31. WELL DONE BIBI !!!!!!!
Ariel ,   Shoam, Israel   (02.21.10)
32. Nobody cares
Sidney ,   USA   (02.21.10)
Except the Israeli media. The major media in the US are not following this story. Drop it already.
33. #32 they can't drop it
Yitzchak ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.21.10)
Don't you get it? All the Jew-haters, Jewish and non-Jewish, can't let go of this. They can't live with the idea that Israel might have done something for her own good against the will of the world. They can't live with the idea that Jews may actually have dignity. No. They can't let it go.
34. Excellent work
Brod ,   USA   (02.21.10)
It is time for Israel's leaders to go after the Islamist-Jihadist murderers, thugs and terrorists. Why should these dark forces be allowed to operate with impunity? This is called deterrent. Israel should continue to hunt and exterminate the dark forces wherever they are.
35. to salma

I wouldn't joke on dead holocaust survivors this something you palis normaly do but not me. more info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Exodus.
36. Brod, since you're so proud of the assassins' work,
Persian CAT   (02.21.10)
what will stop Israelis to be assassinated when they go abroad for business or pleasure?
37. Bibi would be derelect in his duties if he hadn't
David ,   Hartford USA   (02.21.10)
That's not to say that Israel did it. But the PM of Israel has every right and duty to order his security services to protect Israel by every means available. And if that means killing terrorist dirtbags anywhere in the world, so be it. Every Hamas and Hizbollah sh-t-for-brains must now constantly look over their shoulders because they know they can be wacked at any moment. Good. As for the 'Law Enforcement' agencies trying to find out wha happened, you have terribly misplaced priorities! Simply put a notch on the pistol of justice and move on. Nothing to see here, folks- a bad guy bit the dust. No tears here. What goes around, came around.
38. #22 - Hilarious! I spilled my drink laughing at that one!!

39. #36 - Relax Iranian Goat - we're getting to you....
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (02.21.10)
When the US and we are done with you in a few months, you will have alot of rubble to clean up. Better get the dust pan ready!!! LOL
40. :: #36 You are proud of the assassins doing it in full view
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (02.21.10)
of everybody in Iran. As long as they are of Iranian origin and send by the Theocracy you never have any objection to them assassinating your countrymen and countrywomen
41. #32. US media covered B Spears likfe before
Aaron ,   Miami, FL, USA.   (02.21.10)
42. #10 - Because of UK we're all in this mess
William ,   Israel   (02.21.10)
It was thanks to the Turks who allowed Jews to begin returning to their homeland. It was thanks to the British who let Arabs immigrate illegally in the 1930s and did nothing to stop it. It was thanks to the British that land they partition for YOU was divided again and given to their Hashemite buddies, after they divided other lands and gave them to tribe leaders all over the ME. Today's Pakistan-India problems are also because of the UK. You can have them.
43. Dubai Police did all this in just a couple of days?
William ,   Israel   (02.21.10)
I see this story falling apart already. According to the article, a doctor wasn't even called for 24 hours, but the Police claim they found the cause of death 19 hours after the assassins left the country. Add in the extra time needed for Hamas to claim it was cancer and release it to the news, then make a claim that it was poison, and push for a blood toxicity test. All this takes a week or more, not 19 hours.
44. #25 - But she does know how to tell the truth
William ,   Israel   (02.21.10)
Conversely, you're connection to reality is highly suspect.
45. #21, #23 - Consider the source and reason behind article
William ,   Israel   (02.21.10)
The source is British, and the reason is abundantly clear. They are trying to lay the groundwork to delegitimize Israel by pushing "evidence" to have Netanyahu arrested. This, above the tons of other evidence, shows how this is a false flag operation and an attempt to pin a professional hit on Israel. People are working overtime to attack Israel through baseless accusations they pass as "fact", and completely ignore the very dangerous arms smuggling networks from Iran to parts of the ME, targeting Israel and Western armies.

47. THE TIMES IS REGURGITATION DUBAI SPECULATION VERBAITM
naro ,   nyc   (02.21.10)
Times writer has invented an "Israeli" source when in reality he just regurgitates the official Dubai version,
48. They Forgot to Mention Organ Harvesting
Frankie Littlehammer ,   New Herstal, TX, US   (02.21.10)
They forgot to mention that Mr Netanyahu suggested they harvest Mr Mabhouh's organs to cover some of the cost of the operation.
49. Sensationalism sells
Cynthia ,   USA   (02.21.10)
From reading the Timesonline article posted 1/21/10, I noticed the author failed to identify any of his sources and innocent people whose passports were stolen and used were featured and labeled "killers" while the author knew this was not true. Unless Mahnaimi doubles as Mossad agent and was present at meetings and conversations with Netanyahu and Degan, this article is based on fiction. The author does acknowledge, "exactly how Mabhouh was killed remains unclear" and "there was no evidence of foul play. There were no signs of struggle or any violence to Mabhouh". Medications for high blood pressure were found in Mahbouh's room and a doctor summoned to his room "decided that the Palestinian had died of natural causes, possibly from a heart attack." The author proceeds to state, "When results of Mabhouh's post-mortem came through, they were still inconclusive. No firm evidence of exactly how Mabhouh died, either from natural causes or foul play, emerged. The uncertainty alone was enough for Hamas to declare that Israel had killed their man". In the article Mahniami does not say PM authorized Mabhouh killing. He states, "Typically on such occasions, the prime minister intones: "The people of Israel trust you. Good Luck." More fiction.
50. for those who really know Arab; he did NOT use fake passport
(02.21.10)
He used to use his quadrupled name (first, father, grandfather's) but not the family name. That name was evident as such on a 8 month prior personal clinical report in Dubai. He probably used to get tired voice when he reach the fifth station of his name as the name "al-Mabhouh" implies. That last health report revealed the cause of his death; the man had pleural fluid without rise of temperature denting that he most probably had heart and/or kidney disease. Before, the Mossad hit the crippled Shiekh Ahmad Yassin. Don't you see, the Israeli Intelligence helps Darwin's Law" of natural selection to allow knew young blood to carry on the job.
