Haaretz via Herbert Pundik, trying to portray Mossad as a force for the Good | | A respected Jewish-Danish journalist came out as an ex-Mossad spy.

If someone of such apparent impeccable political and journalistic credentials as this man can join the spooks couldn’t anyone do so? And then, who does anyone trust when it comes to reporting on the Israeli-Arab conflict?" | 6/3/2010 |
