Israeli Source Confirms: Brits Were Fully In On Hamas Hit

February 21, 2010 (LPAC)—A senior Israeli source, closely tied to the Netanyahu government, has confirmed that the British were fully complicit in the Mossad assassination of a prominent Hamas official in Dubai on Jan. 20. According to the source, the British intelligence services provided Mossad with all of the passports used, to conceal the identities of the hit squad members. "Not only were the British passports given to the Mossad. The Brits provided the German and Irish passports as well," the source said. "They were fully witting before the fact."

According to the source, the M.O. of the assasination was similar to the murder, decades ago, of weapons designer Gerald Bull, who was assassinated in March 1990 outside of his apartment in Brussels. He explained that the friction between the British and the Israelis after the killing of the Hamas official, was due to the fact that the Israelis obtained a large number of documents from the murdered man's briefcase, and have so far refused to share the contents with the British.
