A few minutes after the bombings, anonymous callers rang the Al-Jazeera and Reuters news bureaus to claim the attack was the work of a hitherto unknown group called Al-Nasra wal Jihad. (Records show calls had been made to Sheik Abdel-Al from those same phone booths in the past.) Al-Jazeera was told where to find a videotape of a young man named Ahmad Abu Adass, giving his reasons for becoming a martyr ... that Mr. Abu Adass left his home on Jan. 16, 2005 and was taken, voluntarily or not, to Syria, where he has since disappeared.
