Mote, meet beam

Following claims in March 2010 that Israeli Mossad agents had used cloned British passports on a clandestine mission, the then foreign Secretary David Miliband raged:

Such misuse of British passports is intolerable

and that Israel had displayed

a profound disregard for the sovereignty of the United Kingdom.

Today we learn that the six SAS soldiers detained (and now released) in Libya

were held after going to an agricultural compound when Libyan security guards found they were carrying arms, ammunition, explosives, maps and passports from at least four different nationalities (my emphasis).

We trust most earnestly that none of those was an Israeli one.
