The long arm of the Mossad

The last paragraph of the NYT report on the UK-Israel passports crisis notes, by-the-by:

Officials in South Africa have said that several members of the Israeli hit team left Dubai for Johannesburg on a direct flight by Emirates Airline, the Dubai flag carrier, then flew back to various destinations in Europe before catching connecting flights back to Israel.

South African news reports have quoted South African officials as saying that they were unable to comply with Dubai’s request for closed-circuit video recordings taken as the men transited through Oliver Tambo International airport in Johannesburg because the recordings had been mysteriously wiped before the Dubai request was made.

Hi Miriam,

Maybe it's just me but none of this seems to add up. The more I hear about it the more it seems like an elaborate hoax.

Why did Mossad use a team of two operatives for the (botched) attempt on Mashaal's life in Jordan in the 1990s but allegedly use a 30 man team for a relatively minor player in Dubai?

Why were they so careless with their movements?

Why would they use real passports of real Israelis?

None of it makes sense.
