2. Ben Zygier a Mossad agent?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.09.13)
Oh, I don't think so. Just another lost, sad soul, clinging to his Jewish ancestry and pretending to be something he clearly was not. And the world fell for it once, and is itching to fall for it again. Please. The Mossad is not the CIA. Nor is it MI5 -- or MI6 -- or any other secret service. The Mossad actually knows what it is doing. I guess whatever sells a newspaper ..... sells. What a bunch of claptrap.
3. More questions than answers
Jake B. ,   Cleveland, OH   (07.09.13)
1. How long has the 2nd prisoner-x been incarcerated? 2. How long has he been in solitary confinement? 3. Is he an Israeli citizen? Foreign National? Jewish? Oleh/Vatik? 4. Assuming Ben Zygier allegedly committed suicide after 10 months in solitary (most people wouldn't last 10 days before becoming a mental vegetable), why didn't the Prison Authorities immediately change their protocols in light of the failures discovered? 5. What is the suicide rate in Israeli prisons compared with the general public? (the well known entertainer, Dudu Topaz, is just one name that comes to mind regarding other prisoners who took their own lives while in solitary confinement). 6. Why was Adolf Eichmann, arguably, the worst perpetrator of crimes against the Jewish nation, entitled to a public trial while Ben Zygier and now prisoner-x-#2 never had their day in court? 7. Are there laws regarding when/if an individual can be 'disappeared'? How can the public be assured the disappearance of these individuals was truly necessary to protect the security of the State and not a personal vendetta by a powerful person or group who might have felt threatened?
4. Why i have the impression...

regarding your point 6: eichman was not a security prisoner. he was on trial for crimes against humanity, genocide, crimes against the jewish people. there was nothing secret about what he did and the purpose of the trial was precisely to educate the public and the world about the crimes of the nazis. zygier was a secret agent whose crime, whatever it might have been, needs to remain secret for national security purposes. nor was he disappeared, as you claim. many people knew of his arrest, and he had contact with his family, with his lawyers and with psychiatrists. all those people knew that he was at ayalon and his lawyers at least knew the charges against him.
6. useless information
CJK   (07.09.13)
all we are told is that allegedly there is another national security prisoner held in ayalon prison. this information in and by itself is useless.
