Alleged spy: Mossad planned to recruit, kill Palestinian financier

Investigations into the espionage case of Tarek Abdel Razek Hussein revealed that the Israeli Intelligence Agency Mossad tried to recruit a Palestinian business tycoon who finances the Palestinian resistance.

Hussein said the Palestinian financier lives in South Africa from where he has sent money and arms to the resistance  for many years.

Hussein also said the Mossad instructed him to call the Palestinian businessman and arrange for meeting with him in Thailand under the pretense that Hussein wanted to donate money to the resistance. He added that the Mossad planned to assassinate the businessman in the event it failed to recruit him.
