Re: Pollard handler and Israeli Cabinet minister Rafi Eitan threatens to kidnap Iran's President

[sullivan]

An Israeli cabinet minister has suggested Israel could kidnap Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad over threats he has made against the state.

Ahmadinejad made no threats, just observations about the inevitable future of the racist quasi state (what the French ambassador to the UK rightly termed 'that shitty little state') based on historical precedent. Israel, on the other hand, has threatened Iran. Is it okay, then, for Iranian Secret Services to kidnap the Israeli President?

Ex-secret agent Rafi Eitan was involved in the abduction of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Argentina in 1960.
He told German magazine Der Spiegel that such operations were not completely a thing of the past.

Of course they are not. A leopard does not change its spots.

The Iranian leader has made a number of threats against Israel - he recently predicted that it would soon disappear.

A prediction is not a threat.

Mr Ahmadinejad has also quoted the view of the late Iranian spiritual leader, Ayatollah Khomenei, that Israel was a tumour that needed to be erased from history.

An opinion is not a threat.

Mr Eitan, a member of Israel's inner cabinet of ministers with security responsibilities, said he was expressing his personal opinion in raising the abduction option.
The former Mossad agent said the Iranian leader had threatened genocide and should therefore be brought for trial to The Hague, seat of the international war crimes tribunal.

He didn't threaten any such thing. His words were twisted out of all recognition by MEMRI, an infamous propaganda outfit working out of 'that shitty little state'.
