Following alleged Dubai mess, the Mossad chief
must go
By Am', Oren
Tags: Mossad, Dubai Assassination
An important figure with many followers goes overboard and gets exiled to a
faraway village in the north. That creative solution comes courtesy of the
rabbinical forum "Takana." But the sanction meted out to Rabbi Mordechai
Elon should also be applied to another gentleman, who anyway already
resides in the north: Maj. Gen. (ret.) Meir Dagan, the belligerent, heavy-
handed chief of the Mossad.
The State of Israel did not claim responsibility for the assassination of
Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai. The entire matter is treated as AFMR -
According to Foreign Media Reports. We can still argue both sides of the
broader issue at hand: assassinating senior officials in hotels (see under
Rehavam Ze'evi) and in public (Imad Mughniyeh, Fathi Shkaki, Abbas
Mussawi, Ali Hassan Salameh, and the list goes on). But we could also narrow
the question to the quality of the performance in Dubai. And what must have
seemed to its perpetrators as a huge success is now being overshadowed by
enormous question marks.
If the perpetrators were from the Mossad (AFMR, of course), Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu must be walking around with an acute sense of deja vu.
Once again, an assassination of a senior Hamas leader in a friendly Arab
country; once again, an operation designed to kill someone quietly and
inconspicuously; once again, a diplomatic mess; and once again, it is all
happening on Netanyahu's watch. In 1997, it was Khaled Meshal in Jordan.
This time, it's Mabhouh in Dubai.
The anticipated diplomatic crisis is not, so far, with Dubai, but with Advedisernent
the countries whose passports were used by the assassins. The United
Kingdom and Ireland were used once again, and this time, a French
connection topped it off. It is as if Israeli govemments had never apologized to
London for using British documentation; as if they had not promised solemnly,
when passports of Her Majesty's subjects were found in a certain phone booth,
that this would never happen again.
This time, they didn't mess with feisty New Zealand. But other countries also
do not tend to be forgiving of such insolent violations of their sovereignty. Italy,
for instance, has engaged for the last few years in a merciless attack on the
CIA, which abducted a suspected Egyptian terrorist on Italian soil (Mordechai
Vanunu's abduction came decades too early), as well as on its own intelligence
agencies, which assisted the American one. As soon as the abducted man's
wife filed a complaint, the Italian judiciary ruled that it could not possibly avoid
EFTA00745584
investigating and pressing charges. In Italy, like in Dubai, meticulous work was
invested in collecting evidence against the suspects, mostly by going through
cellular communications data and tracing credit card trails in hotels and other
businesses.
But even if whoever carried out the assassination does reach some kind of
arrangement with the infuriated Western nations, it still has an obligation to its
own citizens.
This obligation was violated, thanks to the Mossad - AFMR - and the attorney
general, whether through action or inaction.
Using the identities of real, living, innocent Israelis for operational
documentation is against the law. This kind of abuse also causes innocent
civilians to suffer the evil that already plagues ministers and officers: being
prevented from traveling abroad for fear of being arrested by Interpol on
suspicion of being the Dubai assassins.
Former Mossad chief Efraim Halevy pushed for a Mossad Law to be legislated
that would enshrine the state's obligation to defend its agents caught breaking
laws abroad. The initiative never got off the ground: A state can't legitimize
illegality. But neither can it allow one of its institutions to arbitrarily harm
civilians not the police, not
the tax authority, not the Shin Bet security service and not the Mossad.
Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein was asked yesterday whether an
investigation will be opened following the public complaints of those whose
identities were stolen from them, and whose lives and liberty are therefore now
threatened. Weinstein has not yet had time to study the issue. He has some
superficial knowledge of Dagan's character, but no prejudice.
Netanyahu played deaf to the warnings and extended Dagan's tenure for an
eighth year, a decision as hasty as it was unnecessary. But the Mossad, like
the Jerusalem District Attorney's Office, cannot hinge upon one man, without
whom everything would collapse.
What is needed now is a swift decision to terminate Dagan's contract and to
appoint a new Mossad chief - one of the current department heads, one of
their predecessors, or a talented Israel Defense Forces general. There's no
disease (AFMR) without a cure: An easel in Rosh Pina is yearning for
pensioner Dagan to come home.

Mossad-style execution Judaism for all
The evidence left behind in Dubai suggests Judaism belongs just as much to the secular
Mossad methods. as it does to the Haredim.
