Who killed Zia — Mossad?
http://www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArticle.asp?xfile=data/subcontinent/2005/December/subcontinent_December135.xml§ion=subcontinent&col=

ISLAMABAD — The Israeli secret agency Mossad most probably killed General Ziaul Haq, suspects John Gunther Dean, who was the American ambassador to India in 1988.

“When Mr Dean expressed his views to the State Department at the time and insisted on a thorough investigation of the Israeli-Indian axis, he was accused of mental imbalance and relieved of his duties, according to an article in the latest issue of World Policy Journal by Barbara Crossette, who was the South Asia Bureau Chief of the New York Times from 1988 to 1991.

Dean was a distinguished diplomat who has garnered more ambassadorships than most envoys. He had strong opinions and years of valuable experience. As an independent thinker, he often had problems being a good “diplomat”.

Dean believes that the Israelis wanted to stop Pakistan’s military from making nuclear weapons. They had attacked Iraq’s nuclear facilities at Osirak in 1981 and believed Gen. Zia when he declared in 1987 that Pakistan was a “screwdriver’s turn away from the bomb”. snip

The US did not allow the FBI or any other agency to carry out a full-fledged investigation into the crash.
