Haaretz - Israel News - The Muslim Brotherhood is not his brother

"The Muslim Brotherhood is not his brother
By Zvi Bar'el

The arrest last week of Louai Sakra in Turkey suspected of planning to carry out a terrorist attack on Israeli cruise ships evidently would not have happened without the unusual cooperation of several intelligence agencies. According to Turkish sources, it was Syrian intelligence that furnished information about the possibility that Sakra was living in the city of Diyarbakir in southeast Turkey; Israeli intelligence contributed information on his potential targets and Turkish intelligence reaped the harvest. Sakra is suspected of having links with the Turkish terrorist group that carried out the terrorist bombing of synagogues in Istanbul in 2003. What's more, based on his shouts from his jail cell, he is also linked to Al-Qaida."
