This reply is gibberish, len. Why don't you read some history books, sometime?

If you consider execution a form of escaping then, Adolph Eichmann escaped.

He escaped to Argentina as did many others, where he lived incognito. The Israelis caught up with him in 1961, over fifteen years later, and kidnapped him. They never caught up with Mengele, who was also high on their lists.

The West was worried about a war, if they took such a prominent figure?

Not the West, len. Israel. Israel was a weak state in the 50's, badly outnumbered and outgunned. They could not have taken the Mufti without sparking a war with Syria. Besides, as I said, the Mufti was not one guy living incognito, he was a well-guarded public figure.
