1. very bizarre and fishy
CJK   (01.22.15)
if this report is true, which is not obvious, then head of mossad must be fired. the mossad cannot formulate policy. it must only collect intelligence. the alligiance of the mossad must be to the state of israel and to her legally elected government.
2. Agendas are clear
Zechariah   (01.22.15)
Likud a leader is grand standing Mossad predicted the Yom Kippur War and has a good but not flawless record .Pity they did not go against First Lebanon War but that's a dark time for Israel .Others want Labor Hatnua in a National unity butthat cuts out the Partythat Represents Israels best Fighters -the Religious Zionists . This brings a Dilemna for Israel but the Arabs will accept only the Maximun that noIsraeli Leader can give .So its a long conflict irreparable just be contained .Look at Russia and Ukraine its Innate .
3. #1 Mossad is protecting the state of Israel
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (01.22.15)
Netanyahu is protecting his free ice cream. Iran is fully co-operating in the steps it is making which is all about boosting confidence when eeveryone sits around the conference table to sort this out once and for all. Netanyahu is desperate for negotiations to fail be cause his fear is that the US and Iran will become friends, particularly as Iran who has trillions of dollars of cash swilling about and the US wouldn't mind some trade deals to create some jobs.
4. Natural
Daniel   (01.22.15)
Mossad's role is to protect Israel, so when Bibi is happily sacrificing Israel's interest just for his personal gains, Mossad is absolutely right to react. It would be wrong to react against an elected government, but there is currently only an unelected care-taker government ahead of the elections, and the PM of this unelected government is shamelessly putting his own ambitions above Israel's.
5. Mossad shouldn't be interfering in US politics
Jean ,   Seattle, USA   (01.22.15)
Their job is to spy on Israel's enemies, not give advice on political matters.
6. More failed Obama "PR"
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.22.15)
He's trying to promote an illusion of dissent in Israel between the Prime Minister and Israel's Mossad. There is no such dissension. Should such dissension ever arise, the Memuneh is instantly out of a job. It is the Mossad that has provided the invaluable intelligence that enabled Israel to destroy Fordow, Qazvin and Parchin. It is the Mossad that enabled Israel to successfully trash -- and continue to successfully trash -- Iran's computer networks. We also blind their radar. We can shut down their entire electrical grid pretty much at will. A desperate ploy on the part of an ignored lame-duck administration. Obama can forget all about writing his way into the history books in a positive way. He's a disgrace and a failure. Keep it up, and he can add "impeached, convicted and imprisoned United States president." I wouldn't look to Biden for a pardon. Obama has spent six years triviliazing and ridiculing Biden. Biden won't be in a forgiving mood.
7. You mean King Netanyhou don't you?
nibor ,   israel   (01.22.15)
8. Mossad
Lazerbenabba ,   London, England   (01.22.15)
Mistakenly, I was under the impression that Mossad were the servant of the nation, not the lap dog of the antagonistic US administration. If they have genuine concerns as to US policy then it behooves Mossad to clarify those misgivings with the PM not to undermine him; who ever is in charge, if you can call it that, should be removed post haste.
9. Does the CIA report to Israel behind obama's back?
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (01.22.15)
I don't think so. Sounds like another 'watch out' here comes obama the liar movie or PR spin.
10. To: No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.22.15)
Your usual moronic utterances. The people of the United States are not in the least bit interested in improving relations with Iran. AMERICANS DO NOT LIKE IRAN. IN FACT, WE CANNOT STAND THAT REGIME. Americans remember the invasion of the U.S. Embassy in Teheran in 1979 and the taking of hostages, which were kept in cruel conditions for 444 days. Americans remember the disgusting pictures of mullahs kicking the corpses of American servicemen who died in the failed hostage rescue attempt. Their remains have never been repatriated -- they were never buried, just left out in the desert to be eaten by buzzards and predators. The American people remember that, too. In fact, one of the reasons that the Republicans swept so many Congressional, Senatorial and Gubernatorial elections had a great deal to do with the objection of the overwhelming majority of American people to any rapprochement with Iran. Iran does not have "trillions of dollars of cash," either. Check the price of oil, you fool.
11. #3, funny
Danny   (01.22.15)
The Mossad took the rare step of stating this story is complete and utter bullshit and that actually they said the complete and polar opposite. Fact is that Obama is alone on this because he is the most incompetent president the US has ever had.
12. Mossad
Lazerbenabba ,   London, England   (01.22.15)
I do not know if you have a doppleganger at #3 who tends to contradict yourself....a little confusing, the only difference address TelAviv/London and you are USA/Israel
13. #9, You beat me to the same exact comment
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.22.15)
Obama is well known for his dirty tricks.
