Joseph Moshe trained by Mossad to resist tear gas?

Joseph Moshe, taken in custody after a TV covered 8 hour standoff on 08/13/2009 by the LAPD, just kept sitting in his car, waiting and allegedly smoking cigarettes. In the end, the police fired several doses of tear gas at the car. Some imagine that only a trained Mossad bioweapon specialist could deal with this …

At first I thought that the gas did not reach the inside of the car, but after taking more time looking at the pictures and videos I realised that it actually was the case. Another question, still, is whether someone who has that ability has necessarily been trained by special forces. Consider cases of pathological indolence (the inability to perceive pain) – should the first explanation for why someone is in that very regrettable condition resort to speculations about previous training to resist torture?

However, in certain people’s heads, every jewish person must be connected to Israel by an invisible string the Mossad can and will pull just about any moment. The motive is classic, too: the weakest have the most devious powers in the hidden.
