Report: Mossad still using British and French passports

According to a report from deep behind the Times of London paywall, the Mossad continues to use British and French passports, complete with 'sexy women' to induce IDF soldiers on active duty to allow such use.

According to the British newspaper, there have been several occasions when foreigners who immigrated to Israel have been asked to "lend" their passports to the Israeli intelligence agency.

The daily said new evidence indicates that foreign nationals in Israel continue to allow Mossad to use their passports — "on many occasions willingly."

Though it never admitted that Mossad agents were behind the Hamas terrorist's death, Israel assured London its intelligence agency would stop using British passports.

"Matthew," who moved to Israel from London in 2009 and joined the IDF shortly afterwards, told The Times that just before his first week of army duty he was approached by a young woman from Mossad and asked if he was "committed to the State of Israel."

"She was really, really friendly. She gave me a recommendation of a good bar in Tel Aviv, and her favorite place for hummus," he said.

When she asked if Matthew was willing to do "a small thing to help", such as, for example, lend his passport, he did not refuse, The Times reported.

He said: "She pointed out that I wouldn’t need it for the next year or so. I’d be doing basic training and everything for the army. So I said 'yes’ — I was in that frame of mind of strong Zionism, you know?"

According to the report, Matthew received his passport back after 18 months of army service, and was surprised to find stamps in it from Turkey and Azerbaijan, countries that he had never visited.

"She told me it would maybe be a good idea not to go there . . . for the time being," he told the British newspaper.

I wonder how many smart IDF soldiers have taken dumb British reporters for a ride to nowhere.

Heh.
