Kill Them Wherever You Find Them Read Free

see to that. When you submit in-house updates and other reports you

This protects your identity should somebody, who ought not to,
somehow access the report."
    "Ideally we would have preferred that you not
even know one another’s real names. Given your backgrounds enough
of you have already met at scientific conferences, lectures, and at
times even engaged in collaborative research that such anonymity
would be at once impractical and impossible."
    "Remember to alter your habits, never drive
to or from home the same way twice in a row. While we are all happy
with the convenience of the light rail between Tel Aviv and
Jerusalem, using public transport is highly discouraged while a
member of this team except under the most unusual of
circumstances."
    "Don't shop or do other chores on a schedule
with discernible patterns, and try to alter the places where you
shop. Avoid patterns in times and routes as well as daily routines.
Avoid fast food, far too easy to slip drugs. Also avoid easy
abduction zones: crowded venues such as malls, sports events, and
theaters. Ask family members to also avoid such venues. Good luck
with that for those with teenagers."
    More laughter – though not from those who
actually had teen offspring.
    "Finally during one of your psychological
profile written exams you were asked if you had known Adolf Hitler
as a child, and you had absolute foreknowledge of what he would do
as an adult, could you kill him? Everybody here answered in the
affirmative."
    "I want you, while away from this
environment, to consider not only the consequences of such an
action for yourself emotionally and mentally but also what such an
action would have on the course of history - past and present - for
individuals, families, groups, societies, and entire nations."
    "Consider also the oft-cited theoretical time
conundrum: I go back in time to see my grandparents when they were
young. By sad accident I kill my grandfather before he sires my
father. Now, if I do so, my father is never born and I; therefore,
am never born. Were I never born I couldn't have gone back in time
to accidentally kill my grandfather! What is the outcome? What
might be the specific and general implications of such an
event?"
    "If that is everything, Shabbat shalom."
    "Shabbat shalom" the group spoke in near
unison as they stood to begin their exodus from the conference
room.
    "Dr. Stauffenberg, I know you have taken
Ulpan studies. If your Hebrew isn’t fluent just yet, I wished all a
peaceful Sabbath. Being a Mormon you also observe a Saturday
Sabbath while you are in the State of Israel – so my Sabbath
blessing applies to you as well! Just remember to not meet with the
small Mormon community here. I'm afraid you must observe Shabbat by
yourself for the duration; we can't run the risk of somebody
recognizing you."
    "Toda rabba Moshe, v'Shabbat shalom alecha
yedeed shellee. I'll see you next week. I look forward to getting
to work." Dr. Levin was surprised and pleased with Jeff's brief
Hebrew response, spoken with a near perfect Ashkenazi accent.
Though he knew Dr. Stauffenberg had been studying Hebrew, he didn't
realize how much he'd learned in such a short period of time.
    After everybody departed for their various
destinations Moshe went back to work. Though the Sabbath was to
begin after the first three stars could be seen in the evening sky,
he still had much to do in far too little time. The stars would
just have to wait.
    Moshe conference-called the General and the
Prime Minister to update them on the progress made over the last
several days.
    His next call went to his wife, Rivka,
letting her know he'd be home late yet again. So many long hours as
he established his career; she patient with missed meals, broken
dates, forgotten birthdays and anniversaries. A good and
understanding woman, Moshe knew he was one
