“We use our femininity because any means is valid,” confirmed Efrat, the most senior female operational commander in the Mossad. “But even if we think that the way to advance the mission is to sleep with [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad’s chief of staff, no one in the Mossad would allow us to do it. Women agents are not used for sexual purposes. We flirt, but the line is drawn at sex.”

Have you read any of Victor Ostrovsky’s books? “By Way of Deception” is a good read.

The Mossad works only for Israel, and in that vain they can and will work against the USA, including seducing officials at the highest levels.

I read somewhere once, and sorry, I do not remember where, that some rabbi had been asked if it was permissible, or a sin, or something, for a married woman to sleep with a man other than her husband in the service of Israel.

I don't even remember the context of the question, or why it was asked. But I remember that the answer was they should get divorced first, then re-marry after the operation was over.

This was before 9/11, you understand. The answer struck me as preposterous, and I'm sure it was from the rabbi of a crack-pot Jewish sect. But it is a similar answer to the one some imam gave recently about was it alright for a jihadist to have engage in homosexual acts in advancing jihad.

I just wonder what the jihadist would think of a woman having an affair. Oh wait, I know. Think of the female suicide bombers who were seduced by jihadists then blackmailed to blow something up along with themselves.

I doubt there are any lines at all ... at least of that variety. I’ve heard stories of female interrogators stripping down as “torture” to devout Muslim terrorists, or even explicit male/female sexual contact between interrogators in front of subjects.

Doesn’t sound all that torturous to me. But, I don’t doubt it happens under the right circumstances.

Mossad will assassinate, for goodness sake. Certainly they’re not going to get squeamish asking a female agent to take one for the team.

It is a lot easier to sell that line to children, than to adults.

By reputation the Mossad uses a lot of Honey Pot ops. And call me naïve, but I have a hard time believing that the no-sex honeypot is a very effective technique.

In the case of the guy who was blabbing their nuclear secrets, they used a female agent to lure him to Italy (so as not to embarrass Maggie Thatcher by grabbing him in the UK). And I have to believe the guy had at least a couple of samples before he picked-up and went there with her.
