Irrefutable Proof the Mossad Was Behind Dubai!


They've started selling the t-shirt:

"SALES OF Mossad-themed T-shirts, available by mail order, have risen tenfold since the Israeli spy agency was linked to last month’s assassination in Dubai.

"Despite the fact that Israeli leaders are refusing to confirm or deny Mossad involvement, orders for the garments have flooded in over the past few weeks – from Israelis and particularly from diaspora Jews."

Nitzana Darshan-Leitner, an Israeli right-wing activist attorney, runs the Shurat Hadin Law Center.

'Debacle or success? Experts doubt Mossad's role in Dubai assassination'

My first published article for China's Xinhua News Agency, datelined Jerusalem (yes, you read that right):
News Analysis: Debacle or success? experts doubt Mossad's role in Dubai assassination

By Dave Bender, Gur Salomon, David Harris

JERUSALEM, Feb. 22 (Xinhua) -- Israeli analysts on the Mossad cast doubt on international reports assuming the legendary spook shop is behind the killing of top Hamas commander, Mahmoud al- Mabhouh in a Dubai hotel room on January 19, and whether the operation was even a success.

(The article is a compilation of three stories that I edited together, Gur's, David's, and mine, which was part of a video interview I held this week with Yediot Aharonot intel, and investigative report, Ronen Bergman, on the liquidation and it's aftermath).

Netanyahu: Sanctions With Teeth' Against Iran

By Dave Bender

"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called for “sanctions with teeth,” against the government of Iran, including imports of gas, and energy exports, in an address to a packed seventh annual Jerusalem Conference.

"'The argument is over,' Netanyahu said of the possibility that Iran was trying to make a nuclear weapon, and added that Iran was a threat to world peace, and to Israel...."

Meanwhile, in a related item, The Jerusalem Post's Sarah Honig, commenting on the Dubai Hamas hit (that, just to keep in mind, was aimed at stopping a Hamas/Iranian attempt to get even more, longer-range weaponry to use against Israel), says pretty much what I've been telling many over the years - often, unfortunately, to little avail:

"'dam butlab dam' (blood begets blood– but only for some)'

"As in yesteryear, so in the 21st century, it’s axiomatic that Arabs have the right to inflict incalculable harm on Jews, but the Jews’ attempts to deflect such blows are evil, outrageous and deserving of merciless punishment."

UK Peer + IDF + Haiti = 'Teh Styupid is Strong in This One'


Jenny! Look!: That must be an Israeli baby-organ bandit sizing up his next meal now!

From the UK Jewish Chronicle:

Tonge: Investigate IDF stealing organs in Haiti

Baroness Tonge, the Liberal peer, said this week that Israel should set up an inquiry to disprove allegations that its medical teams in Haiti “harvested” organs of earthquake victims for use in transplants.

Her call has been sharply criticised by fellow LibDems, but party leader Nick Clegg has refused to act against her.

The organ theft claims were published last week in the Palestine Telegraph, an online journal based in Gaza of which Baroness Tonge is a patron.
