Mossad following Palestinians planning to attack Baltic ships
2002-07-11
Israeli and German intelligence services are tracking two Palestinians who they believe are planning attacks on cruise ships in the Baltic Sea, a German daily said in a report published Thursday. Israel's intelligence service, the Mossad, alerted its German counterpart after intercepting a phone conversation between the two, Die Welt said, without indicating its source. Authorities in the German port city of Hamburg followed the suspects after they went to Frankfurt. The two men later met with two other Palestinians in Hamburg, before travelling by sea to Denmark, where they are currently staying. German intelligence services and Israel’s Mossad plan to continue to track the suspects. It should be mentioned that a few weeks ago, German Interior Minister Otto Schily and federal police issued a warning of possible attacks in the Baltic Sea, probably based on information supplied by the Mossad.
Y'see, these guys never read the papers, so they have no way of knowing the intel guys're on to them, tracking their every move... Is there some authority that selects journalists at random and drops them on their heads, then sends them back to the newsroom? I have difficulty believing anyone whose eyes will focus would decide to print that story unless it had already played out to a conclusion or he/she/it was an active and enthusiastic fifth columnist...

#1  You have to wonder what planet these idiots come from. Like the nitwit who broke the story that the NSA was listening in on Binny's sat phone calls...hope whoever's "scoop" that was spends his days haunted by the blood of three thousand.

Maybe when the results of a poll like this will start to crystallize public opinion and make them think twice:
