message: As noted in a previous request, Mossad's motto is given twice, but in two different translations.  Please replace the translation in the infobox with the translation in the "Motto" section, which (despite what A09 said above) is already properly referenced. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 00:57, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

There is no source cited for this. Can anyone link any source? I am from Malta and never heard of this happening.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aleks4775 (talk • contribs) 13:14, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: There is a cited source (that's what the "124" is), though it just says that he was killed in Malta. This (last four paragraphs) has more details. Deor (talk) 13:57, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

message: In the section, "In popular culture", I would like to add the reference to the Max Einstein series by James Patterson. In the series, the characters Charl and Isabl are former agents of Mossad, and Mossad helps the main characters escape danger multiple times in the series. 2600:8802:3A0B:3000:288F:416:9A89:A73F (talk) 19:15, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
