To: Convert from ECUSA; All
Some of the Mossad’s operations:

* Achieving the "Secret Speech" of Nikita Khrushchev, where he condemning the crimes of Stalin.

* Locating and returning to his family Yossele Shumacher, a small boy who was kidnapped in Israel and spirited abroad.

* Pursuing Nazi war criminals, culminating in the capture of Adolf Eichmann and bringing him to justice in Israel. (1960)

* Bringing a complete Soviet Mig-21 to Israel, just a year before the Six Day War. The information collected from the plane was a major contribution to the IAF's absolute success in the war. The USA, who considered the Mig-21 as the "horror of the west", and who tried to achieve this plane as well, received the plane from Israel later that year. (1966)

* After the Munich massacre, the Mossad carried the Wrath of God operation, in which the "Black September" terrorists who participated in the massacre, were eliminated, including the leader of "Black September". (1972-1979)

* Assisting IDF special forces to locate and eliminate senior PLO terrorists in Beirut. (1973)

* Achieving the information that allowed IDF special forces to rescue the hijacked "Air-France" Israeli Passengers in Entebbe, Uganda. (1977)

* Achieving the information that allowed the IAF to attack the Iraqi Osiraq nuclear reactor, just days before Iraq would have reached the "point of no-return". (1981)

* Kidnapping the atomic spy, Mordechai Vaanunu, and bringing him to Israel for a trial. (1986)

* Bringing over 14,000 black Ethiopian Jews to Israel from a hostile territory, within 33 hours. (1991)

These are only a sample of the Mossad’s operations, which include collecting information in accordance with priority intelligence requirements, covert relations with other countries and intelligence agencies – making major contributions to the peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan –redeeming MIA’s, technology and research.

Hope the info helped.
