Evidence confirms Mossad involvement in Dubai hit

Murder in Dubai: The Killers


This video shows the pack of Israeli murderers preparing for the homicide and summarizes the rather impressive case constructed by the Dubai Police. Also, it appears that Robert Fisk’s speculations were correct: the Israelis have ensured the supine British government’s acquiescence by implicating it through a last minute notice about the murder

Dubai says new evidence, including credit card payments and phone calls made by suspects, confirms the involvement of Israel’s spy agency in the recent assassination of a top Hamas official.

“Dubai police have information confirming that the suspects purchased travel tickets from companies in other countries with credit cards carrying the same names we have publicized (in the passports),” the Arabic-language Al Bayan daily quoted Dubai police chief Dahi Khalfan Tamim as saying on Saturday.

Hamas commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh was found dead in his room in a luxury Dubai hotel on January 20, a day after arriving in the emirate.

Dubai Police issued arrest warrant for the 11 suspects, including 10 men and a woman, saying the passports they used to enter the United Arab Emirates were issued in European countries.

Six of the suspects carried British passports; three others had Irish passports, while the other two possessed French and German documents.


Dubai police on Thursday called for the head of Mossad to be arrested, if the spy agency was proven to be behind the murder.

Der Spiegel: The Mossad’s Kidon unit assassinated Mabhouh

[ 21/02/2010 - 10:08 AM ]

GAZA, (PIC)-- The German Der Spiegel magazine said that that the Mossad’s Kidon unit, responsible for killing and kidnapping missions, might be behind the assassination of senior Qassam commander Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh in Dubai.

According to Der Spiegel, the Mossad used during this operation a real German passport issued in 2009 in Cologne city belonging to an Israeli called Michael Bodenheimer.

It added that Bodenheimer applied in the early summer of last year for German travel documents with the authorities in Cologne and was given a passport after he submitted personal documents proving his German origin.

In the same context, Gordon Thomas, a specialist in Israeli intelligence affairs, said that there is evidence confirming that the Kidon unit assassinated Mabhouh, whose name topped the hit list of the Mossad.

Thomas underlined that Kidon includes the most highly-trained members of the Mossad who can work undercover and under harsh physical and psychological pressure, noting that members of this unit are completely isolated from other Mossad agents.

He added that the disastrous results of the Dubai operation exterminated one third of this unit members and dealt a heavy blow to the Mossad.

For its part, the London-based Palestine Telegraph newspaper reported Saturday that the investigations conducted in one of the European countries, it refused to name, indicated that the European passports used in Dubai operation were not counterfeit and issued officially for the Mossad through immigration officers.

Chief of Dubai police Dahi Tamim, for his part, told the UAE Bayan newspaper that the police obtained recorded telephone calls that took place between the assassins of Mabhouh and have information proving that they also used credit cards to buy travel tickets bearing the same names of the passports.

In another related context, the Lebanese Safir newspaper said that a representative of an Arab country slammed UN under-secretary-general for political affairs Lynn Pascoe for not including any reference to the possible involvement of the Mossad in the assassination of a Hamas official in Dubai in his weekly report on the situation in the Middle East.

The Arab official added that Pascoe refers to every little detail in his weekly reports submitted to the UN Security Council on the Middle East and it is reprehensible to ignore what happened in Dubai.

Other newspapers criticized the performance of the Mossad during the Dubai operation, where the French Dernier Novell da Alsace newspaper said that the Mossad lost its prestige which it used to have and became incapacitated when its agents were compromised.

The Israeli Haaretz newspaper, for its part, condemned the Mossad members as amateurs living in the past and using old-fashioned techniques, and added that Israel’s era of intelligence work has ended when it was culminated with this failure.

For its part, the Movement of Hamas held Israel fully responsible for the assassination of Mabhouh in Dubai and said it would face the consequences of its crime sooner or later.

Hamas also called on Saturday on the European countries to seriously take a strong position against Israel and prosecute leaders of the Mossad for their involvement in the crime.
