Oh and by the way he was smuggling weapons

Ynet reports:

Mohammed Nassar, who was an aide to Mabhouh, spoke to Hamas' al-Aqsa radio in Gaza from Damascus. A transcript was released Tuesday. . . . Nassar says Mabhouh "never stopped thinking about how to fight the occupation by supplying quality weapons to the Palestinian fighters

Ynet continues:

Meanwhile, Dubai's Chief of Police Lt. Gen. Dhahi Khalfan Tamim said he has submitted an official request to the UAE Ministry of Justice to arrest Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Mossad Chief Meir Dagan in relation to the assassination.

Khalfan Tamim said the involvement of Mossad was certain, adding that the decision to submit an international request for the arrest of Netanyahu and Dagan depends on political authorities.

Not really surprising for someone who seemingly believes in Jewish conspiracies. I like Tamim's statement:

He also said he did not believe Israel's prime minister would be arrested as a result, but emphasized that "whoever gave the order for the assassination is a murderer."

And whoever protects a terrorist smuggling arms is a terrorist too. That would make the assassination, if committed by Israel, a legitimate killing not murder.

One further observation. The New York Times focused on the Dubai police and provides some interesting details, but as Elder of Ziyon observed, remained silent about the blatant antisemitism expresses by police chief Tamim.
