Like Botching the assassination a Hamas leader back in 97, failing to predict the intifada which began in 1987, being caught spying on the US back in 86, assassinating an innocent man, and totally failing to predict the surprise Arab attack that began the Yom Kippur War in 73? Mossad was responsible for the releace of Sheik Ahmed Yessin in the late 90's.
Mossad is not the organization it was back in the 60's when it was doing things like capturing the Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann, and was already on the decline in the 70's when it was tracking down Black September, and planing the '76 raid that rescued passengers from an Air France jet. The only remotely recent major success that I can recall was the assisanation of the "Engineer" about 8 years ago.
