They are probably telling the Muslims that the Israeli's were looking for Iranian nuclear secrets. Any horse manure is published ,and believed by Arabs, and liberal news media, in the United States and Pan Arabia I wouldn't be suprised if CBS and 60 Minutes does a story on Israeli spies in Cyprus this Sunday.

Do they still have their passports?

You are so right. Arab media reports always claim that Israeli Mossad agents are all around the world. There is nothing between the Arab reports and the truth. They always invent things cuz their people gulp it all up like sugar.

Cyprus Republic entered EU in 2004 with the whole of its soil including the "Turkish North" which is recognized only by Turkey. "Israelis who visit countries that we have no diplomatic relations with,should be aware that if things go wrong they do not have consular protection at their disposal,” a Foreign Ministry official told Ynet. Greek Cypriots will appreciate if foreighn Press be carefull until a justice solution for the Cyprus problem,under UN decisions, for Turkish Cypriots and Geek Cypriots. Thanks a lot Andreas
