Mosab Hassan Yousef's Shin Bet handler a member of Smol Leumi
Debbie Schlussel reports that according to his Facebook page, Gonen Ben Itzhak (left in the picture), the Shin Bet agent who testified on behalf of Mosab Hassan Yousef at Mosab's deportation hearing, is a member of the Smol Leumi (Nationalist Left), a conglomeration of Leftist groups that claims to still be Zionist.First, there is Gonen Ben Itzhak, the man claiming he was Yousef’s Shin Bet handler. On his Facebook profile, along with promoting the Hebrew version of the “Son of HAMAS” book, Itzhak identifies himself as a member of Greenpeace Mediterranean – Israel and Smol Leumi, the Israeli National Left Party. If you like the Black Panthers, you’ll love Smol Leumi, the White Israeli version that hates Israeli settlers as much as Black Panthers hate Whitey. Smol Leumi might as well be a Palestinian group and isn’t what you’d call “tough” on Islamic terrorism. Bill Ayers would like it a lot.Hmmm. Read the whole thing. (By the way, my perception is that Smol Leumi is a bit more loyal to the State of Israel than Jane Fonda was to the US during the Vietnam War, but I haven't looked into Smol Leumi extensively enough to say for sure).
Smol Leumi repeatedly organizes protests against Jewish settlers, and one recent protest featured signs demanding that Barack Obama force Israel to give up land to the Palestinians and expel the settlers, including Jewish residents of Jerusalem. Smol Leumi uses the lingua franca of anti-Israel chic, including using terms like “occupation” to describe Israel and saying, “Zioinists are not settlers.” Think Jane Fonda during the Vietnam War. That’s Smol Leumi. If a proud Smol Leumi member is Yousef’s primary advocate–and it is–that tells me all I need to know about Son of HAMAS. He’s also son of the self-hating Israeli left. No thanks.

I do think that we know shows the Shin Bet is an agency filled with leftists who during the Rabin Era framed the Right for his death (which it couldn't manage to prevent), it exercises KGB style surveillance of Yesha's Jews while being oblivious to the threat posed by Israel's Far Left and it didn't do a great job of protecting important assets in southern Lebanon. Some security service!
If his Youssef's alleged handler is typical of the personnel within its ranks, Israel is not up to the challenge of dealing with the real threats it faces in this century. Will the notorious "Jewish" section be disbanded? Don't hold your breath waiting for it to happen.
What could go wrong indeed
