Israeli ex-agent: We allowed Nazi doc to escape
The team that kidnapped Nazi mastermind Adolph Eichmann in 1960 knowingly let another notorious war criminal ? Josef Mengele ? get away, according to a former Israeli Mossad agent. Rafi Eitan was a member of the Mossad team that seized Eichmann from Buenos Aires and brought him to trial in Israel. Eitan said the agents had also located Mengele but feared that trying to nab him would endanger the Eichmann operation.
