No, I would be pretty confident that the Mossad could do this bit of Neghborhood cleanup quite effectively without you ever realizing it was done.

In Robert Bolt’s play A Man for All Seasons, Sir Thomas More speaks with a young moral zealot.

"And what", More asks him, "would you do to root out the Devil, who hides in a land thickly forested with legal protections?"
“I would chop down every law in England to get at the Devil,” the young hothead replies.
"And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned round on you-where would you hide, Roper, all the laws being flat? This country's planted thick with laws from coast to coast-Man's laws, not God's-and if you cut them down, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then?"
Keep in mind that Mossad will be operating according to what's best for Israel, rather than according to US law, or US notions of justice. Or perhaps they will just be operating according to what their current bosses happen to want. I would be as uncomfortable with Mossad hit squads in the US, as I would with Janet Reno ATF hit squads

ALL OF YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED. Despite the fact these scum bag terrorists deserve death, there is still a CONSTITUTION. Everyone, in this country including terrorists (and even worse liberals) has UNALIENABLE rights.

I can't believe that there is so much support for these unconstitutional killings on a "conservative" website.

By the way I visited the lovely area of Mordor last spring.... too humid for me. Be uncomfortable if you want. Think about isrealis ??? you think they are uncomfortable riding on busses. Going to the store to get food? celebrating satre? HHmmm. I think certain times in history the law is ignored. Lets say speeding for example.... how many cops are pulling people over for speeding that are out running a tornado. Yes the cops are uncorfortable with the dangerous speeds but there is a bigger present danger they are trying to avoid. I would ask those that are uncomfortable to hold your breath and pray it doesn't get out of hand. But for the record I can live with your discomfort I can not live with the thought that our country would by their very laws give terrorists the time place and materials to plan and execute the lives of innocent people.
