Mossad Agt. Arrested placing "fake bomb" in Israeli drill - Ed Jewett - 02-12-2009
Israeli Police Arrest Mossad Spy on “Training Exercise” After He Placed “Fake Bomb” Under Car
December 2nd, 2009 Mmm hmm. Israel better mobilize the brave Ziofascist Twitbook forces to clear this one up.
Via: BBC:
A trainee spy for Israel’s secret service agency Mossad was arrested by Tel Aviv police while taking part in a training operation, media reports say.
The young trainee was spotted by a female passer-by as he planted a fake bomb under a vehicle in the city.
He was only able to persuade police he was a spy after being taken in by an officer for questioning on Monday.
The authorities have refused to comment on the story although Israeli media outlets have expressed their surprise.
‘Just a drill’
Mossad does not tell local uniformed police about its training exercises.
The country’s commercial Channel 10 said it hoped the agency’s operatives were “more effective abroad”, AFP news agency reported.
Niva Ben-Harush, the woman who reported the novice’s suspicious behaviour to police, told Ynet News that 15 minutes after she made the call, Tel Aviv’s port was closed and people evacuated.
She said police initially asked her to come with them and identify the suspect.
“But after a few minutes, they told me it was just a drill,” she said.
Up to three agency employees were believed to have been suspended following the incident, Ynet reported.
It quoted the prime minister’s office as saying it did “not respond to information about such activities undertaken by security agencies or attributed to them”.

Laughed when I saw this...a drill. So Mossad effectivley admit to strapping bombs to cars as one of their practices.
Pakistan...Iraq....even the ones in Israeli cities i really would not be surprised if they were involved.

Similar happens (or at least used to happen) here. There are several that I remember and was invited to participate in which were done in 'real life' settings. One that went wrong and reached the media because civilians stumbled into it (or we stumbled into civilians more like it). All done as counter terrorism. Never terrorism because WE are the good guys and THEY are the bad guys. Don't remember if the local authorities were notified or not but sometimes they were involved too.
