Missing U.S. Diplomat Found Dead In Cyprus
allheadlinenews.com ^ | Monday, July 02, 2007 | Komfie Manalo

Posted on 07/02/2007 4:35:03 AM PDT by rawhide

Nicosia, Cyprus (AHN) - A senior U.S. envoy in Cyprus who had been missing since Thursday has been found dead in a remote part of the Mediterranean island.

Tom Mooney, a U.S. defense attaché and army attaché at the U.S. Embassy in Cyprus was reported missing on Thursday. A search on Mooney led authorities to a remote area in Cyprus where they found his lifeless body. He has the rank of lieutenant-colonel.

A local radio station said authorities found the U.S. diplomat near the capital Nicosia. Although police have yet to establish the cause of his death.

Cyprus is one of the safest countries in Europe with the lowest crime rates. Attacks on foreign diplomat are rare in the region.

The 45-year-old U.S. official was last seen leaving the U.S. embassy in his Chevrolet Saloon car Thursday.

On Sunday, the U.S. embassy sought the assistance of Cyprus authorities to locate Mooney. The embassy posted “important announcement” on its Web site, saying “one of our embassy employees, Thomas Mooney, has not been in touch with the embassy for more than 48 hours.”

The appeal adds, “anyone with information which might be helpful in locating him should contact the local police station.”

With time more information comes out. I at first thought the Glasgow attack was more a sudden jihad instance. With the developments over the weekend, the Brits have a more solid connection with the two dud bombs. LGF has a photo showing the propane tanks included on the jeep - same MO as was found with the mercedes the day before. Clearly the cell involved here had the idea, but failed on the ignition method in both instances. Catching the perps in this instance will definitely give the brits some breathing room since I would suspect that any other cell would lay low until the intense scanning for other acts is stepped down. Below is a photo from LGF showing the propane tanks.
