Am I the only one who sees that a number of the passport photos look like they could be the same person, either at different times, fake hair/features, or image manipulation?
I'm also wondering why it takes 26 Mossad agents to take out one Hamas guy (who some reports said had entered the country on a... gasp... fake passport).
These aren't the actual people involved - being undercover, cladestine, and secret and all the actual kill team traveled under false/forged/stolen passports.
Of course it was Mossad.
If it was Fatah pay back they would just blown up the whole hotel.
If it was Hamas - they cant tell one jew from another, they would have just gone for the nearest cafe/bus and hoped for the best.
If it was Syria they would gone for a car bomb going off at a busy intersection.
If it was Iran they'd have used a truck borne IED.
The CIA would have gone for unmanned aerial vehicle/drone.
Al Qaeda would have used a airplane.
The Taliban would have only managed to blow up themselves.
The Russians would have used Pulonium poisoning and the guy would still be lying in hospital wasting away in front of the cameras. Ok, I kid, the Russians have been assassinating people all over the damn joint lately and there was this precedent in Dubai only a year ago:
Chechen dissident Yamadayev assassinated in Dubai - Los Angeles Times
The Ukranians would have fucked it up and just given the guy a bad facial.
The Bulgarians would have used a poison tipped umbrella.
Clearly it was the Israelis. Not one of their best however.
