Mahmoud Abdel Rauf al-Mabhouh ((アラビア語:محمود عبد الرؤوف المبحوح); 14 February 1960 – 19 January 2010) was a senior Hamas military commander and one of the founders of the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military affiliate of Hamas. He is remembered for his assassination in Dubai (widely seen as an operation of Mossad, the Israeli foreign intelligence agency) and the diplomatic crisis his assassination triggered over Israelis allegedly using fraudulent foreign passports to carry it out. As an al-Qassam Brigades operative, Al-Mabhouh was a terrorist involved in terrorist activities targeting Israel, including the abduction and killing of two Israeli soldiers in 1989. In more recent years, al-Mabhouh had assumed an important role procuring weapons for the al-Qassam Brigades. In 2010, journalists Yossi Melman and Dan Raviv alleged that Mabhouh had played a key role in forging secret connections between the Hamas government in Gaza and the Al-Quds Force of the Revolutionary Guards in Iran. Al-Mabhouh was killed in the five-star Al Bustan Rotana Hotel in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, on 19 January 2010, having arrived in the country earlier that day from Syria under an alias and using one of several passports. According to police, al-Mabhouh was drugged and then suffocated with a pillow.〔http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/dubai-hit-police-mahmoud-al-mabhouh-killed/story?id=9973592〕 Widespread speculation, which Dubai police allegations support, is that he was killed by Israeli Mossad assassins. Allegations that the assassins used fraudulently obtained passports from several countries led to the arrests and expulsions of Israeli officials in several European countries and Australia.〔 ==Biography== Al-Mabhouh was born in Jabalia Camp, Gaza Strip, on 14 February 1960.〔(archived )〕 As a young man, he pursued weightlifting. He quit secondary school, trained as a car mechanic and later became a garage owner. Mabhouh had 13 siblings, and was a married father of four.〔 In the 1970s, he joined the Muslim Brotherhood, and in the 1980s, he was reported to have been involved in sabotaging coffee shops where gambling was taking place. In 1986, the Israeli security forces arrested him for possession of an assault rifle. It has been reported that after his release, he became involved with Hamas. According to a Hamas statement, Mabhouh was involved in the 1989 abduction and killing of the Israeli soldiers Avi Sasportas and Ilan Sa'adon.〔〔After Mabhouh's death, Sa'adon's mother was quoted as saying, "I am happy that (death ) has been avenged, but sad that 20 years passed before this happened."()〕 In a video taped two weeks before his death and broadcast on Al Jazeera in early February 2010, Mabhouh admitted his involvement in this event, saying he had disguised himself as an Orthodox Jew. In May 1989, a failed attempt was made to arrest him for his involvement in the murder of the two Israeli soldiers and he subsequently left the Gaza Strip; his home in Gaza was demolished by Israel in 1989 as retribution for the attack. According to a report in ''The Palestine Chronicle'', al-Mabhouh had survived two assassination attempts; the first was a car bombing; the second took place in Beirut in 2009 and involved the use of poison which rendered him unconscious for 30 hours. Al-Mabhouh was believed by Israel to have been involved in smuggling weapons and explosives into Gaza.〔 He spent most of 2003 in an Egyptian jail. At the time of his death, Mahmoud al-Mabhouh was wanted by the Israeli, Egyptian and Jordanian governments,〔 and living in Syria. Just before his killing, Mabhouh was alleged to have played a key role in forging secret connections between the Hamas government in Gaza and the Al-Quds Force of the Revolutionary Guards in Iran.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mahmoud al-Mabhouh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
