Israel bloke----Stick it where the sun dont go.You dont always get it right.
Brit bloke-----OK OK.Could you possibly use French or Italian passports next time though?Or at least not so many British ones.
Israel bloke----I'll set the defamation league on you if you dont stop giving me a hard time.Now p1ss off.

Brilliant and probably almost word for word correct too. You know it and so do i.

Does anyone know why the govt is ACTUALLY peed off about the british passports btw? I mean the real reason they are making all this noise about it in public?

Its simply cos this type of operation is usually carried out after allies are informed of the plans. In case the target is a deep double agent to one of the allies or if the allies would rather he was left for a bit longer to seal another operational deal.
The reaons the brits are peed of about the passports being forged is that the Isaerlis did this all alone and without telling MI6 of their plans. Usualy protocal means that MI6 would provide them with the passports so they would not be spotted as forgeries and thus scupper the op.
Something has gone on that made israel say to the brits "we're not playing with you anymore" hence no passports were supplied covertly to the team carrying out the hit.

Historically allies provide real docs to use as you wont let a well planned op fail cos of a bad forgery.

Israel has a policy of not admitting or denying anything, so their enemies never know whether something was an accident or a Mossad hit.

I find it hard to imagine that Mossad really needed a team of 11 for this, so I can only imagine they're making a publicity point. Something along the lines of "anytime anyplace any where..."

well they usually use a helicopter gunship and air to ground missiles for their "targeted assassinations", crimes which are against all international laws btw,hence their policy of ambiguity on the subject.

Scenario:
A: Passports are genuine ones ' lost ' by H.M.Gov ( or their agents )
B: If you were an Israeli sanctioning this, would you trust H.M.Gov not to ' lose ' details given ?
