Israel's Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman arrives at the European Union council headquarters during a EU foreign ministers meeting in Brussels Monday. European Union foreign ministers are expected to condemn assassinations and the use of fake passports on Monday, a move designed to censure Israel over the Dubai assassination of a Palestinian militant.

'No proof' of Israeli part in killing of a Hamas leader, says foreign minister.
Israeli foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman yesterday flatly rebuffed David Miliband's request for cooperation with an investigation into the use of forged British passports in the assassination of a Hamas leader.
The request for assistance came as the total number of fake British passports believed to have been used in last month's assassination rose from six to eight.

My Comment: This is not the first time Mossad/Israel has used foreign passports to enter countries for the purpose of assassination. In 1997 an attempt on a Hamas official in Jordan was done by Israeli agents using forged Canadian passports. But unlike the Dubai hit, these Mossad agents were captured with their fake documents.

You're right that its all bullshit from most of these Israeli arse licking countries...but you are wrong that it shouldn't be dealt with. What would you think if your passport was used for a killing...wether the man was innocent or not? Would you feel comfortable with that?
