I like the way the Isreali's operate in terms of terrorism. You don't read about it in the papers or see it on television. If they know someone is an operative in a terrorist cell, they silently take them out the old fashioned way.
That's the way U.S. intelligence worked in the cold war era and we never debated it because we never knew what was going on...
And what's wrong with that?

The ISraeli's aren't confused about who the enemy is unlike the dems who play at national security for partisan political gain, look at their hypocracy on Gitmo and Pelosi on EIT.....

Executive order prevents the US from doing that...if it wasn't overturned at some point in the last 35 or so years since it was forced on the CIA and military.

Congress, the media, voters, the general public, the international community...
It would make Iran-Contra look like a day at the park compared with the powder keg that this polarized Congress would bring.
Then why doesn't any member of the "international community" complain about Mossad? I'll tell you why...it's because no one knows what they do but them. A pretty good strategy in my op.

If you really think we don't operate from a Mossad-type playbook I think you are seriously deluded. The idea of asking why the U.S. government doesn't do things that nobody knows they are doing seems rather contradictory. Look up the School of the Americas, for starters.
The problem with clandestine "black ops" is the significant blowback. It wreaked havoc in Latin America in the 1980s and it did nothing to stabilize the middle east. On a small scale, "taking out" hard and soft targets is something every military power in the world does in the name of security, Mossad being the most prolific because of a few high profile incidents.

Mossad doesn't have the history of rigging elections, taking out democratically elected leaders, aligning themselves with terrorist groups du jour and arming multiple sides in a conflict. They are also much smaller in scope and more precisely aimed than the CIA. But to say nobody ever complains about mossad is supremely ignorant. You're talking about the U.S. public when you say that, not the international community.

They have gotten plenty of criticism for their actions over the years...
Adolf Eichmann's kidnapping for one. The letter bombing of those behind the Munich Olympic kidnapping/murders being another. There's the infamous Lillehamer Affair where they murdered an innocent man alongside his pregnant wife...

The differencing is between documented procedures and actual "field work".. personally do not have a problem with taking care of business when it needs to be done, my issue is condoning such.. sometimes things happen in the spur of the moment, but when as a society we sanction it then as a society we are complicit and co-conspirators..
