Ex-ambassador: 'We took care of most of the bombers ourselves'

Former Israeli ambassador to Argentina Itzhak Aviran told a Jewish news agency on Thursday that Israel has already ensured that most of the AMIA bombers from Buenos Aires are no longer among the living.
Israel has killed most of the perpetrators responsible for the deadly attacks on its embassy and on the Argentine Jewish Charities Federation (AMIA) building in Buenos Aires, former Israeli ambassador to Argentina Itzhak Aviran said on Thursday.
"The large majority of those responsible are no longer of this world, and we did it ourselves," Aviran told the Buenos Aires-based AJN Jewish news agency, according to AFP.
In March 1992, a car bombing in front of the Israeli embassy in the Argentine capital killed 29 people and wounded 200 others. The Islamic Jihad took responsibility for this attack.
Two years later, in July 1994, a bombing at the AsociaciĆ³n Mutual Israelita Argentina (AMIA) building in Buenos Aires killed 85 people and injured 300.

Aviran, who was Israel's ambassador to the country from 1993-2000, accused the Argentinian government of not doing enough "to get to the bottom of this tragedy."
"We still need an answer [from Argentina] on what happened. We know who the perpetrators of the embassy bombing were and they did it a second time," he said.
There's at least one perpetrator we haven't gotten yet:

It's long past time.
