail, also confirmed to the New York Times that the Musa Sadr delegation had killed and their bodies thrown into the sea.

During the following week, the essence of some of this information, and why the Sadr delegation was killed became known to Amal officials in Lebanon as well as to others in the region. According to Hannibal Gadaffi's former lawyer Borusha Khalil, they included then prominent Shia leaders Mohammed Baqir al-Sadr, Mohammad Mahdi Shamseddine and others.

No doubt more details will emerge especially when the likes of Seif al Islam, Maoammar Gadaffi's son goes public which he has agreed with this observer to do.

Today those who perpetrated Musa Sadr hoax are under increasing pressure in Lebanon and Iran to tell the truth about what they know and when they knew it.
