Good morning,
I just opened a new browser and started reading Israelnationalnews this morning.
This story is so cool:

Pensioners Affairs Minister Rafi Eitan, who commanded the 1960 Mossad operation to capture fugitive Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Argentina, says the kidnapping of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a distinct possibility.
In an interview with Christoph Schult of this week's edition of the respected German magazine Der Spiegel, the former Israeli intelligence agent said that while there are no more covert Israeli missions targeting old Nazis, "that's not to say that such operations are completely a thing of the past."
Schult: "What do you mean by that?"
Eitan: "It could very well be that a leader such as Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad suddenly finds himself before the International Criminal Court in The Hague."
Schult: "Do you mean that seriously?"
Eitan: "Absolutely. Those who spread poison and want to eradicate another people [have] to expect such consequences."
Eitan's statement is all the more provocative as it was offered without prodding at the end of an interview focusing on the Minister's recent revelation that his team in Argentina in 1960 decided against abducting notorious Auschwitz sadist, Dr. Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death". His agents discovered that Mengele was also in Beunos Aires after they had already apprehended Eichmann and were preparing to bundle him off to Israel for trial.
Eichmann was subsequently tried and sentenced to death by an Israeli court for crimes against humanity, crimes against the Jewish people and membership in an outlawed organization. He was executed in May 1962 and his ashes were scattered in the international waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
I sure hope this is not just more sabre rattling which Israels leaders often do. If there is a plan to prevent the next holocaust I sure hope it is a good one.
