11 men for a simple assassination is not sophisticated. Being observed so easily is not sophisticated. Being traced so easily is not sophisticated. This entire opp seems very amateurish for the Mossad.
Let me give you an example. When Israel bombed the nuclear reactor in Syria a few years back, they were totally invisible. The tech they used to intercept and alter Syria's monitoring systems was totally unprecedented. They also know that attempts were made against their communications network by latest tech Russian spy gear during the last conflict with Hizballah. Bottom line is that Israel knows their tech and knows their communications/observations gear. Being observed and even looking right into the camera just is not them...but you never know. If you read down further (usually much further) on some of these articles you hear about Hamas members arrested in Jordan and other places in relation to this. Those articles that even bother to mention it. I don't have to go into my opinion of media outlets and their rush to scream provocative headlines without backup. It's about sales, not truth. It's about demonetization, which equals sales. I would love to it if this turns out to be an operation by Saudi Arabia. See how fast the headlines die down. -- Michael Dinowitz On Sun, Feb 21, 2010 at 2:32 PM, Judah McAuley <[email protected]> wrote: > > I would be surprised if Al-Fatah had the ability to operate with that > much sophistication anywhere and especially outside of the occupied > territories.
