Jerusalem – Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman said in a meeting of close associates that Israel should assassinate Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal despite the fact that he resides in Qatar, Channel 2 reported Monday.

According to the report, Liberman said in the meeting that killing Mashaal is the only way to ensure that further infiltration tunnels from Gaza to Israel will not be built in the future.
The foreign minister added that Mashaal was responsible for and had funded terror attacks which have killed hundreds of Israelis.
Mashaal, the political bureau chief of the Palestinian Islamist group, was Hamas’ Jordanian branch chief in 1997, when Mossad agents poisoned him to death in an assassination attempt in Amman.
The Mossad agents were arrested by Jordanian authorities. King Hussein threatened to sever ties with Israel and to try the Mossad agents unless Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who ordered the assassination on Mashaal in retaliation for a suicide bombing committed in Jerusalem that year, turned over the antidote.
After some hesitation, Netanyahu relented, and Mashaal’s life was saved.
Even if this was a good idea, which it is NOT, why does this fool Liberman feel the need to discuss it publicly. He is inviting his own assassination.
Why would you publicly call for his assassination? Do you need to tip him off before you do it? Loose lips sink ships!
Qatar shpuld be called into question for harboring a terrorist. Hate of Israel is daily reading for the criminal pagan slobs.
stupid man. that’s exactly what a fatwa is–why stoop to the levels of these lowlifes? Stupid!!!
Not a good idea. And Liberman is opening himself up to be the next Kahane.
You have my blessing
We need to let Asra Kadisha know about this plan immediately. Mashaal might be Jewish.
Funny article :”when Mossad agents poisoned him to death in an assassination attempt in Amman.”
They poisoned him to death, but he didn’t die.
In any case, what’s the chiddush? Shouldn’t all terrorists be killed?
If this was a sensible idea that would have teeth – don’t you think would have been completed.
I say carpet bomb the bastards – why risk the troops
great idea
It’s a good idea, but it’s a mistake to speak about it. When the time is right he’ll meet a mysterious untimely death with no evidence linking it to any government.
Lieberman is the new secretary of state compared to Abba Eban he is a shmigege
Knocking off the Arab yemach sh’mo would make the tunnels stop?
You kill one another ten come out they are like roaches
