Israel Matzav: Mossad t-shirt sales up tenfold since link to Mabhouh liquidation

Mossad t-shirt sales up tenfold since link to Mabhouh liquidation

Sales of Mossad t-shirts (third and fourth from left in the picture) have risen tenfold since the agency was linked to the liquidation of Hamas terrorist and arms dealer Mahmoud al-Mabhouh last month.

Despite the fact that Israeli leaders are refusing to confirm or deny Mossad involvement, orders for the garments have flooded in over the past few weeks – from Israelis and particularly from diaspora Jews.

Eran Davidov, marketing manager of a top mail order company selling Israeli-made products, told The Irish Times they have been overwhelmed by demand since they launched a special “Show off your Mossad and Israeli pride” campaign earlier this week.

“Don’t Mess With the Mossad” next to a picture of a pistol is top of the T-shirt range. Another popular T-shirt has the word Mossad with the letter “o” replaced by a circular target used on a rifle range, with the organisation’s title underneath: “The Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations.” The word Mossad in Hebrew next to a pistol is also on offer.

Mr Davidov said that since the launch of the marketing campaign the company has received dozens of e-mails and blog messages expressing pride in the ability of Mossad to strike with impunity throughout the Arab world.

Mossad-theme souvenirs are now definitely in.

The t-shirts in the picture may be ordered here. Maybe I should get one for my next trip to the States. That'll drive TSA wild.

Heh.
