The folks on TYT have been on quite a tirade against Israel recently. Last night, they were pointing their finger at Robert Maxwell, one time owner of The Mirror and Macmillan Publishers, who they claimed was a Mossad agent, who used his media holdings to advance Israeli propaganda.
From the Wiki entry:
The British Foreign Office suspected Maxwell of being a secret agent of a foreign government, possibly a double agent or a triple agent, and "a thoroughly bad character and almost certainly financed by Russia". He had known links to the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6), to the Soviet KGB, and to the Israeli intelligence service Mossad.[59]
Shortly before Maxwell's death, Ari Ben-Menashe, a former employee of Israel's Military Intelligence Directorate, approached a number of news organisations in Britain and the US with the allegation that Maxwell and the Daily Mirror's foreign editor, Nicholas Davies, were both long-time agents for Mossad. Ben-Menashe also claimed that, in 1986, Maxwell informed the Israeli Embassy in London that Mordechai Vanunu revealed information about Israel's nuclear capability to The Sunday Times, then to the Daily Mirror. Vanunu was subsequently kidnapped by Mossad and smuggled to Israel, convicted of treason and imprisoned for eighteen yearsen.wikipedia.org - Robert MaxwellMaxwell had nine spawn, including convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.
I just found that interesting.
