Here is an interesting video about the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh with a significant digression about the assassination of Hamas gun buyer Mahmud Mabhouh in Dubai in January 2010.
Mahmoud Mabhouh a senior Hamas operative was killed by the Mossad in the five-star Al Bustan Rotana Hotel in Dubai. Hamas is also the Muslim Brotherhood. Some folks questioned how the Mossad fellows cracked open the secure hotel room door. Sliding a credit card works best in the movies. They would have needed some electronic password. Maybe someone gave it to them.
The Al Bustan Rotana Hotel is owned by a Saudi billionaire prince. "By 2003, Al ------ owned 100 percent of Rotana". This is the same Prince who sent his private jet to fly someone with a serious backache problem to see a doctor in Holland or Germany - saya sudah lupa. Do you all recall that episode? The fellow made a miraculous recovery.
Anyway that Saudi prince is known to be very anti Muslim Brotherhood. So maybe 2+2 = 5? Always remember to choose your friends carefully.
The Mossad did not make a mistake in Dubai. They got their mark and all their agents got away safely. Some argued that the Mossad deliberately left a trail of bread crumbs as a warning to some others. Or even more skullduggery.
The Haniyeh hit in Teheran is much more complicated. As the video shows it was a highly secure compound where foreign leaders were regularly hosted. If the bomb was planted under the bed hours before Haniyeh's arrival there was still the great risk of the bomb being discovered by Haniyeh's security detail. Unless the bomb was cleverly hidden somehow that would escape detection. In that case much more effort and time would have been needed to place the bomb. Even the Mossad cannot be that clever.
To say that the British and Americans DO NOT ASSASSINATE people covertly is a joke. The CIA has assassinated thousands of people. Just one example was Che Guevara who was killed by the CIA.
The British have been assassinating people for centuries. Being British they use diplomatic language. They call it "rendition".
In the 1960s the British once had Indonesian Army officer Benny Moerdani in the gun sights of their snipers. Moerdani was travelling in a boat on a river in Kalimantan just across the border from Sarawak. Unexpectedly there was a white woman with Moerdani on that boat. The shot was not taken. Moerdani would go on to become General Benjamin Moerdani, Chief of the Indonesian Armed Forces (ABRI) in the 1980s and later he became Indonesia's Minister of Defense. He died in 2004.
Some skullduggery.
