Authorities in Dubai suspect the murder of Hamas commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh was the work of Mossad, which some argue is a blow to the secret service’s reputation.

The assassination was not bungled by Israel. The mission was successful and no one will ever face charges. It was however less slick than we have come to expect from Mossad. Israel, like the US, feels that that it can act with impunity (because both Israel and the US have in the past and continue to today). This is perhaps why Mossad have been a little sloppy, even arrogant, on this occasion by leaving a bit of an audit trail. It matters not, there will never be enough 'proof' to pursue this matter formally, and any political fallout / embarasment is likely to be minor and short lived. Israel knows this and just has to keep quiet and wait for it all to blow over.

In Europe the final straw that broke the camels back was the massacre of civilians in Garza by the Israeli armed forces. This latest murder is consistent with the foreign policy of the Israeli government. Its contempt for all other states except America is an open secret. Together these two countries are the founder members of the Axis of Impunity. They invade countries , set up secret prisons ,torture civilians and lay waste to the cities. And European governments are either complicit in these activities or look the other way. As to this latest involvement of Europe. Nothing will come of it. European governments have turned licking the President of the USA's boots into an art form. And this servility spreads to Israel though the patronage of the government of the USA.

Always get a kick out of the Israel related reports. Still unproven who killed a terrorist smuggling weapons from Iran, they call it a "murder" and RT even says" Mossad did it, call the guy a military commander and even say the operation was a blow to Mossad! 4. possible explanations: 1. The guys at RT aren't the smartest people, 2.Just another jealous flock of anti-semites, 3. Are following how the world reports the story. 4. Russians only care about making a profit from selling weapons to Terrorist supporting Countries.

RT gullable reports To the best of my knowledge Russia do not supply any weapons to 'terrorists' - unlike the USA. Critisism of Israels government and its actions is not anti-semitic, just as critisisim of the US is not anti-Christian. As for calling Hamas or Iran, 'terrorists', I believe that the French resistance held that title during WW2, Nelson Mandela was also called a terrorist, and the Mujahadin who fought the Soviet occupation were also 'terrorists'. One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.

Ronni Shaked, terrorism and security correspondent for Israel’s Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper: "Of course when you are doing something, sometimes you are making mistakes, you are human being, only God does not make mistakes.” Ronni ; Who exactly is this 'You', you are refering to ?

To: RT gullable reports, Every time Israel is criticizes about something they always jump to the phrase: “ANTI-SEMITES”, as an old, well rehearsed and effective stereotype which worked for them for a few decades. Unfortunately, the World has changed considerable and not that nobody is buying any longer to the Jewish Stereotypes but Jews will be brought to justice every time they commit crime or forgery. So, Jews of the World and Israel, embrace yourselves to be responsible to the rest of the World for everything that you are doing, just like every single person on this Planet because your crimes are just as terrible as anyone else’s because you population of few million Jews is sharing this planet with another 6 billion inhabitants of different nationality and no one is the chosen one but all equal.
