The snag in this fairytale is that Syria and Iran are allies. If they wanted him dead, they could have killed him in Syria where he came from and it would have been far more secret than what we're seeing.

But then they wouldn't have been able to blame it on the evil zionist joos

Why not? Israel kills its enemies in Syria, Lebanon, Europe, Africa, wherever they find them. Do you think the Iranians planned all this, expecting the response from Dubai? Assassinations do not always go as planned and I doubt Iran did this.

iran cant help inter-clan breakups.

hamas, fatah, islamic jihad, hezbollah, etc...have a long history of killing their own brethren.

this doesnt even remotely look like a mossad op. supposed britain knew about the op b4 it happened and didnt do anything...hmmm.

lol. First it's Iran, now it isn't? You guys trying to spread disinformation? Well, it's as messy as this assassination. Keep your story straight. I doubt that the various Palestinian factions have a sophisticated setup like this. No need to be embarrassed about this screwup. Mossad has done many screwups before. But the end justifies the means so I don't think you should be so sensitive.

youd be surprised.

mossad didnt do this.

no way they would use ISRAELI passports in an op.

this is obviously just smoke and mirrors.

hamas easily has the tactical skill to commit such an operation.

They didn't use Israeli passports. They used European passports. And they've done it before. In 1987 they used British passports and promised the British it wouldn't happen again. Oops.

Look, you don't have to believe Mossad did this but everyone else, including me, does. There's a lot of evidence pointing to Israel doing this based on their past work. You are just throwing up denials.

I mean they used Israeli name. I don't think Dubai excepts Israeli passports minus diplomatic situations.

there is zero evidence linking israel to the killing, none whatsoever.

an "anonymous" source = nothing.

let's not forget, it is dubai police (lol) cooking all of this. now they have found 15 more suspects....they are obviously grasping.

dubai is trying to pin this on israel and their is no evidence to support.

i guess the palestinians they arrested too were working with the mossad?

Why not? Didn't Jediyoda have a thread about the son of the founder of Hamas working for Shin Bet?

israel doesnt have a history of outsourcing palestinians as mossad agents.

most LIKELY, hamas was killed by his own guys, or by arab intelligence...but not israel.

you dont need 26 people for one guy....and as i said before, zero evidence linking israel to the killing other than dubai "investigation" which have yet to be independently verified.

this is dubai...i mean, they were HOST to hamas terrorists.

not the most reliable sources.

A lot of country hosts terrorists, including America. Anyway, before you go off insulting Dubai, the UAE was one of the first arab countries with some sort of diplomatic (most likely trade) ties with israel. Maybe it was Oman? Not sure what happened to it but it did exist at one time.

So now they are upto 26 suspects? This is starting to sound a little far fetched. Do they have any real leads or are they simply adding any suspecting activity to the list?

You are right they are so monstrous. Instead they should have strapped bombs to their chest and blown him up in a very busy McDonald's like civilized people.

I see what you did there. They're pussies gently pawing at their worst enemies.

Narmer, I wouldn't even bother. I thought he's a jew, that at least would have made it understandable why he's taking the side of the human-bombers. If he's a Christian, then he's just one of the deranged Pat Robertson types.

Whats interesting about this whole MOSSAD angle is that Dubai authorities arresrted 2 palestinians a few weeks ago as suspects...lol...

What`s interesting is one of you said they had 26 suspects...lol....if i might add they have charged none of them...

Haha.

Recently the son of a major Hamas leader defected to the USA and told the world he spied for israel during the 2nd intifada.

How long until Hamas sends out its own hitmen?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8437652.stm

I don't know. Hamas still receives indirect support from the EU and is trying to be seen less aggressive.

I think if Hamas were to go after the guy it would be a major media victory for Israel. Plus, if the assassination occurred in the USA US administration might not call for a cease-fire when operation cast lead 2 comes around.

I doubt that given how soft Obama is. I also think Hamas cares more about vengeance than what Israel would think if it killed one of its best spies in the organization. Finally, last time I checked, Hamas and the US were not on good terms. They have nothing to lose and this guy better not assume that simply being in America will protect him.

Hamas and the USA are not on good terms but they have yet to condemn anything Hamas or the Palestinians have done.

400 rockets from Gaza since OCL. 200 mortars. 5 shooting incidents. 1 suicide bombing attempt in Eilat (guy was killed before he detonated.) frequent assaults of soldiers on the border - often by youth. Now riots involving Palestinian throwing fire bombs at IDF soldiers. Sea-bombs floating off the shores of Israel.

Obama, EU, or the UN has not condemned any of these events.

However, Israel merely recognized the importance of Rachel's Tomb as far as Jewish heritage is concerned and the Palestinians riot and say this could start a war.

EU and USA say Israel is being "provocative."

Yeah, recognizing a blatant Jewish heritage site - promising to maintain and preserve it and allow Jews, Christians, and Muslims access it freely (as they have since Israel showed up in 67) is "provocative."
