Can I simply say what a help to discover person who definitely realizes just what they’re sharing on the web. You certainly get experience to take a major issue to light and enable it to be important. Even more people should study this and understand this aspect of the story. I cannot believe you aren’t more popular because you definitely have the gift.

This is much ado about nothing. First of all, I'd like a definition of "agent" here. Apparently he supplied Mossad with information. Okay, great! I applaud him! Does that make him an "agent" of the Mossad? Does that mean that if I call the police, the FBI, the CIA, etc. that I'm their agent now?

Even taking this further, apparently he was given something like $300 a month retainer by Mossad. Again, that doesn't mean much. Organizations retain help, hire experts, and offer rewards all the time. Again, does that make all these people agents?

At the end of the day, this sounds alot like someone is trying to smear Wiesenthal's name in a very subtle way. The problem is that there isn't much of any smoke here, let alone a fire….

Oh, and those little anti-Semitic bastards above…. why can't we just put them all in one place and just fence it off…. we'll call it: "The Muslim World"

This is something negative? Although given what was discussed here on the New Historians, I would question anything he writes,

What is wrong with being a mossad agent? Surely its no different than being a IDF agent?

I'll be curious to see Segev's treatment of the matter.

From what I've read of his work in the past I'm not sure if he won't try to paint any relationship with Mossad in a negative light. Also, to say that he was an agent, and to say that he had a relationship with them due to his existing work in investigating Nazi criminals are two different things.
