61. Even the Gestapo Agents Went Free
Dav Lev ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (02.20.10)
Bob has a good point. Why would Mossad use names of people who reside in Israel? There are millions of people visiting Israel yearly..many from the USA. America (unlike France) is not about to summons in Michael Oren for "explanations". Mabye this WAS an intelligence operation, and maybe not? The US NEVER admits it's own spying, but will announce (Pollard, Walker) when it is spied on. Frankly, had I could, I would have ended this terrorists life, w/o the fanfare. A 38 would have sufficed. Buford Furrow, shot 5 Jewish children/and killed one postman at a Jewish community center. He is serving life. He camped out in Hollywood Ca, near my home in Burbank. If only I had known, I am armed. Probably the Arabs were behind his crimes years ago..if one wants a stretch.
62. The Taliban Leader Was Killed, So What
Dav Lev ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (02.20.10)
Look fellow Zionists, the US never admits to an intelligence operation. Remember the Bay of Pigs..and the Iranian fiasco. Sometimes operations go wrong. Ahmad is Pres and Castro rules still. I guess the French NEVER do covert work, like in Algeria? Sure! Israel (under any P.M.) and Mossad or any intelligence agency, must never, never talk about it, one way or another. What is pertinent, is that this leader of Hamas wants Jihad against every Jew (Israel/Diaspora). Sure, he will be replaced., just as the Taliban leader (Pakistan) will be replaced. Does anyone care? I don't. (Read LA Times).

Maybe this operation was done with the blessing,or even the cooperation of the government of Dubai,Hamas Hezbulla,Binladen,the Wahabis, are a threat not only to Israel and the west,but also to the Arab countries,this man was still an active terrorist,beside,the statue of limitation does not cover murder.
64. # 28 Replacemants
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (02.20.10)
Replacements will be dealt with,with the same medicine,this will force the terrorists to dig deeper in their holes,sunshine will be dangerous not only to their skins, but also to their very lives.
65. maya @ 59, nobody is calling you father worthless.
leo ,   usa   (02.20.10)
Guy in question was a terrorist who got what was coming to him. Him being somebody's father got nothing to do with it. I am fairly certain all his victims were somebody else's children and some even were somebody else's parents.
66. #64, I understand,
Sean ,   Montreal   (02.20.10)
if you want to call these assassins terrorists because of their disregard for international law, but I'm not too clear on your suggestion for their exposure to the sun. Are you suggesting Mossad should take precautions not to have their nefarious deeds see the light of day? I couldn't agree with you more. They give Israelis a bad name.
67. enemy dead, our agents alive
Richard Sherwin ,   Herzliyah, Israel   (02.20.10)
What could anyone expect us to do? weep for a murderer dead, lament that the agents escaped? Whoever did the job, it was well done, they deserve our thanks, and admiration. Some people here talk as if theyve forgotten we're at war...still...
68. Wildmandxb and "replacements":
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (02.20.10)
So you think Hamas is like some multi hydrahead where, if you cut off one head another grows in its place? Bad thinking. One way to win a battle is to destroy the leadership. In fact, this is the most efficient and least damaging method, to the bulk of the population, to win. And it is Israel's intention and it is Israel's need to achieve victory, come what may. As to Hamas leadership, assassinating one of its valuable twofold effects: 1) It rids the organization of a very valuable man; and 2) It strikes fear into the minds of other leaders, as it should, and has the psychological effect of causing them to make erratic decisions or to psychologically paralyze them.
69. #24 u ever heard of contact lenses or laser eye surgery?
(02.20.10)
cause you know that can be used to change retina scans!
70. # 66,I understand
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (02.20.10)
According to your twisted mind,to kill Hitler,Pol pot,Binladen,by the C.I.A.or by M.I.5 would be nefarious,and as far, a bad name for Israel,The Jewish people had a bad press from time immemorial,so, it wouldn't matter much,what the international anti Israel chorus is singing.
71. #49 Anna Canada
Sami ,   Lebanon   (02.21.10)
“Reading your talk back, it’s easy to conclude how insecure and vulnerable you feel.” Believe me this is the most time we feel secure since the Israeli creation at our south borders .To be more convinced ask your buddies in Israel to take a look over the fence and see how much new building arising day by day right few hundred meters at your frontiers .Look at Bent Jbeil city by Google Earth and you will see the new building constructions are in the go. Do all these people feel insecure and vulnerable and keep investing there? “Lieberman is the voice of the Israeli consciousness”.. We congratulate you with such voice and coma consciousness!! When you will weak up if you ever do you will realize why many Jewish thinkers believe Israel hold and include self distraction elements. Cheer :)
72. Hamas should just do the same...........
Gentile ,   Americanus Potentus   (02.21.10)
israeli diplomats are always in Europe. Just do what the Jews do and pay someone a million dollars for information and do what you have to do. Mossad is worthless without the help of Palestinian traitors who sell their people out. This has been the downfall of the Palestinian Arab from day one.
73. to 70

74. #71 Sami
Hal ,   U   (02.21.10)
Sami, Sami ,Sami, you know very well that your boy Sayed is laying low from his last brilliant move in 2006. You also know that unlike 2006 you won't have Olmert to kick around. Bibi is not going to play potsy with you heros and all that development you crow about, I hope it is heavily insured. When we wake up Samster, please don't be there!
75. #72 So, you are inciting murder
Tahl ,   Ashdod, Israel   (02.21.10)
Of Israeli diplomats? Thank you for clarifying your terrorist-sympathizing, Israel-hating, Islamofascist-supporting agenda, so that we could see you in the proper light.

You have been so brainwashed all your life, that you need de-programming. I too am surprised this article was published.

78. no screw- up in Dubai

THANK YOU
79. Screw-up or not, it was'nt legal.
David ,   Canberra, Australia   (02.25.10)
If I was tribal, I might support my tribe if it sent representatives to the neighbourhood of another tribe and murdered somone, and feel morally justified because "my tribe" did it! But I'm not so inclined to support murder because I'm not tribal, and murder is illegal, (when the other tribe commits murder that is illegal). 'Israeli war crimes' in Gaza, 'Mossad murders' in the UAE - what religion would sanction this if it were true? International law is clear, Israeli morality is cloudy and self-serving.
