Fabrications and lies of the Mossad

Neal Bascomb's new book, Hunting Eichmann is very revealing on many levels. The author is quite sympathetic to Israel (known on this site as the usurping entity) but accidentally reveals this: the Mossad does not deserve the credit for discovering Eichmann. A volunteer walked to the the Israeli embassy in West Germany and gave the information about Eichmann's location and fake identity. For decades, the Mossad bragged about its heroic success in the operation but Bascomb justifies the lack of success on the part of Mossad by saying that it was a young organization that was under financed. He says now that the organiztion has a stellar repuation now. Tell Bascomb about the failed assassination (and comedic) attempt on Khalid Mish`al in Amman when one lone Palestinian bodyguard defeated a Mossad unit, or about the time in 2006 when the Israeli occupation army kidnapped a Lebanese farmer because they thought he was Hasan Nasrallah. Such are the tales of the Mossad. The Mossad is only heroic and masterful in American movies and US popular culture (and in Arab regimes' propaganda to justify their incompetence and impotence vis-a-vis their people). By the way, how would the world react if Palestinian organizations went around the world to hunt Israeli war criminals? Would they react with the same admiration that they accorded Israel when it kidnapped Eichmann (who of course deserved to be kidnapped and tried but not by Israel which has no crediblity on any matter except war crimes). Of course, we now know that the US government was not keen on hunting down Nazi war criminals because many prominent Nazis were working for the US-installed government in West Germany.
