Satan’s Army

I had no intention to keep nagging my readers with the meaning of Hebrew words, but the topic of this article is the Mossad and some insight may be achieved by looking at its motto(s). Mossad's former motto was taken from Proverbs 24:6 “For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.” The new one is from Proverbs 11:14 “Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.”

In the English translation of the Hebrew text it is difficult to realize that only one word is repeated in both verses: “tahbulot” (the “h” is pronounced like the “ch” in “loch”). This means the people of that organization consider it the heart and soul of the motto and – consequently – of their organization. How is that soul?

Heart of Darkness

As I recently commented most Hebrew words are constructed upon a root of three consonants. In the case of “tahbulot” the root is H.B.L. which roughly means “disrupt.” The emphasis is on a bad disruption; not “Please sir, stop for ten minutes and have a coffee with me,” but the dropping of hot coffee on someone in order to force a break. “Tahbulot” may be translated as “disrupting tricks.” “With disrupting tricks you shall make war” is a good translation of the first motto, while the new one begins with “without disrupting tricks the people shall fall…”

Moreover, words derived from the same root are used for the Hebrew word for “terrorist,” namely “mehabel” (note the appearance of the same root H.B.L in the word). In other words, the Mossad defines itself as a terrorist organization specializing in disrupting tricks. This is extraordinary. Many years before Justice Goldstone and the Human Rights Commission of the UN defined Israel as a terrorist organization, Israel did it by itself. Simply, most people don’t read Hebrew.

Passports

On January 20, one of the founders of Hamas's military wing, the Izz al-Din Qassam Brigades, Mr Mahmoud al-Mabhouh was assassinated in a hotel room in Dubai. The event is attributed to the Mossad to the extent that Lt Gen Dahi Khalfan - Dubai's police chief - said Interpol should issue a red notice to approve the arrest of Meir Dagan, the head of Mossad. Israel claims the Dubai police chief had provided no incriminating proof, but didn’t deny the accusation.

Several fake passports from European countries and Australia are believed to have been used by the several suspects in the killings and the affair is far from approaching a peaceful end. The Hebrew media chose a strange approach to the issue. The Mossad is not openly attributed the assassination, but its responsibility is not denied. Moreover, ten of the suspects have been identified as living in Israel. Some of these people were interviewed by Haaretz – the most serious Israeli newspaper. All of them claim their passports were falsified. The most bizarre reaction was one of the victims claiming that “he can only laugh about the issue.”

This is a disturbing reaction to an even more disturbing event. Apparently the Mossad stole identities of Israeli citizens with double citizenship to perpetrate an assassination. The assassins were too cowards to use their own names. In this, the State of Israel has transformed its own citizens into hostages, sticking state crimes on them.

State Hostages

I can identify myself with these people. “There is no such a thing as an Israeli refugee,” many would say immediately after hearing the term for the first time. This prejudice has such deep roots that certain countries – like the UK – do not accept applications for political asylum from Israeli citizens. As if they haven’t read the Goldstone report, they claim Israel is a democracy and thus people cannot be politically persecuted there. Now, the UK saw how the State of Israel used British passports to incriminate Israeli citizens who were not the assassins. The Israeli assassins –Mossad agents – cowardly hide under the protection of the Israeli government. More
