#2 .....It would be so nice if the Mossad said to this notional asset, "We will give you something better than money - we will give you your life. If we ever tell you to be at certain place at a certain time, be there. We'll get you out before it hits the fan."

#4 I'm reminded of James Jesus Angleton and the massive turmoil within the CIA searching for the mole, and the Hanson story that moles can be anyone. Some cultures are especially vulnerable to believe in betrayal by the most trusted, because they have it as an embedded cultural norm. Iran comes to mind and tremendous damage can be wrought by mere inference, even when it is so unlikely, or is it?

Yah, played in the movie by Sasha Baron Cohen; he essentially took a turn playing a jewish master operative named Kamil and then turned around and called us all nazis. Ain't political theatre grand?
