Turkey arrests 7 on suspicion of selling information to Mossad

Truly a Mossad project, or just some Kurds that Sultan Erdogan dislikes?
[IsraelTimes] Ottoman Turkish police arrested seven people on suspicion of selling information to the Israeli intelligence service Mossad, the state-run Anadolu news agency says.

The suspects, who allegedly passed details to Mossad via private detectives, were detained in a joint operation with The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
’s National Intelligence Organization, or MIT.

Acting on warrants issued by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office, police anti-terror and intelligence branch officers carried out raids in Istanbul and the west coast city of Izmir, Anadolu reports.

Two other suspects in the investigation are thought to have been detained earlier.

Last month, 34 people were detained by Ottoman Turkish police on suspicion of spying for Israel. They were accused of planning to carry out activities that included reconnaissance and "pursuing, assaulting and kidnapping" foreign nationals living in Turkey.

At the time, Justice Minister Yilmaz Tunc said most of the suspects were charged with committing "political or military espionage" on behalf of Israeli intelligence.

Mossad is said to have recruited Paleostinians and Syrian nationals in Turkey as part of an operation against foreigners living in Turkey.

Following the Jan. 2 arrests, Anadolu cited a prosecution document as saying the operation targeted "Paleostinian nationals and their families ... within the scope of the ongoing Israeli-Paleostinian conflict."

The head of Israel’s domestic Shin Bet security agency said in December that his organization was prepared to target Hamas

...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
