#1 The reason I doubt Israel killed the Iranians is because none of their successful face-to-face operations has been in a totalitarian society like Iran. In fact, most of those operations have been in the West. Uganda was 84% Christian, ruled by a Muslim (Idi Amin). Since the Black September uprising was crushed by Hussein, with Israel backing him against a Syrian invasion, Jordan has vacillated between friendly and neutral. Dubai, of course, is the Vegas of the Middle East. The rest of the face-to-face high-profile operations were in the West. Against a real enemy like Egypt, the Israelis had to resort to letter bombs in their attempt to rub out Nazi scientists. |
