Description
Israel's intelligence service, the Mossad, has intensified its covert war against Iran's nuclear program and, by some accounts, its Kidron (Bayonet) hit teams are targeting Iranian nuclear scientists for assassination as well as sabotaging the Islamic Republic's global network for procuring vital materiel. Assassinations are something the Mossad has carried out in the past to decapitate efforts by Israel's enemies to develop weapons of mass destruction that pose a mortal threat to the Jewish state. In the 1960s, it was Operation Damocles, repeated attacks against German scientists, some of them former Nazis, working with Egypt to build rockets armed with chemical warheads. Several Germans were assassinated by letter bombs. In the 1980s and 90s, it was the systematic killing of key figures in Saddam's weapons programs - at least three high-level scientists - and the bombing of European companies supplying components for the Iraqi dictator's secret program to manufacture nuclear bombs. The cores for two French-built reactors bound for Iraq were blown up in a warehouse outside Toulon, France, on April 5, 1979, in the Mossad's Operation Sphinx. There have also long been suspicions that the Mossad eliminated several of Pakistan's nuclear scientists in the late 1980s and early 1990s, at least two by poisoning, in a bid to stop the development of the "Islamic Bomb."
