This I am not so sure. We are talking about a country that managed to develop nuclear weapons in secrecy, and whose secret service is known for killing off people all around the world. It would be surprising to say the least if they didn't participate in information warfare at all.
That said, American evangelical Christians seem happy to act as their disinformation footsoldiers free of charge...
I never claimed they did not have one, that actually directly contradicts what I said in my comment.
I said they fucking suck at it, as in, are of very low skill and quality at performing the related tasks. Looking at their performance recently, would you say Mossad currently is functioning very well, and Israel is regularly getting all the intelligence it needs?
Additionally, Israel's nuke program was very likely developed in partnership with other countries. It's also not like it was some triumph for Mossad or something, giving them primary credit seems a little odd to me. Did the CIA deserve credit for the Manhattan Project?
Re-read what I said, and please pay attention to what I actually say, and let me know what you really think.
