FORMER ISRAELI DEPUTY DEFENCE MINISTER BRIG. GENERAL EPHRAIM SNEH

Mossad Spy Chief in Top Secret Saudi GIP Intel Talks ntelligence sources in the Middle East have confirmed that the Mossad’s Director, Meir Dagan, held secret talks with Saudi Arabian spy chiefs in Riyadh in early July. The mainstream media seemed oblivious to the event which was first reported upon by the right-leaning World Net Daily. Dagan allegedly met with Muqrin bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud, President of the General Intelligence Presidency (GIP). This organisation is the most important element contained within the Kingdom’s complicated intelligence structure.

Mr Dagan apparently discussed Iran’s nuclear weapons programme as well as the increasing likelihood of an Israeli air strike against selected targets in Iran.

What is known, is that since the turn of the year, Israel and Saudi Arabia have liaised and cooperated on a whole range of subjects, this as an increasing number of Arab states believe a nuclear weapon in Iranian hands would be more unstable than the 200 or so already in the possession of Tel Aviv.

Some senior news editors in Israel were informed several IDF (Israel Defence Force) missions have already taken place in Saudi Arabia and over its airspace. Perhaps most significant, the

moment when aviation enthusiasts reported strange commentary coming from Saudi air controllers that suggested its air space was closed down for a few hours. This coincided with a top secret IAF operation which saw several Israeli warplanes fly south before crossing east over the Kingdom enroute to Iran. South of Kuwait and North of Bahrain the formation briefly separated simulating four or five flight paths to various targets in Iran.

Intelligence analysts working with photographic evidence increasingly supplied by Israel’s burgeoning spy satellite programme, have already issued a listing of primary targets.

Main: 2009 Russian Tor M2E. A formidable mobile air defence system. Moscow has sold Iran several Tor 1 (inset) surface-toair units which could well have been upgraded. The Mossad suspects these systems and other land defences are in place around Iran’s main nuclear sites.

IAF warplanes may well have to face a gauntlet if they enter Iranian airspace.

Interestingly, the NATO reporting name for the Tor is indeed ‘GAUNTLET’.

In 2005, Iran signed a contract with Moscow for the advanced Russian S-300 missile system. No units have thus been delivered.

Meir Dagan, 64, is one of the longest serving heads of any of the world’s premier intelligence services. Appointed as Mossad director in 2002, Dagan has overseen numerous covert operations that have spanned the globe.

There were calls, however, for Dagan to resign after a Mossad team were exposed in Dubai following the assassination of Hamas commander Mahmoud alMabhouh. Some security pundits said he was going to resign in October 2010, though this seems highly unlikely. Indeed, just recently he asked to remain for another 12 months. In Tel Aviv, many intelligence watchers believe this is to oversee one of the most dangerous and potentially damaging operations ever conducted by Israel - the bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities.
