wimpycat's point was that the Israelis have every legitimate reason Not quite. This is his original quote:
and when the spies get caught, we don't normally have the foreign entitities who benefitted from the spy's treachery so shamelessly lobbying
The "selective snipping", as you call it, seems truer to his original statement than his disclaimer.

Actually, she's correct about that: usually, governments do not openly acknowledge their spies, nor do they engage citizens of the country which they were spying on in a campaign to get their spies released.
