I am sure many KoW readers also read Abu Muqawama, but let me nonetheless draw your attention to the video linked there this morning, a compilation of CCTV and security-camera footage from the murder of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh.
The video reminds me of something from Spooks, or, like AM says, Munich, but here it is of course real.
Ps. I wonder what was said to the female hotel employee at 10:57 to prompt that reaction… some light flirtation in the middle of the wetwork?

I presume that at least some of the footage is still being held back for various reasons. On the matter of the calls I have to wonder, why Austria? Do privacy laws there make communications easier?
the Mahmoud al-Mabhouh link is a dud
Thanks Eamonn – now fixed.
“This is a political war and it calls for discrimination in killing. The best weapon for killing would be a knife, but I’m afraid we can’t do it that way. The worst is an airplane. The next worse is artillery. Barring a knife, the best is a rifle — you know who you’re killing.”
