Alberto Nisman's Secret Recordings, Revealed
(The Tower) Eamonn MacDonagh - Before he was murdered, the Argentine prosecutor investigating the massive 1994 Buenos Aires bombing wiretapped over 40,000 phone calls to investigate if the Argentine government conspired to cover up Iran's involvement in the attack. The importance of the recordings can be gleaned from a February 2013 conversation between Argentine government intelligence operative Ramon Hector "Allan" Bogado and Jorge Alejandro "Yusuf" Khalil, an Argentine citizen now seen as Tehran's main back-channel interlocutor with the Argentine government. In that call, Bogado told Khalil, "We have a video of the [AMIA] attack," leading Khalil to reprimand him for not being more careful when speaking on the phone.
