The historical record demonstrates that every time when the Israeli leadership, or rather – misleadership,  of PM Netanyahu is pressed to end Israel’s international law violating occupation in conjunction with brutal  Palestinian human rights  violations,  some event occurs, or is provoked to occur, which will be then used by the the power structure as a pretext to carry out devastating collective punishment strikes on mostly innocent and unarmed Palestinians under occupation, and this is then accompanied by the relentless propaganda campaigns which are meant to convey the misleading impression that Palestinians cannot be negotiated with, period.

What is amazing this time however, is that when Netanyahu announced the abduction of the three teenagers in the occupied West Bank,  one week before that happened, the Chief of the Israeli intelligence agency, namely the Mossad, had a meeting with the PM cabinet’s ministers and proposed that the law banning any kind of prisoner exchange not be advanced, since it would not be in the best interests of Israel, particularly as it holds thousands of Palestinians in prison, many who whom have not been charged with crimes.

So, as reported in the prestigious and fairly independent Israeli newspaper Haaretz International, on June 15, 2014,  said Chief of Mossad, Tamir Pardo, in an attempt to press his concern with that said law not advance, asked the ministers  ” What will you do if in a week three 14-year-old girls will be kidnapped from one of the settlements “.

Within about one week from his statement the three teenagers were abducted.

The well-meaning Chief of Mossad plea that the law banning negotiations  not advance was not accepted by the ministers.

This is stunningly prescient abduction prophecy undoubtedly requires further investigation since it provides a clear indication that said abduction was expected if not outright encouraged to occur, if it actually occurred at all, since PM Netanyahu has not presented any proof.

What is known is that, again, a wide net has been cast for the objective of the meting out of the criminal collective punishment which thus far has resulted in 6 Palestinians being killed and some 360 being arrested.
