#1 I didn't know they named the "head of the mossad" in public..I'd imagine that Dagan is not really the head of the mossad.

#2 actually, BH6, I think he is, just as Leon Panetta is Director of the CIA - they are the public face of a faceless org.

#3 It is probably Israel's way of sending a message to BHO that he is causing problems for Israel with his ~~perceived~~ pro-Arab stance and that he is creating a more dangerous rather than a less dangerous mideast.

#4 It could also be taken as a warning. I mean, compared to the CIA, Mossad is actually relatively competent. Such if there are such things in Bambi's background that he has to pay law firms to squelch it at the rate of a million dollars a year, if Bambi isn't careful, I wouldn't put it past Mossad to arrrange a "scoop" for some reporter.

#5 "Such if there are such things in Bambi's background that he has to pay law firms to squelch it at the rate of a million dollars a year, if Bambi isn't careful, I wouldn't put it past Mossad to arrrange a "scoop" for some reporter."

I doubt ~~The Manchurian Candidiate~~ Bambi's doing the paying - the money's coming from Soros, or someone even worse.

I hope the Israelis do something like this. Late January of next year, if they think they can wait that long - otherwise, just go for it.
